Wangchuk's calls for boycotting Chinese products gains momentum, celebrities lend support

New Delhi, May 31(UNI) Well known educationist and innovator Sonam Wangchuk's video message on Sunday where he called upon Indian citizens to boycott Chinese products is starting to make an impact as people from various fields including celebrities have come forward and lent support to it.
In a video message released the Magsaysay award winner emphasised that while the soldiers would use their bullets against the Chinese at the borders the Indian citizens must use their wallets to counter the Chinese. "If 130 crore Indian citizens and 3 crore non resident Indians come together to boycott 'made in China' goods, the rest of the world too is likely to join us as the entire world is angry with China today."
Wangchuk said that boycotting Chinese products could be a boon for Indian products as boycotting Chinese products could give the space to Indian products to flourish, creating employment in the process and help in achieving the Prime Minister's stated goal of self reliance.
