Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has expressed his disappointment over the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act. 

Talking to Ben Smith, Editor-in-Chief of Buzzfeed News, he said:

I think what is happening is sad… It’s just bad…. I would love to see a Bangladeshi immigrant who comes to India and creates the next unicorn in India or becomes the next CEO of Infosys.
