Facebook employees are on record 'abusing' PM: Ravi Shankar Prasad
Union IT minister Ravi Shankar Prasad wrote a letter to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg over the "political predisposition" of the social media giant's India team. Prasad said in his letter that he has been informed that in the run up to 2019 Lok Sabha polls, there was "concerted effort" by Facebook India to not just delete pages or substantially reduce their reach but also offer no right of appeal to affected people who're supportive of right-of-centre ideology. His letter comes after the Congress targeted the Centre citing a media report which claimed that Facebook executive Ankhi Das expressed support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of the 2014 Lok Sabha polls.
