What would you do if you forget your Gmail password? For Indian Twitter user, @Madhan67966174, the answer was simple — ask Google's CEO for tech support. He replied to one of the tweets by Sundar Pichai and asked if the Google boss could help him reset his password. “Hello, sir. How are you? I need help with my Gmail ID password. I forgot how to reset the password. Please help me,” Madhan wrote, replying to one of Pichai's recent tweets about COVID relief.

The Google CEO had just announced that his company would provide a Rs. 135-crore funding to UNICEF and the non-profit Give India to help the country in its fight against the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
