Try not to attempt to utilize a connector.
Purchase another PSU power link which has an Indian fitting on its end. Most PC shops in India should sell them

If you "need" a surge protector, sure. But that one doesn't seem particularly good.

You should not go with Surge protectors. Use the original cables. , one strip having a fuse/breaker attached. They are made as cheaply as possible and easily overloaded.

Let me give you an example. If you fall from a bike with high speed and get run over by a heavy vehicle , how much did wearing a helmet save you. That's what those strips are like
