Amazon and Flipkart will tell which country the product is made in

For the past few days, due to the tension between India and China, we are getting to hear something new every day. Emotions like ‘Made in India’ and ‘Boycott China’ are also gaining momentum in India. So now a new news has surfaced where it is learned that e-commerce giants in India such as Flipkart owned by Amazon India and Wallmart are asking retailers on their platforms to list their country of origin on products. Sources familiar with the news said that a video conferencing meeting of online retailers took place to discuss this, which was hosted by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) of the Federal Ministry of Commerce.

The move comes after China pulled out Indian-made products and clashed between the two neighbors at India’s disputed Himalayan border site.
