February,23,2017:
These products are deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage Religious feelings
We will not rest until company stops selling products bearing the religious symbols and figures in India and, if possible in United States, stated Naresh Kadyan, who has filed a complaint against two US-based online retailers for selling beer with the Lord Ganesha's picture on its label and a footwear sporting 'Om' symbol.
Bharat Scouts and Guides Commissioner Kadyan has lodged two complaints against website yeswevibe.com for selling shoes with Om symbol and another against lostcoast.com for using Lord Ganesha's image on the beer bottle packaging and the labels.
Kadyan further added that the issue should not be viewed as a religious one as these symbols are considered to be source of positive energy for people.
Kadyan had first written letter to Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) to register an FIR against websites and asked them to ensure that products are removed from the sale.
Second complaint was filed at Delhi's Prashant Vihar police station, in which it was stated that symbol Om is affiliated with the religious feelings and beliefs of the Hindu communities across the globe.
