May 3, 2025 (ANI): Amid heightened tensions bw India and Pakistan, the Indian Govt has taken another strong retaliatory step on May 3. India has imposed an immediate ban on the direct and indirect import of all goods from Pakistan, as per a notification issued by the Ministry of Commerce. The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) said that the restriction has been implemented in the interest of ‘national security and public policy.’ Any exception to this prohibition will require the prior approval of the Government of India. The move adds on to a series of counter measures following terrorist attack in J&K’s Pahalgam in which 26 people were killed.
