In a significant move, BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal has appealed to Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal to suspend the forthcoming festival sales by e-commerce giants Amazon and Flipkart.

Khandelwal contends these sales will further harm domestic traders by perpetuating anti-competitive practices.

The MP's call follows media reports alleging that the Competition Commission of India found big brands colluding with online retailers, creating an uneven playing field for local sellers.
