All of you guys, Whats your problem with patanjali products. Are you congress supporter?
Or do you hate indian entrepreneurs?
I like quality products at lesser price. Patanjali satisfies both those requirements. Aren't these things enough for the success of this brand?
And in the last, its made in india. Thats again +1 for me.
Take you prpoganda somewhere else. Dont spread rumours.
1. No quality control. Poor quality materials and non-compliance with regulations. Adulterated products.
2. Many products made in factories without appropriate operating licenses and/or under non-compliant conditions.
3. Products sold without any quality and standards certification or fake certification logos used.
4. Bogus manufacturing and expiry dates. Even in Jan/Feb 2016, people found Patanjali products with mfg date as Aug or Oct 2016 etc. and its not a one off incident either to be thought of as an error. So, only god knows when the product that you thought was manufactured in Aug 2016 was actually manufactured. It may be Aug 2015 or even older.
5. False advertising/marketing.
6. Dubious investment sources. Most of their investments are black money of Congress, BJP and several other politicians.
Normally, it would be a big scandal if some non Indian company indulges in these kind of practices. Just look at the Maggi debacle. Just because one lab gave out whats seemingly erroneous or deliberately doctored results (which were disproved by results of other labs in India as well as outside), it turned into such a big scandal.
Patanjali noodles were found to be manufactured in plants that didn't have the license to manufacture make them and didn't follow food safety regulations on multiple fronts. But what happened? After the initial results were out, the whole thing was suppressed.
Because of the fact that its a Indian company and because of the political clout they have from various parties, they have been able to suppress investigations or at least keep mainstream media at bay.
As it stands today, any product that's made by outside companies are much safer simply for the reason that they have to go though checks which the local brands like Patanjali are bypassing.
Its laughable that there are people naive enough to think that Patanjali is linked to one political party. Just shows how stupid people are our country and explains how politicians manage to play them so easily. When it comes to corruption, there are no boundaries.
If patriotism means shamelessly supporting companies selling sub standard products without any respect for regulations in the country and playing with the people, then patriotism is an absurd sentiment. It is no different than the blind religious fanaticism that drives terrorists to their unreasonable and extremist behavior.
If you have any respect for the country, have the integrity to be fair in calling out wrong doing when you see it be it from a local brand or foreign brand rather than blindly supporting Indian brands just for the heck of it.
I too support and buy Indian brands, but only when they are worth it. I don't support a brand just because its local. For instance, Dabur is an Indian brand, but just look at their honey, it literally reeks of antibiotics and I never recommend it to anyone. I buy Girijan honey which is also a very local brand and of considerably better quality
