Urgent - Banning of non essential imports

Yesterday late evening finance minister announced that to stem the decline of rupee, the Govt has decided to ban non essential imports.

I strongly urge all members to share their knowledge and ideas about non essential import item categories and let the circle administrator compile and send the same to Finance Minister.

The 1 lakh rupee iphone surely is something we can do without. Let us put it togther fast friends.

@localcircles kindly take this actively.

THE CONSUMERS ALSO SHOULD PLAY THEIR PART IN THIS EFFORT. WE GET LURED BY THE LOW COST OF CHINESE ITEMS ( VERY OFTEN COMING WITHOUT WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE) LOTS OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE IS LOST IN BUYING THE JUNK SENT BY CHINA TO INDIA THROUGH JUNK DEALERS. LOTS OF SCRAP IS ALSO IMPORTED IN NAME OF RAW MATERIAL. IN THE GRAB OF IT, LOT OF MALPRACTICES TAKE PLACE. more

As I understand, under the liberalised policy, India is a free economy and there can not be restrictions on imports and exports, as per General agreement of Trade and Traffic (GATT). more  
We have to 'BE BHARATIYA' and also restrict buy imported goods (not made in India). If possible, buy the products of completely Indian companies.... Drive your o (wn car when essential.... Make efforts by which the consumption of petroleum products (in terms of liters) is reduced.... more
