Ban Chinese food, ban Chinese products, delete Chinese apps — in the wake of the death of 20 soldiers at the LAC in Galwan Valley, the anti-China sentiment is viral once again.

Protests by traders bodies and common citizens have been raging with a call to boycott Chinese products to show solidarity with the army. Some citizens have gone over the top to teach China a lesson by breaking their Made in China appliances like TV sets, some are burning Chinese President Xi Jinping's effigies, while some others are asking for a ban on import and trading of Chinese products.
