New Delhi: Former Indian Twitter head Manish Maheshwari has quit the company to work on ED-Tech’s efforts.
Maheshwari, who had been transferred to the US in August this year, shared developments on tweets.
“After almost three years, I will leave Twitter to dedicate ourselves to #Education and #Teaching.
Even though with a heavy heart that I left Twitter, I am happy with the impact that can be made globally through education,” he tweeted.

Maheshwari said he partnered with Tanay Pratap, who had worked as a senior software engineer with Microsoft.
“We will start by providing work training through a almost profound platform, which we call #Melaversity,” Maheshwari said.
In a series of tweets, Maheshwari highlights how Covid-19 has fundamentally changed not only the skills needed to be successful in the new economy but also how the skills are given, and role technology – especially metaverse – can play.
“#Ducation is very close to my heart.
I have become a teacher since high school when growing up in middle class households in the interior of India.
Even in Wharton, I paid my education by becoming a teaching assistant.
This is a chance.
To return to its roots,” he said.
The former Twitter executive noted that metumversity was very relevant for women in developing country markets because they equalized the playing field.
“Our vision is a high-quality and social learning experience socially for everyone, sent there wherever they are, with the price they can afford.
I look forward to your support when we build funds to send this #metaversity Vision,” he added.
Before joining Twitter, Maheshwari was a digital CEO of Network18.
He also works with organizations including Flipkart and P & G, among others.
In August, Twitter said Maheshwari moved to the US as a senior director (income strategy and operation) and focused on new markets in his new role.
It does not determine any reason for sudden change.
The US-based microblogging platform – which is estimated at 1.75 crore users in India – has provided controversies this year for the rules of new social media, and the Indian government has faced Twitter for intentional insubordination and failure to comply with IT rules, even though recurring reminders.
Twitter also faces a flak because of various actions taken on tweets and high profile user accounts.
In June, a pine was registered against Maheshwari and several others in connection with the probe associated with a video of a racial crime that became viral on social media.
