Economic Times · 2d

Hotmail co-founder Sabeer Bhatia faced backlash after criticizing India’s economic progress, highlighting that 415 million people survive on $3.10/day despite being the fourth-largest economy. His comments on social media sparked widespread criticism from Indian users for being outdated and overly negative. Although some supported his focus on income inequality, most reacted negatively, viewing his stance as disconnected and provocative. Bhatia’s engagement only fueled the debate about expatriate public figures’ roles in domestic discussions.
