NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Trade Minister Anand Sharma launched a broadside on Tuesday against the United States, accusing Washington of trade protectionism and making it hard for Indian nationals to obtain U.S. visas.
Sharma, speaking at a news briefing, also said that India's patent law was compliant with the rules of the World Trade Organisation. India would not agree to tougher rules on protecting intellectual property, he added.
