Village named as Snapdeal.com Nagar in India


This news would show people how crazy the Indians could go after their favourite brands.




Well that is not the only reason for changing a village's name .. But the main reason is that The Snapdeal group has brought fresh drinking water to them. They consider that help as a godly one so that they have gone to a utmost extent of changing their village's name from an god's(Lord shiva) name to ' Snapdeals.com'

So this is the story Kunal bahl the founder of snapdeals an 28 yr old CEO had some ideas to channelize his profit out of snapdeals and then bumped into this. So he made it !

His idea was nothing but just to install 15 hand pumps to this small village budgeting about just $5,000 for this project. The result was life changing to them,for those people now would not have to walk 2 miles to get clean water

The villagers found it too worthy so that they decided to change their village's name to Snapdeal.com Nagar. So when the press report asked him whether it was for the Marketing or PR ( page rank ) for his website., This great business man has said that he will show commitment to this project and the things they are going to do in the future. But we are not doing this to become a Multi billionaire but to make a change in the society around you ....."

Look at the snaps of the Village
