Abstract

This paper undertakes an evaluation of the Labour and Environment chapters of the TPP Agreement, with a view to determining India’s stand if the same or similar provisions are proposed in multilateral, plurilateral or bilateral agreements in future. Analysis in the paper shows that if TPP like provisions are incorporated in multilateral trade agreements, for India there would be only a small area of vulnerability to counter measures arising from our labour laws and none due to the laws on the environment.
