Meta apologies for Mark Zuckerberg’s India comments, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey says matter closed

Facebook parent company Meta on Wednesday apologised for its CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s comments on India being among the countries where the incumbent lost power after handling the COVID-19 pandemic, saying the remarks were an “inadvertent error”.

The apology came soon after Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw slammed Zuckerberg’s “misinformation” and his party’s MP Nishikant Dubey said a parliamentary panel will summon Meta over the comments.
