The reason behind a market for fakes is explained by ET \u2014 &#8220;Buying fake luxury products happens at a consumer&#8217;s volition when he wants to meet his esteem needs but not pay the price. It&#8217;s called &#8216;willful counterfeiting&#8217; in industry parlance. And consumers in India can easily get away with it since we don&#8217;t have laws that can get one arrested for purchasing fake premium products (unlike France and Italy).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-83163 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/12\/Screenshot-2020-12-25-at-01.24.47.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1062\" height=\"557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/12\/Screenshot-2020-12-25-at-01.24.47.jpg 1062w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/12\/Screenshot-2020-12-25-at-01.24.47-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/12\/Screenshot-2020-12-25-at-01.24.47-1024x537.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/12\/Screenshot-2020-12-25-at-01.24.47-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1062px) 100vw, 1062px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Therefore, images of a wheat brand named &#8216;Jio&#8217; were shared with the false claim that Reliance has entered the agricultural sector and the farm bills were passed to benefit the company.
