Mehbooba Mufti asks PM to reconsider move to remove additional duties on apples, walnuts imported from US
PDP president Mehbooba Mufti has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reconsider the decision to remove additional duties on imported apples, walnuts, and almonds from the US. Mufti stated that this decision will have a devastating impact on the horticulture industry in Jammu and Kashmir, which is already facing significant losses. The government had previously imposed these additional levies in 2019 as a retaliatory measure to US tariffs on certain steel and aluminum items.
