Make in India should be termed farce, says LoP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury

On Friday, Lok Sabha Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury slammed the central government, saying “Made in India” should be called a “farce” as the trade deficit between India and China reflects India’s Continue to import more goods from neighboring countries.

He noted that the India-China trade deficit stands at $69 million.

“Make in India should be called a farce. The trade deficit between India and China is $69 million, which means we are importing more from China than exporting. If Make in India is successful, why should we rely on China and import on such a large scale material from China?” said Chowdhury.

Earlier on Friday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took aim at the central government on unemployment, saying “Made in India” was becoming “Buy from China”.
