The past couple of days haven’t been really comforting for the country’s leading e-commerce site, Flipkart. From downvoting its app to facing backclash on Twitter, the company’s support for Airtel Zero hasn’t gone down well with net neutrality supporters. Some even took to reminding CEO Sachin Bansal about his startup days and how difficult it could have been to compete on a platform like Airtel Zero.
Now, Flipkart has finally decided to pull out of Airtel Zero. In an official statement issued by the company, Flipkart says it ‘strongly believes in the concept of net neutrality’ and after a lot of dabate has finally decided to walk away from the ongoing discussion with Airtel for the platform Zero.
