SNAPDEAL, is an Indian e-commerce portal and has an app that is being used by millions of Indians. They are now busy uninstalling Snapdeal from their phones in protest as they saw fellow social media users calling for boycott of the Snapchat app. Many people uninstalled the app from their smartphones and went to app stores to give it poor ratings. Now, Snapdeal is in a soup again, as many Indians -- who have hearsay knowledge about the Snapchat CEO remark and the #BoycottSnapchat campaign -- are mistaking their app for Snapchat and uninstalling it from their devices. The number of people uninstalling Snapdeal, thinking its the Snapdeal CEO who said Indian is poor, is increasing and so are the poor ratings on the app in the app stores.
