CCPA issues notice to e-com platform Amazon for sale of ‘Ram Mandir’ prasad

The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) on Friday initiated action against the e-commerce platform Amazon for the sale of sweets under the name ‘Shri Ram Mandir Ayodhya Prasad’ on the platform.

The action was initiated based on a representation made by the Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT), alleging that Amazon is engaging in deceptive trade practices involving the sale of sweets under the guise of ‘Shri Ram Mandir Ayodhya Prasad’.

Upon investigating and finding the claim to be true, Rohit Kumar Singh, Chairman, CCPA issued a notice against the e-commerce platform.
