Nagpur, Aug 23 (IANS) A group of people created ruckus at an office of Amazon India in Nagpur district of Maharashtra, police said.
In a viral video, a group of people seen shouting the slogan ‘Vande Matram’ ransacked an e-commerce office. The incident was reported at the Ganeshpeth area on Tuesday afternoon.
They were protesting against the sale of Pakistani flags and a book which allegedly hurts religious sentiments of Hindus on the e-commerce platform.
