"There have been US business concerns but very largely these are concerns which arise out of the slowdown of the Indian economy," Singh said. "When Indian economy was growing at the rate of eight to nine per cent, I think everybody was quite happy. Even when there were defects in our policies, they were overlooked, and when the economy slows down, people try to find faults and excuses," he said. |

India can expect some pruning of the massive trade deficit it has run up with China as the world's largest exporter is looking to boost its imports, in part to help stimulate economies around the world.
