His appointment comes at a time when Meta and Indian authorities have locked horns regarding allegations of the tech firm’s anti-competitive practices in the country.
In November, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) had fined the company over antitrust violations and restricted popular messaging platform WhatsApp – which Meta owns – from sharing user data with other Meta-owned applications for advertising purposes for a period of five years.
Meta had disagreed with the CCI‘s order and had warned of a hit to its business. It won a major relief earlier this year when an Indian tribunal temporarily suspended the five-year data sharing ban.
