'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham': UK opposition leader Keir Starmer on FTA with India

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 21 November 2023
UK Opposition Leader Keir Starmer has compared the UK government's negotiations for a free trade agreement (FTA) with India to the Bollywood movie 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham', meaning sometimes happy, sometimes sad. Starmer expressed the Labour Party's commitment to a strong bilateral relationship with India based on shared values. The FTA talks began in January last year, and while no new timelines have been set, both sides are eager to finalize the agreement before the general elections in both countries in 2024. The Labour Party sees reaching out to the Indian diaspora electorate as crucial.
