The Economic Times reported that the Prime Minister’s Office held an important meeting. The focus was on accelerating Tesla’s entry into the Indian market.

According to the report, the meeting was mainly devoted to electric vehicle policy. It was within this framework that the need to speed up processes for the arrival of Tesla was emphasized.
