India retained a lower tariff rate of 10%, instead of the proposed 12.5%, after the  \nU.S. recently banned imports of goods produced through forced labour.  \nKEY PERSPECTIVES FOR EXAM  \nAn article titled “India’s Foreign Policy Must Look Seaward” by Syed Akbaruddin in The Hindu highlights the need to make seafarer safety central to India’s maritime diplomacy. In this context, the following points are noteworthy:  \n• Indian seafarers often work across many jurisdictions, making responsibility unclear during attacks, detention or abandonment.  \n• This matters because India has about 3.2 lakh seafarers, forming over 12% of the global seafarer workforce.  \n• Recent West Asia-linked attacks show their vulnerability, with several Indian seafarers killed, injured or stranded on commercial ships.  \n• The problem is not limited to West Asia, as risks also exist in the Red Sea, Black Sea, Gulf of Aden and West Africa.  \n• India’s Seafarer First response, with dashboards and family liaison officers, is useful but must become a permanent protocol for high-risk zones.  \n• But, India should also work with countries like the Philippines and Indonesia to push global standards on repatriation, detention, conflict-zone deployment and seafarer safety.  \nAn article titled “India Has Ridden Out Crisis of Iran War, but a Much Bigger Challenge Is Upon It ” by Kanti Bajpai in Indian Express discusses India’s need for a sharper economic and geopolitical strategy. In this context, the following points are noteworthy:  \n• India faces a 1991-like challenge, but this time the pressure is both economic and geopolitical.  \n• Economically, India is stronger than in 1991, yet growth remains around 6%, below the level needed for major-power ambitions.  \n• The deeper weakness lies in the four Cs— commerce (manufacturing), critical minerals/rare earths, computer chips, and computer software and infrastructure for AI.  \n• Without a mission-mode push in these areas, India may remain import-dependent and lose competitiveness in future technologies.  \n• Geopolitically, the [U.S. is](U.S. is) becoming more transactional, reducing India’s earlier expectation of a strategic backstop against China.  \n• Alongside this, China’s economic scale and Pakistan’s renewed confidence are creating a tougher regional environment for India.  \n• Therefore, India needs a sharper grand strategy built on domestic capability, economic reform and careful balancing of both the U.S. and China.  \nAn article titled “A Growth Story That Needs Women at Work” by Santosh Mehrotra and Jajati Keshari Parida in The Hindu highlights  \nwomen’s employment as central to India’s Viksit Bharat goal. In this context, the following points are noteworthy:  \n• India’s growth story will remain incomplete without raising women’s work participation rate.  \n• This is crucial because a 10 percentage-point rise in female WPR could add nearly 2 percentage points to GDP growth.  \n• Higher women’s employment can then expand labour supply,  \nhousehold income, consumption, savings and long-term human capital.  \n• However, India’s female WPR remains below 30%, despite major gains in women’s education.  \n• Even the post-2020 rise in women’s work needs caution, as much of it is distress-driven and linked to unpaid family labour or subsistence agriculture.  \n• At the same time, India’s growth has remained capital-intensive, creating too few jobs in sectors like textiles, garments and food processing.  \n• In this context, Tamil Nadu offers a useful model, employing  \nover 40% of India’s women factory workers through labourintensive industry, literacy, mobility, hostels and transport support.  \nGOOD PHRASES FOR EXAM  \n• Adaptive governance: It refers to a flexible decision-making approach where governments continuously adjust policies based on changing risks, evidence, local feedback and groun","cbCaifdR0a696tjK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifdR0a696tjK","pdf",201260,"English","# Key Headlines\n## Key Perspectives for Exam\n## Good Phrases for Exam\n## Suggested Articles for Exam","[{\"question\":\"What was the main outcome of the U.S. action on forced-labour imports and how did India respond on tariffs?\",\"answer\":\"The U.S. announced permanent tariffs on imports from 60 trading partners due to forced-labour concerns and banned related goods.
