Ramdas Athwale whose “Go Corona Go” video went viral on Social media, has asked people to stop eating Chinese food as BJP members protests against against the neighbouring country after a violent face-off in Ladakh led to casualties.
The Minister for Social Justice Ramdas Athawale said one of the actions that citizens can take to hurt China, apart from boycotting Made-in-China products, is to stop eating their food.
“My suggestion is that restaurants and hotels that sell Chinese food should be shut down. I also request those who eat Chinese food to stop eating them, boycott them,” Mr Athawale told news agency ANI.
Indian and Chinese soldiers were involved in a violent face-off in eastern Ladakh’s Galwan valley on Monday night. Military commanders of both sides are holding talks at the incident site today to defuse tension.
The 60-year-old Republican Party of India leader, who lives in suburban Bandra in Mumbai, was seen in a video chanting “go corona, go corona” in February.
