Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be visiting Facebook's sprawling campus in Menlo Park in California for a townhall meeting on Sunday, and the social media giant is all set and 'serious' to host its VIP guest.

According to reports, Facebook has issued an advisory for its employees to dress decently for Modi's event. While it's formal business attire for men - suits, women have been asked to attend the event in 'nice dresses'. They have been advised against wearing "sleeveless shirts and shorts".

The reported dress code advisory from a company whose CEO - Mark Zuckerberg - wears casuals to work has surprised many.



In his first-ever Q&A session last year, Zuckerberg was asked the reason behind wearing the grey T-shirt, black hoodie and jeans to work everyday.

Zuckerberg said he owns multiple versions of the same T-shirt, as clothing, along with breakfast, is a "silly" decision he doesn't want to spend too long making.

"I'm in this really lucky position where I get to wake up every day and help serve more than 1bn people, and I feel like I'm not doing my job if I spend any of my energy on things that are silly or frivolous about my life, so that way I can dedicate all of my energy towards just building the best products and services," Zuckerberg had said.
