An Indian Manufacturer Explains How Govts Made Chinese Imports Inevitable.


The death of 20 Indian soldiers in a face-off with the People’s Liberation Army has sparked a call to ban Chinese imports. But Rajiv Nath, chairman of AiMED (Association of Indian Medical Device Industry), an umbrella association for manufacturers of medical equipment in India, explains why these boycott calls are likely to go nowhere.


Data shared by AiMED indicates that over 75% of medical items such as clinical thermometers, pregnancy test kits, medical apparel, clothing and accessories and weighing machines sold in India are imported from China. Nath also pointed out at successive governments in India have always given priority to how low the price of a product is while making purchases and approving tenders, making it nearly impossible for Indian manufacturers to compete with Chinese products.


Gestures like deleting Chinese apps from the phone can only be symbolic and Nath’s industry, especially crucial during the ongoing pandemic, is an example of how difficult it is to actually boycott Chinese goods in view of the escalation at the border.
