‘Hate-In-India, Make-In-India Can’t Coexist’: Rahul Gandhi To PM Modi Over Exit Of Global Brands From India

Last week, Japanese automobile major Nissan had said that it is going to discontinue its Datsun brand in India.

New Delhi: Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday targeted Prime Minister Narednra Modi over the exit of some global brands from India saying that “hate-in-india and make-in-india can’t coexist.”

Taking to Twitter, the Congress MP talked about unemployment in the country and urged the Prime Minister to focus on the “devastating unemployment crisis.”  

"The ease of driving business out of India. 7 Global Brands. 9 Factories.649 Dealerships. 84,000 Jobs," he said on Twitter.

 

He also shared a graphic along with the tweet, showing the exit of seven global brands from India since 2017 — Chevrolet in 2017, Man Trucks in 2018, Fiat and United Motors in 2019, Harley Davidson in 2020, Ford in 2021, and Datsun in 2022. 

"Modi ji, Hate-in-India and Make-in-India can't coexist! Time to focus on India's devastating unemployment crisis instead," he said. 

Last week, Japanese automobile major Nissan had said that it is going to discontinue its Datsun brand in India, nine years after the company kicked off the marque’s global relaunch in the country, news agency PTI had reported. 

Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, Mallikarjun Kharge had also hit out at the Centre over exit of these global brands, terming it as “sleaze of doing business.” 

Taking to Twitter, Kharge had shared a list of companies that made an exit from the Indian market and wrote, “One after another, these automobile majors have quit India due to 'sleaze of business' & fall in incomes. No one has failed the Indian economy & embarrassed India internationally as BJP".
