Came across this article today which talks about boycotting Chinese products completely is not possible for India. And also how it will be more harmful than expected. Goes on to show how we are all mislead by social media without actually knowing the facts.

There is trade between India and China as well as India and Pakistan. Even Sardar Patel statue is being made in China. In these circumstances, boycotting Pakistani actors and Chinese Goods appear childish and senseless. This is evident from the way the union Home Minister Rajnath Singh as well as Maharashtra govt. have assured film producers full protection against MNS and similar miscreants.
Call of boycott of China Goods is for future. what happen is past is meaning less. It is right that 100% boycott is not possible but it is certain that this call of boycott people will avoid China products.

Boycotting Chinese products will not happen immediately. When India successfully implements ' Make in India " programme, and makes better and cheap quality products better than China. Though it takes time, it is worth waiting.

Yes India can do it. boycott is first step in this direction.

Definitely India can do. This is a Government that acts.This Government has that confidence to take up any welfare scheme and make it successful . Many number of Foreign Countries coming forward to invest in India. With this, Indian Government will shoot ahead with its Schemes like, Make in India, Digitization, Swach Bharat etc.
Where there is a will and commitment there is a way, and as per news reports things,are happening and pretty fast too with market for Chinese products,akready showing a drop ..

I have corrected the link above, however there are far too many suppositions in the article almost as if Indians have no life without importing from China

Thanks for the link! It is indeed an interesting article and eye opener of sorts. It seems like we will have to give up almost everything if we wish to stop giving money to China. But it also speaks a lot about the extent of damage that has been caused to manufacturing units all across the world. Another reason why we should uphold Modi's Make in India and encourage our children to become entrepreneurs rather than just take up a job somewhere. Real wealth will only be created and distributed equally in the country only if everything is produced within the country.
I am little amazed and its little annoying, when we think & too believe that our Country - India is moving towards becoming the Super Power in future and it will be one day, but we don't have our technology, our Products - indigenous produced which are popular enough in the world. I means there are not enough Brand which are indigenous.
If we want to become Super Power, we have to make Products and brand it in the World. We have to start making products which are used daily in our life, so that we don't import from outside. It requires huge Manufacturing to create jobs as well.
It is not the only product i see, but i do see that PATANJALI has moved towards that objective. The recent development or induction in their product line is "DESI JEANS". Many products in different categories will follow. I do believe that in near future, they will be eyeing IPO as well.
I don't want to divert from the topic, but question i want to raise that we have very few companies who are Big enough in our Country. Thats why Foreign companies have showered their products on Indian consumers.
As of now Boycotting Chinese goods looks to be impossible. But now Modi Government is directing all its efforts to make India self sufficient through its Make in India program. Boycotting Chinese goods may take time. But over a period, In India itself quality goods better than Chinese Goods may be available. I am hopeful about it.

Usha mam, I have always believe that to become big in life, you have to Dream big. Because if we don't dream big, we won't grow. We should have to dream big and start executing plans for those Big Dreams. This is what our Government - Modi Government is doing.
Yes, I too believe that we don't have very basic facilities in many of our Villages, towns and cities. Infrastructure play a crucial role in growth of any country. Every New Government brings new ideas and have their plans so that our country grows at better pace. They are doing their work.
But i do think that Big Business man of our country should try to develop indigenous products & boost manufacturing so that we can use our products.
There is so much of talent, so much of knowledge and ability in Indians that we will become No.1 some day.
I am 26 now, I really Believe that before i die, I will see my Country on the top in everything.Yes, it will take time. India will become Super Power one Day.
The sad part is that in China not even a bycycle was manufactered in 1948, while India had aircraft factory, car manufacturing unit , steel plant etc. But now India is 3 decades behind China with latest launch of space ship and astronauts by China. Who is responsible? On the other hand we have a insurrection on, not only in Kashmr but also in NE states and Central India . India a great world power? No way yet, till we rid ourself of caste bogey as well. With 50% reservation on caste meritocracy, so essential for great power development is absent.
Modi's 'Make in India' scheme will definitely work to stop the demand for Chinese products. Some experts are of the opinion , the scheme Make in India is impractical. Because, the Indian establishment wants foreign Companies to invest in India. I'm of the opinion, Indian buyers should resist the love towards Chinese Goods. It is a fact that Chinese goods are well known for quality products. They are less expensive too.
Taking in to consideration all the aspects, over a period India will definitely succeed in Reducing the demand for Chinese goods in India.
"Aside from a financial market that allocates resources more efficiently, India seems to have in place the institutions - democracy, a functioning judiciary, property rights and so on - conducive to economic development. Huang and Khanna, from MIT and Harvard, argue: "Democracy, a tradition of entrepreneurship, and a decent legal system have given India the underpinnings necessary for free enterprise to flourish."
China liberalized its economy 14 years before India. Foreigners come to China to manufacture products cheaply and it is not Chinese investment unlike in India which has a thriving private sector investing and manufacturing. India is a democracy and China is a dictatorially run country.
Let us be patient and not brood.
If you keep isolating everyone, in the end you will be the most isolated. What is wrong if Priyanka acts in a Chinese movie? She is an artiste and will expand her work arena. Just as some of the minority bashers have no qualms about working , earning and singing praises of Muslim countries at least she does not carry the burden of pseudo patriotism on her sleeves.
