‘Organiser’ accuses Amazon of funding Christian conversions

RSS mouthpiece “Organiser” has accused American e-commerce giant Amazon of financing a “Christian conversion module” in northeastern states of India and being involved in suspected money laundering.
In a cover story on its latest edition, the magazine said, “E-commerce giant Amazon is financing the Christian conversion module run by American Baptist Church (ABM). There is a possibility of a money laundering ring run by multinational companies and ABM to fund India’s huge missionary conversion mission.”
The All India Mission (AIM), the frontal organisation of ABM, was allegedly being “continuously funded by Amazon through its foundation Amazon Smile,” according to the RSS-affiliated magazines cover article, “Amazing Cross Connection.”
“Amazon is sponsoring the conversion module of All India Mission by donating money against every purchase by an Indian,” the magazine alleged, adding that AIM had openly claimed on its website that it had converted 25,000 people to Christianity in northeast India.
Amazon has come under fire from RSS-linked publications, which have dubbed it “East India Company 2.0.”
The business allegedly paid millions of rupees in bribes in October of last year, according to the RSS-affiliated Hindi weekly Panchjanya, in exchange for favourable government policies.
Amazon wants to establish its monopoly in the Indian market, Panchjanya claimed, and said, “For doing so, it has started taking initiatives for seizing the economic, political and personal freedom of the Indian citizens.”
