Made in China controversies

Newspapers have accused DataWind of reselling a product which was designed and manufactured in China, purchased off-the-shelf and then sold in India. DataWind in its response to the accusation, said that they sourced the kits from China and assembled and programmed them in India at its facilities in Amritsar, Punjab, and Delhi, and then supplied the same to the Indian Government HRD. Chinese manufacturers have said that they sold "ready-to-use" tablets to Datawind.
