Manish Chopra, who oversaw Facebook parent Meta‘s partnerships operations in India, has chosen to leave after working there for four and a half years. This most recent change represents Meta India’s fourth significant resignation in the previous twelve months.
Ajit Mohan, the former head of India, and Rajiv Aggarwal, the former head of public policy, both left their positions in November 2022. The CEO of WhatsApp India, Abhijit Bose, left the organization around the same time. After they left, Mohan and Aggarwal joined Snap and Samsung, respectively, while Bose declared his desire to establish a new business.
Manish Chopra took over as temporary boss when Ajit Mohan left Meta for a brief two-month time before Sandhya Devanathan was appointed to run Meta’s India division on January 1, 2023. Chopra announced his leaving on LinkedIn and added that he will be helping with the transition over the coming weeks.Â
