According to the expos\u00e9, Gupta has won at least six giveaways hosted by Amazon India, dating back to 2014. These prizes have included a fashion hamper, a OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G, and Amazon gift cards worth \u20b91,000, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Admin of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/amazonIN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@amazonIN<\/a> is either biased or has connection with this winner.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/amazon?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@amazon<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AmitAgarwal?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AmitAgarwal<\/a> take note<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nizm7o7U50\">https:\/\/t.co\/nizm7o7U50<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8yRWwtXKbp\">https:\/\/t.co\/8yRWwtXKbp<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DjfaY7wvuG\">https:\/\/t.co\/DjfaY7wvuG<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/J2nhMebXVL\">https:\/\/t.co\/J2nhMebXVL<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bS3BSjfXji\">https:\/\/t.co\/bS3BSjfXji<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BzSmDJ9E0e\">https:\/\/t.co\/BzSmDJ9E0e<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vpTFuYNtCz\">https:\/\/t.co\/vpTFuYNtCz<\/a><\/p>&mdash; crypt0holicpoet.bnb \ud83d\udd36 (@Crypt0holicpoet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Crypt0holicpoet\/status\/1843564129900212405?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 8, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>The X user accused Amazon India of favoritism, suggesting that the contest winners were preselected from an insider circle. \u201cThese admins are insiders.
