After flag incident, flip-flops with Gandhi image now on Amazon

[Windjammer]

Close on the heels of the Indian flag incident, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj has now received several complaints of Amazon selling flip-flops with Mahatma Gandhi's image.

Some Twitter users have tagged Swaraj in their tweets complaining that the beach sandals with Gandhi's image were being sold on the Amazon US site.

The posting on the Amazon says, "CafePress - gandhi Flip Flops - Flip Flops, Funny Thong Sandles, Beach Sandles" with a listed price of USD 16.99.

Earlier this week, after she received a complaint about Amazon Canada selling doormats depicting Indian flag on its site, Swaraj reacted sharply and asked the e-retailer to withdraw the products and tender an unconditional apology, failing which no official of Amazon will be granted Indian visa and the ones issued earlier will also be rescinded.

Following the stern message, Amazon expressed regret for "offending" Indian sentiments and informed Swaraj about removal of the offensive product from its Canadian website.

One wonders if Amazon are deliberately provoking Indians or is it simply because Gandhi used these types of sandals.
Either way, very inconsiderate on their part.

I am sure these are Chinese trolling the Indians on Amazon..it makes no sense to put gandhi portrait on flip flops

A few days ago there was the Indian flag on a door mat and now this.That's why I like Vikings. At least they had respect for their enemies just before they took off their heads and pillaged the village.

Real men dont kill their enemy because they hate them, they kill them because they love what they are protecting ie their land, culture, religion and families. This is cheap shit. Lets be Vikings!

Whatever views we have of our enemies, this is unacceptable. I'm not a big fan of Ghandi, but he was a leader of Indian independence. Millions adore him. So respect should be given. This is Western shit. They revere nothing and no-one. Sick in the head.
