Controversy

In 2018, Vijaya Gadde landed into a controversy she, along with Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, was photographed holding a placard stating “Smash Brahmanical Patriarchy.” The incident happened during Dorsey and Gadde’s visit to India where they met Dalit activists to discuss their experiences on Twitter. Soon after their meeting ended, the activists gave Dorsey a sign reading “Smash Brahminical Patriarchy” with which he was photographed. Gadde was standing next to him in the photograph. Later, Gadde and Dorsey were criticised on social media for discriminating against Brahmins and giving fuel to caste and gender-based oppression in India. Later, Gadde took to her social media handle to apologise and clarified that the placard was presented to them by the Dalit activists. Stressing that Twitter aims to be an impartial platform, Vijaya wrote,

I’m very sorry for this. It’s not reflective of our views. We took a private photo with a gift just given to us – we should have been more thoughtful. Twitter strives to be an impartial platform for all. We failed to do that here & we must do better to serve our customers in India.”
