Patanjali asks to boycott ‘Made in China’ products after it blocks UNSC from proscribing Masood Azhar

New Delhi [India], Mar 14 (ANI): A day after China once again blocked a proposal in the UN Security Council to enlist Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad chief Masood Azhar as an international terrorist, spokesperson of Patanjali Ayurved Limited, SK Tijarawala urged people to refrain themselves from using ‘Made in China’ products.
Praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Tijarawala wrote a poem in Hindi on Twitter in which he urged people to stop using Chinese products as he said that the country supports Pakistan and terrorism.
On Wednesday, China had once again blocked a proposal in the UN Security Council to enlist Masood Azhar as an international terrorist despite his outfit carrying out the ghastly Pulwama terror attack.
This was the fourth time when China used the technical hold to block the proposal, which is being pushed by other permanent members of the UNSC, particularly the US, Britain and France.
India expressed disappointment over the development but vowed to continue to pursue "all available avenues to ensure that terrorist leaders who are involved in heinous attacks on our citizens" are brought to justice.
"The ISIL (Da’esh) and Al-Qaida Sanctions Committee (1267 Sanctions Committee), upon completion of the no-objection period on 13 March 2019, was not able to come to a decision on the proposal for listing Mohammed Masood Azhar Alvi under the UN Sanctions regime, on account of a member placing the proposal on hold," said a statement issued by the External Affairs Ministry.
The statement did not identify the "member" of the UNSC which put the proposal on hold but sources said it was China. (ANI)
