Protectionism is the economic policy of restricting imports from other countries through methods such as tariffs on imported goods, import quotas, and a variety of other government regulations. Protectionist policies help immune the producers, businesses, and workers of the import-competing sector in the country from foreign competitors.
Impact on India

Negative
- It might lead to downslide of steel and aluminium industry owing to influx of steel and aluminium due to excess production.
- Higher tariffs would have major implications on India’s Banking system which is already crippled by Bad loans and recent scams.
