Confirming Zuckerberg's visit to Taj, Image Public Relation Pvt Limited — which handles Facebook public relation in India — said, "Yes, CEO of Facebook did visited Taj Mahal on Tuesday."However, Ram Ratan, Archaeological Survey of India conservation assistant, Taj Mahal claimed, "We had no idea about his visit to Taj. It might be possible that he wanted to keep his visit low profile to avoid unnecessary attention."
According to CISF official source, "Since nobody knew about Mark visit, he must had walk through long queue of security check like all ordinary tourist do."The tech entrepreneur will visit IIT Delhi tomorrow to interact with students and faculty at the Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi in a town hall.
Last month during PM Modi visit to US, Zuckerberg had shared an anecdote about his earlier visit to India and claimed that, "when things weren't really going well — we had hit a tough patch and a lot of people wanted to buy Facebook — I went and I met with Steve Jobs and he said that to reconnect with what I believed was the mission of the company, I should go visit this temple in India that he had gone to early in the evolution of Apple, when he was thinking about what he wanted his vision of the future to be."
