PM Narendra Modi is probably the most interactive Prime Minister the country has ever had, from being active on social media, religiously connecting with the audience every Sunday via Mann Ki Baat, to travelling the world to spread a few good words about the country. But if you still can’t get enough of the Prime Minister, e-commerce websites in India are now selling little cuddly stuffed toy doll of Narendra Modi.
Soft toy company Tickles has hit upon a solution, making Narendra Modi very accessible to kids today by manufacturing a cuddly Narendra Modi doll. The 40cm doll is dressed characteristically like Modi – in an orange kurta, white pyjamas and white jacket, which were listed for sale on e-commerce sites like Flipkart, Amazon India, and Snapdeal.
While Snapdeal and Flipkart are selling the toy doll for Rs 1,365. Where, Flipkart is offering a discount of 52 percent of the Modi doll.
Although, according to Snapdeal, Modi is still Gujarat CM and Prime Ministerial candidate, so the information is a bit dated.
But what is really interesting is the different product description on all three sites. According to a screenshot taken by Huffington Post, the Amazon descriptor was rather amusing: “Delight your little ones this year by presenting them with an adorable soft toy.
