If Donald Trump becomes the President of America, will India suffer or benefit? Understand

US Election 2024: Elections are going to be held in America, the world’s oldest democratic country. America will elect its new President on November 5. Along with the President, the Vice-President will also be elected. The whole world is keeping an eye on the presidential elections to be held in America. At a time when there is a war situation in many countries of the world, every country is wondering how the new President of America will solve this problem.

America is a country whose policies impact the entire world. This political war between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump will affect other countries of the world including India. India’s relations were good even under the Biden government and before that the situation was better during the Trump government also. However, experts consider Trump’s rule better for India. In such a situation, do you know what benefits India can get if Trump government is formed?

What would be the benefit if Trump becomes President?

1-Trump’s economic policies are in favor of India

Which country does not want to strengthen economic relations with America? Every country wishes to have better trade relations with America. Today India has also become a big market in the world. From China to America do not want to lose the opportunity to invest in India. In such a situation, even Trump would not want to miss this opportunity. Trump is also being discussed because the report of global financial services group Nomura has said that due to Trump’s policies, there can be more benefits in bilateral trade.

Relations between the two countries will improve

The whole world has seen the friendship between Trump and PM Modi. If Trump once again becomes the President of America then bilateral relations are expected to improve. Its hallmarks have been seen in Trump’s first term as President. PM Modi visited America in the year 2019 and addressed the Howdy Modi program on September 22 at the NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, USA. During this time, the whole world had seen the friendship between Trump and PM Modi.

After this, the very next year i.e. in the year 2020, when Trump visited India on 24th February, ‘Namaste Trump’ was organized here in Ahmedabad. Trump constantly calls PM Modi his friend and praises him profusely on many occasions. In such a situation, if Trump once again becomes the President, India’s bilateral relations with America will improve.

Trump will support India against neighboring countries

India is always troubled by its neighbors especially Pakistan and China. However, BRICS relations with China seemed to be improving. PM Modi and Xi Jinping met but it is difficult to believe in the dragon so soon. In such a situation, if Trump’s government is formed then India will benefit. Trump was strict regarding China even in his first term. In such a situation, his approach will benefit India. By showing strictness against China, Trump can increase bilateral relations with India in the defense and technology sector.

Not only this, Trump’s stand on terrorism is the same as that of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In this context, both can come together against Pakistan also. This will also benefit India from security point of view.

Crude oil price may go down

At present, the price of crude oil remains unstable due to war in Middle Eastern countries. In such a situation, a big advantage of Trump’s arrival can be that if he takes America out of the Paris Agreement, then energy companies will benefit from it. They will be able to sell oil by fixing the price as per their own and India will also benefit from this.

India’s stand in Kashmir will be strengthened

While Pakistan talks about mediation on Kashmir, India bluntly replies that Kashmir is an integral part of India and India will not tolerate any other country’s interference in this matter. Trump supports this thinking. He is not in favor of interference in the internal affairs of other countries.

what will be the loss

The biggest loss that can happen once Trump becomes President will be to Indian students studying in America. Visa rules may become even stricter under Trump’s government and this may increase difficulties for people coming to America and foreign students studying. Trump emphasizes on ‘merit-based immigration’ on many occasions. This clearly means that the one who is skilled will get a visa in America.

Even before this, when Trump had his first term, he had tried to limit the H-1B visa program. It is also being said that this time they are going to tighten the rules regarding L-1 visa (transfer from one company to another). Not only this, the Optional Practical Training (OPT) OPT program, which allows international students to work in America for three years after graduation, may also see cuts.

His America First plan can be harmful for those coming to America from other countries to work and study.
