Samsung India has apparently seen three of its public policy executives quit in India within a single week. The news arrives from sources close to the matter, so here are all the details regarding this matter.

The sources told Reuters that the South Korean tech giant has seen three of its executives quit that were a part of its public policy team. However, this news also comes as Samsung is facing regulatory issues in the Indian market. For those unaware, a public policy team play an integral role in tech companies since they help the firms to balance local regulation issues in any given nation. As of right now, Narendra Modi’s government (Indian Prime Minister) is pushing for domestic electronics manufacturing.

Furthermore, they have also been implementing stricter regulations on tech giants that operate within the country. As per sources close to the matter, Binu George that worked with the company’s corporate affairs and strategy, Surabhi Pant who worked with policy and public affairs, and Nikhil Kaura from the same team have resigned from Samsung within the last week. The three were a part of a seven member team that is headed by Aggarwal, who is a former bureaucrat that joined the company back in December.

He had previously also led public policy at Meta and Uber in India. These three executives have yet to respond to Reuters’ request for a comment. Similarly, Samsung has also decline to respond to this matter as well. The reason for the three execs quitting is still unclear, but it adds to the challenge that Samsung is facing in the region.
