Chandigarh:
The much talked about 'Made in Pakistan'
fair was recently held in Chandigarh. It was the first
ever-exclusive show from Pakistan and was aimed at improving trade
ties and people to people contacts between India and Pakistan.
Organized by the Confederation of Indian
Industry (Northern Region), the five-day expo provided an
opportunity to over 40 companies from across the border to exhibit
their products ranging from
garments,
paintings, shoes, crockery and other decorative items.
The fair saw a packed house with visitors
curious to check out the goodies, and traders from Pakistan also
seemed upbeat about such opportunities being provided by India.
"There are many benefits of trade between
India and Pakistan. Being neighbours, the freight and transport cost
is very low. We import many such items from overseas that we can
easily get from India and likewise India can import good from
Pakistan, which will benefit India greatly",
said Pravesh Bande, leader of the 'Made
in Pakistan' delegation.
"We want this trade between the two
countries to increase and the
platform
that India has provided us here in the fair, we will try to do the
same for India in Pakistan and to do it political atmosphere and
friendship is necessary," he added.
The fair also had sumptuous and
mouth-watering cuisine of Pakistan, and the hardest to resist were
the kababs, tikkas and haleem provided by the famous 'Warsi Food' of
Karachi.
"People are reminded about Pakistan when
they taste our food. Pakistani food is very good and tasty. We feel
very happy. I believe that people of both countries love each other
and that's why we bring food here every year," said Nadeem Ahmed,
owner of Warsi Foods.
Ratandeep Singh, a visitor from Mohali,
said: "It was really good, obviously because families, being from
Pakistan, and we have attachment with Pakistan, and in this sort of
things, you actually get to eat. We have heard about Pakistani food,
Pakistani
dresses
and other stuff they produce, but these sort of things actually give
us a chance to see them and taste them and what else can you ask
for."
Food, music and culture - there are many
commonalities between India and Pakistan, and if bilateral relations
between the two countries strengthen,
Punjab
will get the utmost advantage. By Sunil Sharma.
