A vibrating condom marketed by the state run Hindustan Latex Limited is raising the hackles of some Indian politicians.
Politicians on both the Left and the Right in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh are sounding off their irritation on the Crezendo condom that it’s actually a sex toy.
The politicians are seeking an immediate ban on sales of the Crezendo condom.
HLL officials claim that Crezendo has generated strong consumer interest, according to a story in the Daily News & Analysis.
Since its launch, Crezendo had generated considerable consumer interest and demand all over the country. It was launched in the wake of market surveys suggesting fall in condom use. A major reason cited for this was lack of pleasure in the use of condom and Crezendo was introduced as a pleasure-enhancer, [an HLL official] said.
HLL say it has no plans to withdraw the condom entirely but may do so from the state of Madhya Pradesh.
