Home Minister Amit Shah has said that India’s decision not to sign the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) reflects Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s strong leadership and unflinching resolve to protect the national interest in all circumstances.
In a tweet, Mr Shah said, the decision will ensure support to India’s farmers, MSME sector, dairy and manufacturing sectors pharmaceutical, steel and chemical industries.
PM Modi’s firm stand over the years of not going ahead with a deal if our interests are not taken care off, is a welcome break from the past, where a weak UPA government ceded precious ground on trade and could not protect national interest, the tweet continues.
India’s decision to not sign RCEP is a result of PM @narendramodi’s strong leadership & unflinching resolve to ensure national interest in all circumstances.
It shall ensure support to our farmers, MSMEs, dairy & manufacturing sector, pharmaceutical, steel & chemical industries.

Participating in RCEP summits 2019, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said yesterday that India will not join the mega Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) deal as negotiations failed to address New Delhi’s outstanding issues and concerns.
Prime Minister Modi made the announcement during his speech at the RCEP Summit at Bangkok, which was attended by several world leaders. Mr Modi said, the present form of the RCEP Agreement does not fully reflect the basic spirt and the agreed guiding principles of the RCEP.
