Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey won’t appear before House panel on February 25

New Delhi: Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey will not appear before the Parliamentary Panel on IT on February 25. Instead the company will send its head of public policy Colin Crowell.

The Parliamentary Panel on Information Technology had summoned Twitter head Jack Dorsey to appear before it on February 25, and had refused to meet “junior officials” of the microblogging site during its meeting on February 11.

The meeting had been called against the backdrop of growing concerns about safeguarding citizens’ data privacy and the possibility of social media platforms being used to interfere in the upcoming elections.
