Protest : Online store “Fab Furnish” denigrates Hindu Deities

Ashwin Shulapaksha Chaturthi, Kaliyug Varsha 5116

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) appeals devout Hindus to protest against an online store “Fab Furnish”, which is denigrating Hindu Dharma. This denigration is happening through having revered Hindu Deities on decorative items like door handles.

Link to such one of the denigrating items –

Below is a picture of one such item:

There are also many other denigrating items like pillow covers, key chains, wall clocks etc. in their online store. Below are the links and few images of the same.

Kind Attn. Sudarshana

Dear Sirs,

Subject: Request to stop advertisement/sale/manufacture of products with Hindu Deities symbols/pictures like Ethnic Brass Ganesha Door Handle.

This refers to my telecommunication with your M/s Sudarshanaji on 22.8.2014

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti is a registered NGO doing social, religious and National welfare work. Samiti is active throughout the world educating people about Dharma in a scientific way, campaigning against malpractices done under religious practices and solving problems connected with National, Religious and social fields. For further details, please refer to our website www.HinduJagruti.org.

We appreciate the glorification of Hindu Dharma by showing Hindu Deities on your products in the present difficult times. Accordingly, you might have put Deities’ pictures and religious symbols on your products.

However, during the use of such products they’re touched with dirty hands, washed with other dirty clothes, thrown away anywhere which may come under feet, go into the dust bin, gutter and as waste material etc. Thus, we find that there is denigration of Hindu deities, which hurts religious sentiments of millions of Hindus. This increases your destiny and SIN. The place of Deities’ pictures is the Temples and hearts of devotees. We have received a lot of complaints for the above issue. We feel that manufacturers are increasing the business by using Hindu deities’ pictures but actually it is denigration and an offense as per Indian Penal Code section 295A. Further, please note that using religious symbols on products is an offense as per Indian Trade Practice Act 1999.

In view of the above, we request you to stop the advertisement/sale/manufacturing of products with Hindu Deities symbols/pictures like Ethnic Brass Ganesha Door Handle etc.

Please acknowledge this letter and inform us in writing about the action taken by you.

Regards,

Shivaji Vatkar,

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti
