Ban Facebook,google,whatsapp in India: Mittal

New Delhi April 30: As we knew that America President Donald Trump turns more protectionist on the issue of H1 b visa, from this perspective Bharathi Airtel Telecom cahirman fired on Donald Trump here on Saturday.

While coming to matter, Airtel Chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal on Saturday had said that Indian people should have to ban the Facebook and google and as well as WhatsApp respectively because it has similar homegrown apps in India.

However, he again said that Not overly concerned about protectionism as his business is "rooted in the domestic market", Mittal highlighted that it is unfair that movement of Indian workers gets restricted, while foreign firms make huge profits in India.

"If you come to a situation where skilled workers which actually drive your economy back home are going to be denied (entry) or Indian companies are forced to pay a particular salary just to become uncompetitive in those countries, I think that becomes an affirmative action against the companies that want to do trade there," he said.



Citing examples of tech firms like Google, Facebook and WhatsApp that have millions of users in India, Mittal questioned if these companies should be allowed to operate in India even as similar homegrown apps are already there in the country.

"You can't have (a situation) that on one hand and you have 200 million customers on Facebook, 150 million on WhatsApp, 100 million people on Google... Would we say we don't want FaceBook (and) Google to operate in India, we have homegrown apps," the Bharti Airtel Chairman said.
