Madhya Pradesh Launches Swadeshi Drive After Trump's Tariffs
Madhya Pradesh is starting a 'Swadeshi Movement' because the US put a tax on some Indian products.
This tax, called a tariff, makes things from India more expensive in the US.
To deal with this, the state wants people to buy things made in India.
This affects items like clothes and steel.
The government is also looking at selling Indian products to other countries instead of the US.
Madhya Pradesh launched a Swadeshi Movement in response to US tariffs.
The movement aims to promote the use of Indian products.
US President Donald Trump imposed a 50% tariff on Indian goods.
The tariff impacts sectors like textiles, steel, and diamond merchants.
Efforts are underway to redirect exports to countries other than the US.
