Anyone know what's up with India and the US relations lately? Also trump forcing apple out of India
All in a matter of week

US authorities have rejected no fewer than 15 mango shipments from India at various airports, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Atlanta, due to documentation irregularities.The exporters faced the choice of either destroying the fruit in the US or sending it back to India. Given the perishable nature ofmangoes and the substantial costs involved in return shipping, all exporters opted to dispose of the mango shipments locally.
The United States represents India's primary export destination for mangoes, making these incidents particularly significant for the trade relationship.
Considering mangoes are perishable and the substantial expenses linked to destruction or re-exportation, traders anticipate losses of around $500,000.
The mangoes had undergone the required irradiation process in Mumbai on May 8 and 9. However, according to an ET report US officials found inconsistencies in the documentation related to this mandatory treatment, which involves exposing the fruit to controlled radiation doses to eliminate pests and prolong shelf life. The issue stemmed from administrative errors in the pest-control documentation rather than actual pest presence, the report said.
