Ban turkey movement: After India’s ‘Operation Sindoor’, Pakistan also targeted Loc and residential areas on the border. Turkey openly supported Pakistan in a situation like this war. Not only this, most of the weapons used by Pakistan against India were supplied from China or Türkiye. There is tremendous anger among the people of India with this attitude of Türkiye and now Indians have decided to taste Turkey.

India plays Bigul against Türkiye

The ‘Ban Turkey’ movement has gained momentum in the country. Under this, the traders of Pune have stopped buying apples from Türkiye. Due to this, Turkish apples have almost disappeared from the local market. In place of Türkiye, now India’s businessmen are buying apples from other places like Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Iran. Turkish apples usually have a turnover of Rs 1,000-2,000 crore in a season. Traders say that this step is our message of solidarity with the country’s army and the Government of India.

People of Pune are also openly giving together

The apple merchant Suyog Jende of the Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) in Pune has reduced the demand for Turkish apple in recent times. Talking to news agency ANI, he said, “We have decided to stop buying apples from Turkey and instead they prefer to buy apples from Himachal, Uttarakhand, Iran and other areas.” This decision is in line with our duties of patriotism and support for the nation. People of Pune are also getting a lot of support in this movement of businessmen.
