NEW DELHI: India has been slammed by several international mediaorganizations over the new Indian Army T Shirt by the top BJP man.

Delhi BJP spokesperson Tajindher has sparked national controversy sixmonths after his online shopping company Tshirtbhaiya.com started sellingT-shirts glorifying the use of a human shield in Kashmir last year by anIndian Army major.

The T Shirt in question has a representational image of a man tied to thefront of a jeep. It’s an obvious reference to the incident when an allegedstone-pelter from central Kashmir was tied in front of an Army jeep lastyear.

Major Nitin, the officer who had done it, had said it was done to deterstone-pelters during the 2017 bypolls.

The image is also accompanied by a caption — “Indian Army saving your a**whether you like it or not”. Bagga claims he has sold thousands of themonline.

The T-shirt has attracted the attention of international media due to thepicture that many in India and outside have found to be in bad taste.

An article dated March 25 on the website of The Express Tribune of Pakistanstates the “clothing brand has launched T-shirts to make fun of thepersecuted Kashmiris”. Another article by Aljazeera.comlink> says this act has furtheroutraged the Kashmiris who have termed it “selling the pain”.
