This petition will be delivered to Rajeev Chandrasekhar
The submission combines verified company signatures, documented public cases, and aggregate economic impact—not anonymous complaints.

Petition recipient
Rajeev Chandrasekhar
Technologist, entrepreneur and former Union Minister of State for Electronics & IT.
This petition is being directed to him because his record connects platform technology, Indian entrepreneurship, and national digital policy. The ask is practical: a credible escalation path for verified Indian businesses hurt by Meta account restrictions and support failures.
A fair, time-bound escalation path for Indian businesses would turn his long-standing commitment to an open, safe, trusted and accountable internet into measurable protection for Indian founders.

How dependent are Indian businesses on Meta?
57%
Participating businesses report that 57% of their revenue depends on Meta platforms on average.
Why this matters
Revenue stops overnight
A single restriction can halt sales for businesses that depend on Meta for customer acquisition.
Limited human support
Businesses are often left in automated support loops without access to a qualified reviewer.
Jobs are impacted
Disabled accounts affect founders, employees, creators, agencies, and customers.
