Earlier this week, in a conversation with the Business Standard, Mahajan said, "When the World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements were being inked, even then, the SJM believed that instead of multilateral agreements, we should pursue bilateral agreements.
We were against multilateral agreements like the WTO for various reasons, including TRIPS, TRIMS, and agreements on services and agriculture, as they endangered public health, farmers’ welfare, and our sovereign right to make laws.
So [between] India and China, who are the main competitors so far as the US markets are concerned — may it be chemicals or other kinds of products, and despite the fact that Indian industries have not been able to compete in India, but they compete in US — we may get a relative advantage,” he said.
