Bhavish Aggarwal criticizes LinkedIn for deleting his posts without notification. He condemns the platform’s AI tool for imposing a political ideology on Indian users, emphasizing that his opinions cannot be erased.Ola founder and CEO, Bhavish Aggarwal, announced that his company will migrate its entire workload from Microsoft’s Azure to its own cloud service, Krutrim, within the next week. This move is a part of a broader critique against Western tech practices, particularly the imposition of what he terms as ‘woke’ ideologies that conflict with Indian cultural values.

Aggarwal crtiticised Microsoft-owned professional network LinkedIn, alleging that the platform deleted his post without notifying him. Taking to social media platform X, Aggarwal said that his firm will move its “entire workload out of Azure to our own @Krutrim cloud within the next week.”

He had earlier criticised the platform saying that their artificial intelligence (AI) tool was imposing a political ideology on Indian users which is unsafe and sinister.

“Dear @LinkedIn you deleted my post again! This time you didn’t even notify me or leave a trace since you removed the whole thread. Luckily my team takes screenshots,” the Ola CEO posted.

He further said that LinkedIn can delete “this one too but you can’t remove my opinion”.

“Since you’re owned by @Microsoft, I will be sharing my broader thoughts and some actions with everyone,” he commented.
