Toilet Seats with Ganesha & Kali Pictures withdrawn

Seattle based toilet seat manufacturer 'Sittin Pretty' came up with a new design with images of Lord Ganesh and Goddess Kali. These are the Gods worshipped by millions of Indians all over the world and should not be maligned by putting them over the toilet seats like this.

Several Hindu organizations started protest campaigns to have these products withdrawn. Thousands protested by sending emails, faxes and making phone calls. The efforts sustained. After a long campaign of protests, manufacturer withdrew these two designs from the market. American Hindus Against Defamation were at the forefront of this effort.

Thanks to all those who responded to our email protest call.
