‘Stop doing business of Chinese products in a month or we will come and lock your shops’

Ahmedabad: A group of around 50 to 100 persons under the banner of ‘Karni Sena’ today gathered outside the market in Geeta Mandir area of city and distributed leaflates among the traders, requesting them to stop doing business of Chinese brand products in a month. Karni Sena chief Shekhawat told media persons that, shopkeepers had been asked to sell off all Chinese products in next one month period and completely stop doing business of Chinese products thereafter. He said, Karni Sena will visit the market again after a month and lock down the shops that are found doing business of Chinese goods.

Karni Sena group had staged similar protest outside the ‘Mobile Market’ in Mangalmurti complex on Relief Road area of city last week and given similar ‘ultimatum’. Several shops in Mangalmurti complex have removed or covered the banners of Chinese brands such as Oppo and Vivo over their shops. Some others have started mentioning ‘Made in India’ under the Chinese brand product’s banner in order to make a point that though the brand and company is Chinese, its manufacturing plant is in India.
