Google’s top India counsel resigns amid regulatory challenges
Bijoya Roy has resigned after 16 months as Google’s top legal counsel in India, sources familiar with the matter said. Her departure comes at a critical time for the U.S. tech giant, which is navigating regulatory challenges and currently lacks a head of government relations in the country.
India remains a key market for Alphabet Inc, as most smartphones run on its Android operating system, although Apple Inc is steadily increasing its market share.
Google is also facing antitrust investigations, stricter content removal regulations, and legal challenges related to artificial intelligence in India. Roy reportedly left last month for personal reasons to pursue her own venture.
This follows the resignation of Google’s head of public policy in India last year, marking the second high-profile exit in recent years. The company has yet to fill that position.
