It is a great concern to all of us that, in the guise of supporting increased trade, government of India is opening way for China to dump poorly made products in Indian markets. Many of these products are made with dangerous chemicals which hurt the health of the people who use them, and China does not always require reporting the presence of these hazardous chemicals in their products on the product labels. In many other countries such as USA, import of cheap and hazardous products have decimated the local economy and local manufacturers will take years to recover. If those economies can not withstand the onslaught of cheap and hazardous chinese products, how can we expect Indian market, with its lax government support, to survive?

Indian environment, culture and economic well being are at stake here.

You can not expect someone in government to take care of these problems and be alert to control these hazardous conditions. The problem is simply too big and well hidden. A totalitarian government like China can easily control information flow and consumers will be ignorant to these dangerous ingredients in the products made in China. The answer lies with each of the consumers. During the independence struggle, a key strategy that worked was the boycott of foreign goods. By avoiding buying goods from Britain, Indian public eliminated the incentives and a captive market for Britain in India and made it expensive for Britain to operate. Today, to preserve local culture and local jobs, Indian consumers can take charge. By avoiding products Made in China, and support products made locally, Indian public can reassert and preserve their independence and avoid indirectly supporting a distant totalitarian government.
