Enraged Indians uninstall Snapdeal instead of Snapchat after CEO remark row

The latest controversy regarding Snapchat was started with the call to boycott and uninstall the messaging chat app Snapchat after the CEO Evan Spiegel was accused of dubbing India as a poor nation.

This turned into a cruel joke, when the boycott call to 40 lakh Snapchat followers was misdirected towards the Indian e-commerce portal Snapdeal.

The social media rocked it with messages against Snapdeal and threatened to stop using its services.

The timing couldn't have been worse with Snapchat trying to evaluate merger offers from Paytm and Flipkart.
