During a significant two-day visit to India, UK PM Keir Starmer emphasized the importance of enhancing trade ties between the UK and India. While leading the largest trade mission from the UK to India, Starmer expressed his commitment to quick implementation of a trade deal but ruled out any changes to visa regulations for Indian workers, stating outright that more visas for highly skilled Indians are not part of the plan. Despite facing criticism over the movement of talent, he urged business leaders to seize the unparalleled opportunities presented by the India-UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA). The visit included meetings with Indian PM Narendra Modi, discussions on technological partnerships, and a focus on promoting British products like Scotch whisky in India.
