The other day I went shopping at Big Bazzar looking for an electric iron. Accordingly I went to the floor meant for home appliances and picked up one which was kept for display. On examination I found that the iron had the following words engraved on it.. "Made in PRC". I told my brother who had accompanied me, that it probably meant "Made in People's Republic of China". At that very instant the stall attendant who was standing nearby accosted us and tried to convince us that the iron picked up by me wasn’t from China but was actually a “Made in India product..!!â€
I did not argue with the attendant about the country of origin of the electric iron but at the same time, I somehow couldn’t prevent a smile escape my lips.
I still vividly remember that during my school days (in the late eighties and early nineties) anything made in a foreign country was a much sought after product. "Made in India" products were probably meant for people who couldn’t afford the exotic stuff. And look at the situation now.. is that an example of Brand India Shining..
