ED putting pressure on my former PA to name me in municipal jobs case: Bengal minister Sujit Bose
Saturday, 28 October 2023 West Bengal Fire Services Minister Sujit Bose has accused the Enforcement Directorate (ED) of pressurizing his former personal assistant, Nitai Dutta, to implicate him in a job scam. Dutta, who is currently the vice-chairman of South Dum Dum municipality, has been questioned by the ED regarding the case. Bose claims that the ED officials are trying to coerce Dutta into naming him in exchange for being relieved of the case. Bose believes that these actions by the ED are an attempt to demoralize his party workers.

Biden will call on U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai to triple tariffs on Chinese
steel and aluminum, NPR reports. .
Those tariffs are presently at about 7.5%.
While these Chinese imports "account for less than 1% of U.S. demand," the country's steel prices are 40% cheaper than America's, NPR reports. .
The White House is concerned that
this could prompt a surge of exports. .
China's policy-driven overcapacity poses
a serious risk to the future of the
American steel and aluminum industry, Lael Brainard, Biden's top economic adviser, via NPR.
The president understands
we must invest in American
manufacturing, but we also have
to protect those investments and
those workers from unfair exports. , Lael Brainard, Biden's top economic adviser, via NPR.
The Biden administration also sent officials to Mexico to discuss preventing Chinese steel from entering the U.S. via its southern neighbor. .
I want to emphasize our desire to
cooperate and partner with Mexico
on addressing imports coming in
to the North American market as
a way of circumventing tariffs, Senior administration official, via NPR.
I'm not going to get ahead
of the diplomatic conversations
that have happened today and
that will be happening in the
days and weeks to come. , Senior administration official, via NPR.
But I think we're hoping to come to
a mutually acceptable solution with
Mexico, because this is a problem that
affects both of our economies, Senior administration official, via NPR.
