Amazon now sells slippers with Mahatma Gandhi's face
January 15, 2017

After getting rapped by External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and 'expressing regret' for selling doormats featuring the image of the Indian flag on its Canadian website, e-commerce giant Amazon.com has now listed a new item: slippers with the face of Mahatma Gandhi.

The Gandhi slippers been sold by CafePress on Amazon.com costs $16.99 (Rs 1,190). The brand claims that their 'graphic flip flop sandal designs are professionally printed... and will look great and make someone smile,' CNN News 18 reported.

Just last week, the e-commerce site was slammed by Swaraj, who demanded Amazon to tender an unconditional apology and take down all products disrespecting the Tricolour.
