<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">As you may be aware, several countries, including mine, have restricted access to LinkedIn and other social media platforms. This restriction means that individuals like myself
are unable to create or access LinkedIn accounts. Consequently, we are unable to fulfill the mandatory LinkedIn URL requirement in the SOI form. </span></p>
<p class="elementToProof" style="text-align: justify; line-height: 107%; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Also its completely a wrong expectation to have an individual working in any company will have online professional profile (URL) on

It would be highly beneficial if alternative options or exemptions could be considered for individuals facing these accessibility challenges. </span></p>
