Boycott China letters to Tata, Ambani

The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT), the country’s largest traders’ association, has written to top 50 industrialists, including Mukesh Ambani, Ratan Tata, Adi Godrej, Azim Premji, Kumar Mangalam Birla and Anand Mahindra, to support its ‘Boycott China’ campaign and stop using imported Chinese parts in their businesses.

The traders’ body, which is said to be close to the ruling BJP, has sent out the appeal after roping in chief ministers, politicians, Bollywood celebrities and cricket players to boycott Chinese brands.

CAIT has also urged Infosys co-founder N.R. Narayana Murthy, Vikram Kirloskar, Shiv Nadar, Pallonji Mistry, Uday Kotak, Nusli Wadia, Shashi Ruia, Madhukar Parekh and Harsh Mariwala among other prominent industrialists, to lend their support to its “Bhartiya Samaan-Humaara Abhimaan” campaign.
