India ‘very optimistic’ of sealing trade deal with Oman during PM Modi’s Gulf visit

Indian officials said the proposed economic partnership agreement with Oman has the potential to substantially elevate bilateral commerce and investment, adding that both sides have made significant progress in negotiations. The government also noted ongoing cooperation in defence, including forthcoming supplies of Jaguar aircraft spares, even as Modi’s wider three-nation tour is expected to deepen ties in sectors ranging from connectivity and infrastructure to maritime security.
