As per analysts, it is expected that a partnership with Reliance Jio will help Facebook to set up UPI payments schemes in WhatsApp along with resolved encryption issues with the government. However, no official statements have been released by the companies regarding the matter.
It is also expected that Google might also close a deal with Reliance Jio soon. As per the reports, Facebook almost finalised the 10% stake in Reliance Jio, but the negotiations were postponed and cancelled due to spread of the deadly virus Covid-19. The government has already locked down the entire nation for 21 days and no trade deals can be made in a lockdown situation.
