India uk fta: The historic free trade agreement between India and Britain was approved on Thursday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that after this a big market opened for India.

In the last nearly a decade, India proceeded on such a deal with a developed economy in the world.
Many obstacles before FTA
In fact, even though the dialogue of the Free Trade Agreement between India and Britain was going on for three years, the seeds for this were poured 18 years ago on 28 June 2007 when India started negotiations on bilateral trade and investment agreement with the UK. However, Tony Blair had to resign from the post of Prime Minister of Britain immediately after that. However, for further conversation, he went on to prepare some groundworks.
Despite this, the beginning of the conversation could not move forward, until the UK decided to get out of the Brexit and India from RCEP (Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership) i.e. from the Regional Vyapak Economic Partnership headed by China.
How did it take so many years,
After this, India started talks with Britain, European Union and Australia as looking for a new market for its goods and services. After this, the conversation with fast went ahead, because the Modi government was trying a lot on the FTA during the first term.
During the tenure of Boris Johnson, the Indo-Britain FTA was accelerated. It was only after a deep conversation on it for months, Johnson set a new time limit to finalize it.
However, within three months, Boris Johnson had to resign from the post and the free trade agreement between India-Bitten fell into the balance. Rishi Sunak has publicly objected to the visa concession of many ministers of the cabinet, although he was about his objections business visas.
Finally, in the midst of the pressure from Kir America, Britain’s Prime Minister Kir Stmper decided to move forward on it. However, it was talked about three years and fourteen rounds in implementing it and it was finalized a few hours before Operation Sindoor.
