I don't have an @amazonIN app installed, but I refuse to buy anything from Amazon till it stops associating with activist-for-hire @ReallySwara, who insulted my country and my temples! #BoycottAmazon

@amazonIN I've downrated you on playstore and will not be renewing my prime membership till you guys disassociate yourself from the Hindu hater Swara Bhaskar. @ShefVaidya #BoycottAmazon

amazon must know that Snapdeal could never recover from associating with another India hater Amir Khan. Disassociate with Swara NOW, to contain the damage. #BoycottAmazon #UninstallAmazon

The online shopping website, amazon has recently hired Bollywood actress to endorse their products and this has not gone well with some of amazon's customers who have been supportive of the people accused of rape and murder of the eight year old. They have gone to the extent of canceling their orders and sharing the Screenshots on the social media.

The accused were allegedly rapists and murders who belonged to the extreme-Hindu right wing. The charge sheet filed by the Jammu and Kashmir police in the case has claimed that the accused performed the heinous act in order to scare the tribe away from the Hindu majority area.

The case later drew PM Narendra Modi's attention towards it who called the act a shame for humanity. However, there were voices against the police action which followed the case. The case subsequently saw the lawyers trying to take up the case being threatened by the goons and extremist groups.

However, there were still a few sane users who managed to get their version of the story heard.

Hi @amazonIN, you don’t need users who boycott you for signing up a woman who condemns rape. If you discontinue your association with her because a few people deleted the app over hurt sentiments, you will lose respect of a far greater base of sensible Indians.

Neither the actress Swara Bhaskar nor amazon responded to the online tussle.
