IMC Business Leader Ved Prakash Ojha says, “Promoting indigenous products is also a concrete expression of patriotism”!

Ved Prakash Ojha, a prominent leader of IMC Business, one of India’s leading direct selling companies, has called for the promotion of indigenous products in the country. In an interview, Ojha said that promoting indigenous products is not only crucial for economic progress but is also a concrete expression of patriotism.

Ojha argued that for India to achieve economic growth, it is essential that all the goods and services consumed in the country are produced domestically. By doing so, employment opportunities will be created, ensuring a regular income for the citizens, and an increase in tax revenue for the government. This, in turn, will lead to economic self-reliance, inclusive development, and an improved standard of living for all.

However, Ojha went on to assert that labeling an item or brand as “Swadeshi” (indigenous) solely based on the “Made in India” tag is inadequate. He pointed out that many foreign brands bring their accessories from abroad and only assemble them in India. To truly be considered Swadeshi, a product must be completely indigenous and made in India.

Furthermore, Ojha emphasized that Swadeshi should not be limited to the purchase of goods and services alone. It should be reflected in various aspects of life, including language, clothing, food, medicine, lifestyle, family rituals, and ethics. Ojha argued that reliance on imported goods leads to unemployment in the country and negatively impacts domestic enterprises. Additionally, purchasing goods and services from foreign companies operating in India results in the transfer of profits outside of the country and undermines productive industries, trade, and commerce.

Ojha’s message resonates with the sentiment shared by many Indians who believe in supporting domestic industries and the self-reliance of the nation’s economy. It serves as a call to action for citizens to prioritize Swadeshi products and contribute to the overall prosperity of India.

In a statement, IMC Business CEO said, “We are proud to support Ved Prakash Ojha’s call for the promotion of indigenous products. At IMC Business, we believe that it is our duty to support the growth of the Indian economy and to create opportunities for our fellow citizens. We will continue to work with our partners to promote Swadeshi products and to make India a self-reliant nation.”
