I can't spot anyone, can you? They have invited many random tech people from companies that are still pretty new and not so famous. They have also invited M Night Shyamalan, who is a terrible director with just two half-decent movies to his credit, both made over 20 years ago. So if the standard is this low then they could have easily invited Menaka Guruswamy and Arundhati Katju, especially as the US liberal media and some Democratic politicians have spoken about human rights in India. Or people like Vikram Raghavan from the World Bank, or Sudhir Krishnaswamy. In fact, no lawyer at all have been invited and none of the other TIME 100 legal honourees, like Karuna Nandy and Vrinda Grover. Not even KKV or Harish Salve or Venkatramani or Tushar Mehta got an invite!
Very sad to see random tech bros being preferred over our legal luminaries. Even Nikhil Kamath got an invite. His only claim to fame is cheating in chess to beat Vishwanathan Anand and now dating 10 years younger Manushi Chillar after divorcing his wife. He also had a ▮▮▮.
I won't even bother to waste my time and explain things further. Your statement regarding Nikhil Kamath clearly shows you are simply out of touch with reality.
