Bengaluru, Aug 8: Amid the escalating tension on India-China border over the Doklam issue, the state BJP utilised its executive committee meeting on Sunday as a platform to give a call for boycott of Chinese goods and to go “swadeshi”.
Briefing reporters on the deliberations of the meeting in Bengaluru, BJP state general secretary and Lok Sabha member Shobha Karandlaje said the party was of the firm opinion that the security and interest of the nation cannot be compromised.
“Our party cadre will create awareness among the people about the problems caused by China at the border and the need to boycott Chinese goods. They will also persuade traders not to sell made-in-China goods,” she said.
Shobha said that even pooja items such as kumkum and camphor are being imported from China. “The economy of China is largely dependent on Indian markets. The BJP state executive meeting felt that we should boycott their products to teach the neighbouring country a lesson,” she said.
Shobha said the state executive meeting also felt that India should not hesitate to engage in a confrontation with China if the country’s security is threatened.
Mangaluru, Jan 20: A teenage girl drowned after a boat in which she was traveling in capsized in the river Netravati at Uliya Hoige, Ullal, police said on Monday.
