Amazon sold pictures on their platform under the title ‘INKOLOGIE Hindu Gods Fine Arts Painting’
The Hindu Janajagruti Samiti has lodged a complaint against Amazon for selling obscene pictures of Lord Krishna and Radha, police said on Saturday.
In the complaint, the Hindu outfit said that the pictures being sold on the e-commerce platform under the title ‘INKOLOGIE Hindu Gods Fine Arts Painting‘ were hurting the religious sentiments of crores of Hindus.
At a time when crores of Hindus celebrated Krishna Janmashtami, Amazon’s plans to sell the obscene pictures could only be considered ulterior motives and it is against the law under IPC sections 295, 295 A, and 298. Legal action must be initiated against the company for hurting the feelings of Hindus, the complaint added.
The Hindu organization stated that a memorandum had been submitted to Subramanya Nagar Police station in Bengaluru, Karnataka for action against the website. Later, the organization said that the ‘obscene’ painting had been removed from the website after the turmoil.
“Boycott Amazon” started trending on social media after Hindu Janajagruti Samiti lodged a complaint against Amazon for disrespecting Hindu sentiments.
