New Delhi: India has expressed significant concerns regarding various actions taken by China at the World Trade Organization (WTO), amplifying its scrutiny of non-transparent subsidies that lead to an influx of low-priced, inferior goods into the country, adversely affecting local industries.

During the WTO meeting, India strongly criticized China's trade policies, labeling them as unfair and harmful to equitable global trade practices. Indian representatives raised issues related to China's state subsidies, intellectual property violations, and market access barriers that hinder Indian businesses.

India's position reflects its increasing frustration with what it views as China's aggressive trade tactics that disrupt competition. Officials noted that these policies not only impact Indian exporters but also pose a threat to the stability of the wider international trading system.
