The Facebook founder made a decision to head straight to the marvelous Indian heritage upon his landing in India and posted a picture of him from there that shows him staring at the marble beauty.

“I’m in India for our Townhall Q&A tomorrow (Wednesday), and I chose to visit the Taj Mahal. I’ve always wanted to see this”, he said in his Facebook post. “It’s incredible what people can build – and what love can motivate us to build”, Zuckerberg wrote. However, not many IIT-Delhi students will be able to attend the townhall.

The members of the Ceylon Parliamentary Delegation visited the Taj Mahal, Agra, during their visit in March, 1954.

The Facebook CEO is expected to speak for 15 minutes and spend the next hour answering questions from the audience.

Last month, Zuckerberg had hosted Prime Minister Narendra Modi at an event in Palo Alto in California.

He also highlighted that in India over 130 million people use Facebook and this is the reason that he would be especially coming down to Indian and would be having a fruitful talk with the IIT students where the students can asked their queries which they too have mentioned on the Facebook’s comment column. “And that is something I have always remembered over the last ten years as we built Facebook”, Zuckerberg had said. He said, “It is mainly because India is one of the countries with largest users outside of the U.S. for the company”. “This is a story that I have not told publicly and very few people know”, he had said at the Facebook headquarters on 27 September.

Tomorrow Zuckerberg will hold town hall meet in New Delhi
