Prime Minister Modi will meet Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in a short while from now. Both will take part in a Townhall Q & A (Question and Answering) session at the Menlo Park headquarters.
The event is being projected as one of the exciting events in Minister Modi’s five-day visit to the United States.
Meanwhile, Zuckerberg has voiced a strong support for the Digital India initiated by Prime Minister Modi’s government in his Facebook post.
“Looking forward to discussing this with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Facebook today,” Zuckerberg had earlier said in a Facebook post.
“I’ll host Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a Townhall Q&A at Facebook HQ, where I’m looking forward to having a conversation about what connectivity means for India’s future,” Zuckerberg wrote in a post on Facebook.
