Amazon has yet again found itself mired into controversy for allegedly selling doormats, slippers and toilet seat covers with the image of Hindu deities crafted in it.

It all started after a Twitter user shared the images of such products with a photo of Hindu Gods and Goddesses, angry Indians have called for a boycott of Amazon and as a result, #BoycottAmazon is trending on the micro-blogging site with over 12 thousand tweets. Several users are tweeting along with the screenshots with hashtag #Boycottamazon show different items that disrespect India's religious belief.

There has been no official clarification by Amazon over the issue as yet. However, it is worth the note that these products are not for sale in India.
