Several Indian users took to Twitter and complained of issues they were facing with Google services such as Gmail, Docs, Drive and Meet. Google’s email client wasn’t letting users send emails or attach files. However, after a few hours of the services were restored for all users.

The global tech giant apologised for the rather long global outage. “We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience and continued support,” the company said.

“System reliability is a top priority at Google. We are making continuous improvements to make our systems better,” the company said.
