Far-right activist Laura Loomer<\/strong> has claimed that US President Donald Trump is considering blocking American companies from outsourcing IT and customer support work to Indian firms<\/strong>. In a post on X, Loomer suggested that the move would end reliance on Indian call centres, adding: \u201cYou don\u2019t need to press 2 for English anymore.

\"Trump<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tariff Push on Outsourcing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Her remarks follow calls from conservative activist Jack Posobiec<\/strong>, who proposed<\/a> tariffs on all \u201cforeign remote workers\u201d and outsourcing. He argued that countries should pay for the privilege of providing services to US companies, similar to tariffs on imported goods. White House trade adviser Peter Navarro<\/strong> amplified Posobiec\u2019s post, writing: \u201cIt\u2019s tariff time. Outsourcing to countries like India contributes to wage and employment suppression for American workers.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact on India\u2019s IT Sector<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If implemented, such measures could hit India\u2019s $250+ billion IT industry<\/strong>, which is heavily dependent on contracts from US corporations for software development, support, and backend services. Analysts warn this could lead to job losses in India<\/strong> while driving up operational costs for US businesses<\/strong> that rely on Indian IT outsourcing for efficiency and cost savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

India\u2019s IT giants such as TCS, Infosys, Wipro, and HCLTech<\/strong> earn a large portion of their revenues from the US market, meaning even partial restrictions could significantly affect their margins and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diplomatic Balancing Act<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The outsourcing debate comes against the backdrop of Trump\u2019s broader tariff actions, which have already imposed steep duties\u2014up to 50%\u2014on imports from India and Brazil<\/strong>. Yet, both sides continue to highlight the strength of the bilateral partnership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prime Minister Narendra Modi<\/strong>, reacting to Trump\u2019s comments on US-India ties, wrote on X: \u201cDeeply appreciate and fully reciprocate President Trump\u2019s sentiments and positive assessment of our ties. India and the US have a very positive and forward-looking Comprehensive and Global Strategic Partnership.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump, while voicing concerns about India\u2019s oil imports from Russia, stressed his friendship with Modi, calling him a \u201cgreat prime minister,\u201d and downplayed tensions as occasional disagreements between allies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
