The India China standoff has managed to grab all the headlines in recent weeks. The India China standoff has also led to a nationwide call to ban Chinese imports. The banning of 59 Chinese applications by the Indian government is also seen as a response to the India China standoff. Ever since the India China standoff began, several Indian entrepreneurs, businessmen and corporations have supported the decision to ban Chinese goods and imports.
Recently, Anand Mahindra also gave a befitting reply to the editor of the Global Times when Chinese apps banned in India was enforced. Anand Mahindra replied to the tweet by the editor which referenced to the Chinese apps banned in India, saying that the comment will work as a rallying cry for India. The tweet was also liked by Delhi Capitals owner and the Managing Director of JSW Cement, Parth Jindal.

I hope Indian traders stop imports and exports to the countries which are not India’s friends. We all Indians have a duty to impact our non friendly countries economically, while our soldiers do their duty on the borders. @nsitharamanoffc @PMOIndia
