The World Trade Organization (WTO) was formed on January 1, 1995 to oversee and liberalize international trade. It replaced the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). The WTO aims to promote world trade and ensure developing countries benefit from trade expansion. India has been a member of GATT since 1948 and joined the WTO at its inception. While the WTO has increased trade opportunities, India and other developing nations have faced challenges in areas like agriculture, patents, and movement of people. India has made progress in reducing trade barriers but developing countries continue advocating for more flexibility in some WTO rules and commitments.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

5. India and WTO
India one of members of General Agreement on
Tariffs and Trade (GATT) since 1948.
After Marrakesh Agreement, India joined WTO since inception in 1995.
Aim to participate in WTO rule based system with greater
stability, transparency and predictability in governance of international
trade.
Developing countries like India availed of greater trade opportunities and
also challenged certain policies of developed countries (DCs)
Developmental issues increasingly focused along with trade issues
S&D treatment for developing and LDCs incorporated
6. Areas of concern
In spite of special provisions for developing countries, certain imbalances and inequities
experienced.
A number of DCs not fulfilled some obligations for trade liberalization while developing
countries asked to reduce import duties and provide greater market access.
India has reduced tariffs to bring them to bound levels. Even lower for a large number of
commodities as part of the reforms process. Now, India committed to reduce tariffs to
bring in line with South East Asian countries by 2007. We are not in a position to reduce
tariffs substantially to the extent suggested by developed countries since
Customs duties important source of revenue for developing countries like India.
The industrial sector faces several constraints-some protection warranted for specific
industries
Non-agricultural tariffs gradually reduced but agricultural tariffs require greater caution
due to following reasons.
7. India and other developing countries have argued that agriculture is way of life
and employs large proportion of workforce while contributing significantly to GDP.
Exposure to volatile international market would affect not only domestic prices
but also incomes of poor.
Technical barriers to trade and stringent restrictions on grounds of SPS
regulations to be relaxed to prevent protectionist measures by DCs on this plea.
Grant of patents on non-original innovations, particularly linked to traditional
medicines issue of concern.
Mechanism proposed for disclosure of source of origin of biological material used
along with consent of country of origin. Dissemination of knowledge and also
patent rights for seed diversity important for developing countries.
Under agreement on Trade in Services, developing countries have asked for
relaxing restrictions on movement of natural persons.
8. Some DCs not fully implemented the required reduction of domestic support to
farmers, export subsidies and tariffs.
WTO permits non- distortionary subsidies. Experience shows these can be trade
distorting and DCs have steadily increased such subsidies leading to excessive
global production.
Disadvantage to developing countries since such subsidies unaffordable. Get less
competitive in world market.
Technical barriers to trade and stringent restrictions on grounds of SPS
regulations to be relaxed to prevent protectionist measures by DCs on this plea.
Grant of patents on non-original innovations, particularly linked to traditional
medicines issue of concern.
Mechanism proposed for disclosure of source of origin of biological material
used along with consent of country of origin. Dissemination of knowledge and
also patent rights for seed diversity important for developing countries.
9. Under agreement on Trade in Services, developing countries have asked for
relaxing restrictions on movement of natural persons.
India has advantage in movement of highly skilled and experienced
professionals.
Developing countries had wanted unbundling of Singapore issues comprising
MAI, competition policy, trade facilitation and transparency in Government
procurement.
10. Argument in favor of WTO
Increase in Foreign trade
Increase in Agricultural trade
Increase in inflow of foreign investment
Improvement in services
Benefits for clothing and textile industries
Inflow of better technology and better quality products
11. Progress in fulfillment of India’s
commitment to WTO
Reduction in tariff and non tariff barriers
Amendment in patent act
Sui-generis system
Copyright, trademark and industrial designs
