Boycott of Chinese products may not be feasible: FIEO

NEW DELHI: Boycotting Chinese goods may not be feasible as India is dependent on Chinese imports but should try to reduce its dependence on Chinese products, the chief of the Federation of Indian Export Organisations said on Thursday.

After a border clash with China in which 20 Indian soldiers were killed, there are growing calls in India to shun Chinese products.

India’s customs officials at Chennai, one of India’s biggest ports, have held shipments originating from China for extra checks.
