Verbal enquiries at your India office revealed that my account has been restricted in India and is unavailable in India. Why? Noone in your office is giving any reasons.

Thats pretty bad service. Don’t bow down to our Prime Minister so much. Else he will allow u to run only his own account in India,” he said. Kejriwal alleged that officials at Meta’s India office informed him verbally about the restriction but did not disclose the reason behind the action or explain how it could be reversed. He also claimed that emails sent to the company had received only routine acknowledgements.The AAP leader further accused Meta of “bowing down” to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging political bias in the platform’s actions.Meta has not yet publicly responded to Kejriwal’s claims.
