India aims to secure easier market access for mangoes and grapes while fast-tracking visas for skilled workers in discussions with the US at the India-US Trade Policy Forum on January 13-14. The forum, co-chaired by Piyush Goyal and US Trade Representative Katherine Tai, will address trade-related issues, including India's new authorization system for IT hardware imports. Despite assurances that the system won't expand, concerns linger, with the US fearing potential business obstacles. India's move to restrict imports, citing national security, will be discussed bilaterally. The talks also cover WTO cases and strengthening intellectual property rights between the two leading trading partners.
