Bhubaneswar, India: The world’s largest economy is once again grappling with a severe budget crisis, as political deadlock in Washington raises fears of a potential government shutdown. Negotiations between the administration and Congress have stalled over spending priorities, leaving thousands of federal workers anxious about delayed paychecks and uncertain job schedules.
If a deal is not reached soon, several key government departments could face temporary closures, disrupting essential services ranging from national parks to federal law enforcement operations.
Economic experts warn that repeated shutdown threats erode global confidence in the U.S. government’s fiscal stability, even as the country continues to battle inflationary pressures and rising public debt.
The Trump administration, which returned to office amid promises of restoring economic order, now faces mounting criticism for failing to broker a bipartisan budget deal. Political observers note that the standoff could have major consequences for the U.S. economy, financial markets, and global investor sentiment.
For now, the world watches as the United States — long considered the model of financial strength — struggles to keep its government running amid deep political divides.
