Basu, Soma (2013) India compromises on WTO deal: Under pressure from the US, it accepts conditions not part of G-33 proposal. Down To Earth, Vol.22 (15). p. 12. ISSN 0971-8079

The deal, which was struck with the approval of 159 ministers, facilitates trade and allows developing nations to stock grains for food security purposes. This is the first significant global trade reform in more than two decades and comes at a time when WTO seems to be losing relevance after a series of failures to conclude trade negotiations. The Bali accord would help the UPA government roll out its flagship National Food Security Act, passed in September 2013, which would otherwise have been severely constrained by current WTO rules that impose stiff conditions on agriculture subsidies.
