JAMMU, Apr 30: The Department of Educational Studies, Central University of Jammu organized a compelling panel discussion titled"Economic Consequences of Trump's Tariffs: A Global and Indian Perspective" under the academic platform, Shiksha Shastrarth held at Pt. Malviya Shiksha Bhawan. The event was conducted under the esteemed patronage of Hon'ble Vice Chancellor, Prof. Sanjeev Jain, and brought together academicians, faculty members, scholars and students for a thought-provoking engagement with one of the most debated economic policies of the 21st century.
The event commenced with the lighting of the ceremonial lamp (Deep Prajwalan) and Pushpanjali ceremony, following a formal welcome and contextual introduction to the theme by the Head of the Department, Prof. Asit K. Mantry wherein he warmly welcomed the distinguished panellists and participants. He highlighted the significance of the Shiksha Shastrarth platform as a meaningful space for academic dialogue and critical engagement. Prof. Mantry also focused on the multifaceted impacts of U.S President Donald Trump's tariff policies on global trade dynamics, with particular emphasis on the Indian economy and also emphasized the evolving identity of human beings as 'economic beings' over the classical definition of 'social animals.' The panel discussion was presided over by Prof. J.N. Baliya, a distinguished academic from the Department, who also moderated the discussion with great finesse. Prof. Baliya set the thematic tone for the panel by contextualizing the global shift towards protectionist policies and their ramifications for emerging economies like India. The panel comprised esteemed experts from diverse academic disciplines: Prof. Aswini Nanda, Department of Economics, Prof. Suram Singh, Department of Physics, and Dr. Ranjeet Raman, Department of TTM. Each panellist brought a unique analytical lens to the discussion, integrating perspectives from economics, education, international relations, and science and technology.
Dr. Ranjit Raman delivered the opening remarks, exploring the consequences of tariffs in the Indian context before extending the lens to a global perspective. Dr. Raman discussed the implications for India's economic strategy, culture, agriculture, and key sectors like Banking, and IT, and emphasized that these sectors are performing notably well. The discussion continued with Prof. Suram Singh, Dean Academic Affairs, who emphasized the deep interlinkage of tariffs with Science and Technology. Prof. Suram strongly advocated that tariffs should not be imposed on scientific and research materials, as these are essential for innovation and development. Prof. Aswini Nanda followed, noting that the tariff war would impact the United States more than India, reassuring attendees that India is in safe hands. Prof. Nanda also highlighted the importance of analyzing trade rivals first and emphasized that the impacts of such tariffs are not universal.
Following the panel presentations, an open-floor interaction was held, where research scholars and students raised insightful queries, fostering critical discussion on trade diplomacy, economic nationalism, and global interdependence. The enriching exchange of ideas underscored the relevance of such academic platforms in facilitating meaningful discourse on contemporary global issues. |
