Amazon, after facing severe backlash online, has removed most of the aforementioned products from their website as such rugs are no longer available for sale.
I think Amazon USA already removed such products …
Still @amazon and other online sellers have to very careful on such products , they should develop a mechanism to check the products properly before making them online for selling. #BoycottAmazon https://t.co/A2F2lgDyCl

#BoycottAmazon… @amazonIN…. @amazon… Guys Ganesh and Shiva are Hindu gods and Hindu’s worship them. Request you to kindly remove this product. It’s not about being open minded but about respecting ones culture and religion. Thank you.
