Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh took an indirect jibe at US President Donald Trump for his tariff imposition on the country. Singh accused that "some boss" is jealous of India's economic growth. Speaking from Madhya Pradesh, the Indian minister said, “Some 'boss' is jealous, unable to accept India's growth; trying to disrupt the country’s economy.”

The comment came amid the tension between India and the United States over the 50 per cent tariff Trump levied on the fourth-largest economy in the world. It was apparently over India's continuous purchase of oil from Russia. Trump wants India to stop it within 20 days, or the country will have to pay the price in the form of tariffs. The American president termed India a "dead economy."

Amid the chaos around Donald Trump's tariff imposed on India, former Indian diplomat Rakesh Sood said that the American president loves two things the most: tariffs and the Nobel Peace Prize. He hinted that Trump's moibe must be a prize India has to pay for not endorsing him for the peace prize, as done by Benjamin Netanyahu.
