The WTO sets multilateral trade rules, resolving disputes and reducing barriers. India, a founding member, balances developing-country interests with progressive liberalization. Key issues revolve around agricultural subsidies, intellectual property rights, and e-commerce rules. Understanding the Doha Development Agenda and India’s stance on public stockholding for food security is crucial for mains.
