lead paint

By Vipin Agnihotri

In my opinion, as Indians scale newer heights of consumption, retail shelves are becoming showcases of the competitiveness (or, in few situations, the lack of it) of Indian manufacturing. It has come into the notice of The India Street that bigger sections of these shelves are getting filled by products from China, particularly in categories such as toys, home decor items, luggage, consumer electronics, appliances, and stationery. Notwithstanding the lead paint scare in the US from Chinese made goods, India needs to take the initiative and start promoting Indian manufacturing.
