World Economic Forum, Davos – Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma dropped a bombshell at WEF, predicting the India-EU trade pact will be transformative for businesses on both sides. In candid remarks, he underscored the rock-solid relations and intensifying partnerships between India and Europe.
Access to international markets is crucial for Indian companies, Sarma stressed, and the FTA will open those doors wide. ‘EU leaders see India as a trusted ally and top investment destination,’ he noted, citing official declarations amid India’s policy stability and high-octane growth.
Set against US tariff jitters and global instability, the January 27 India-EU Summit is poised to deliver stability. Sarma flagged the IMF’s 7.3% growth estimate for FY25-26, positioning India for third-largest GDP glory soon.
India’s democratic framework guarantees policy endurance, allowing agile responses to challenges. With a powerhouse domestic market, setbacks are mere speed bumps. Sarma proudly announced Assam’s landmark Davos presence, where delegates are captivating audiences and locking in investment promises.
In parallel discussions, Sarma revealed Assam’s blueprint for preparing youth via AI-centric skilling, capitalizing on demographic advantages. The state is revamping its education ecosystem for futuristic tech demands, as shared in a key WEF forum.
This pact heralds India’s economic dominance, with visionary leaders like Sarma amplifying regional voices globally.
