Delhi High Court Pointed Out The Difference Between Sandals & Chappals And Twitter Just Can’t Handle It

Earlier this week, the Delhi High Court ruled that footwear without a back strap is a sandal, not a chappal. This seemingly bizarre statement makes a lot more sense in context, though. The centre orders that export of sandals attracts 10% customs duty drawback while export of chappals attracts only 5% drawback, according to The Hindu. Chennai-based footwear manufacturer, Wishall International, claimed that their products were sandals, and demanded 10% drawback, but the centre and the Revenue Department claimed they were chappals, hence the company was entitled to only 5% drawback, according to the newspaper.

Of course, none of this matters to Twitter, and the ruling has led to some hilarious reactions online.

And then there’s this very important question, of course.
