WhatsApp & data-facebook officials resigned on the same day..?
Abhijit Bose, head of the indian branch of whatsapp, the main business unit of Meta, has announced that he will step down from his position. While Ajit Mohan, the head of the indian branch of Facebook's parent company, Meta, announced his resignation on november 3, Abhijit Bose has left another top official. Meta india has been affected as a whole due to the exit.
Who is this Abhijit Bose..? What did he achieve in the whatsapp india branch..?With whatsapp being the main service used by people of all ages today, it is a big shock that Abhijit Bose, the head of whatsapp india, who is responsible for taking it to the next level, has resigned from his post. Today, not only Abhijit Bose but also Facebook's director of public policy, Rajiv Agarwal, has left the company altogether. Recently, many controversies have emerged regarding Meta services and posts, and now top officials are leaving one after the other.
In 2018, Abhijit Bose was appointed as the president of whatsapp for the first time in india, when no country had given him the post. The appointment of Abhijit Bose marked the first step in whatsapp becoming a more prominent business. Abhijit Bose was appointed to the role with the primary responsibility of driving the payments business of the whatsapp platform and growing the messaging app's customer base and usage in India. Prior to joining as the india head of whatsapp, Abhijit Bose was the co-founder of the payments services company Ezetap.
Earlier this year, Razorpay bought all the shares of Ezetap for cash.With Meta CEO mark zuckerberg recently laying off 11,000 people, around 3 top executives left the Meta india Group in november alone. But the resignation of these 3 top officials has nothing to do with the layoff of 11,000 employees, Meta said.
Following this, Shivnath Tughral, director of public policy at whatsapp, has now been appointed by Meta to lead the company's public policy division across its three platforms, whatsapp, data-facebook, and instagram, the company said.But Metta has not yet announced who is going to replace Ajit Mohan, head of Metta india, and Abhijit Bose, india head of WhatsApp. As Meta tries to cut costs, whatsapp, data-facebook, and instagram are all three likely to appoint a single leader.
