Pakistan Triumphs in Global Basmati Rice Dispute Against India

Pakistan has secured a major victory in the global Basmati rice battle, with New Zealand and Australia officially recognizing it as a Pakistani product.

The European Union is also expected to rule in Pakistan’s favor. Historical evidence confirms Basmati’s origins in Pakistan’s Hafizabad district.

Despite India’s efforts to claim ownership, traders and experts have proven Pakistan’s right. With exports reaching $4 billion, Pakistan remains a key player in the $27 billion global Basmati market.

Experts emphasize that geographical rights protect Pakistan’s claim under international law.
