Meta apologizes for Mark Zuckerberg comment

Facebook’s parent company ‘Meta’ has apologized for the comments made by Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg regarding India. Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on IT and Communication Nishikant Dubey gave this information through a post on social media platform X on Wednesday. Nishikant Dubey had said on Tuesday that the Parliament’s Standing Committee on Communications and Information Technology will summon Meta in this matter.

Nishikant Dubey said in a post on X on Wednesday that the Indian Parliament and government have the blessings of 140 crore people. The official of Meta (Meta India) has finally apologized for his mistakes. This victory belongs to the common citizens of India. By making Narendra Modi the Prime Minister for the third time, the public has introduced the country’s strongest leadership to the world. Now our committee’s responsibility on this issue ends. We will call these social platforms on other topics in the future.

what is the whole matter

Recently, Facebook founder and Meta CEO Zuckerberg participated in ‘Joe Rogan Podcast’. During this time he had made a controversial comment on India’s elections. The CEO of Meta had said that after the Covid-19 pandemic, elections were held in many countries of the world including India and many governments, including India, have lost. He had said that this defeat shows that people’s confidence has decreased after the pandemic.

Obviously this comment of Zuckerberg regarding India is wrong. NDA under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi won the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in India and formed the government for the third consecutive time. Zuckerberg’s comment caused a lot of controversy in India and the government took the matter seriously and summoned a Meta India official.
