New Delhi, July 26

India has the highest trade deficit with China in goods but the gap expanded at a lower pace during 2014-15 to 2023-24 as compared to the previous 10 years, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said on Friday.

In a written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha, the minister said the trade deficit has increased by compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42.85 per cent during 2004-05 to 2013-14, while the same has come down to 6.45 per cent during 2014-15 to 2023-24 which clearly indicates the success of the government in containing rate of growth of excessive import growth from China during the past ten years.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
