Police in India’s Pune city have started an investigation after a bedsheet reportedly carrying a “Made in Pakistan” label was discovered at a local religious fair. The incident has attracted significant public attention.
The matter came to light in the Chinchwad area of Pimpri-Chinchwad, where a woman purchased the bedsheet from a stall during the Sankashti Chaturthi fair near the Morya Gosavi Temple complex.
According to the buyer, the bedsheet appeared normal when purchased. She claimed the label became visible only after the item was washed, raising concerns about its origin.
