NEW DELHI: Tariff does not protect any country and India needs to cut tariffs for its own good, irrespective of who tells India to do so, Niti Aayog CEO BVR Subrahmanyam said at an event on Friday.
Subrahmanyam said that being open to the world has to be among the top five priorities of India if it wants to become a developed country.
