After "Anti National" Infosys, Magazine Attacks Amazon Over Bribe Charge

Earlier in September an article in Panchjanya lashed out Infosys - widely seen as one of India's biggest corporate and information technology stories in the global business community
Less than a month after Panchjanya - a journal with roots in the RSS, the ruling BJP's ideological mentor - attacked Infosys in one of its articles, accusing the information technology giant of an "anti national conspiracy" over repeated glitches in the income tax filing system, e-commerce behemoth Amazon has emerged as the publication's new target.
A new piece in the magazine refers to allegations Amazon's legal representatives bribed Indian officials, and asks: "What did it (the company) do wrong it needed to bribe... Why do people consider this company a threat to indigenous entrepreneurship, economic freedom and culture?"
Last week the government said alleged bribery charges involving Amazon would be fully investigated. The US-headquartered company has launched an internal inquiry into the claims.
"Amazon has been spending more than Rs 8,500 crore in legal fees. It's time to think where all it is going. The whole system seems to work on bribes and that is not the best of business practices," said government officials, lashing out at Amazon and urging it to punish those breaking the law.
