Twitter India’s public policy head Mahima Kaul resigns
New Delhi/IBNS: Twitter India’s public policy head Mahima Kaul has resigned from her post citing personal reasons, a top official of the global company said.
Kaul said she has stepped down from her role in the micro-blogging firm to take some time off.
"At the start of this year, Mahima Kaul decided to step down from her role as Twitter Public Policy Director for India and South Asia to take a well-deserved break," Twitter global policy head Monique Meche said in a statement.
"It’s a loss for all of us at Twitter, but after more than five years in the role we respect her desire to focus on the most important people and relationships in her personal life. Mahima will continue in her role till the end of March and will support the transition,” the statement read.
Kaul’s resignation comes at a challenging time for the microblogging website, which came under fire from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology for “violating Indian law” by not taking down tweets related to “farmers genocide”.
