Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has recently met with Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk as part of his three-day state visit to the US. During the meeting, Modi and Musk discussed a variety of topics, including energy and spirituality.
Modi took to Twitter after the meeting to express his pleasure, writing that he and Musk had multifaceted conversations about a range of subjects. Musk responded with a tweet of his own, stating it was an honor to see Modi again and calling their conversation great.
Musk also commented on India’s potential for solar energy investment, saying he was a fan of Modi and proclaiming that India has more promise than any large country in the world. Additionally, he stated that Tesla would be coming to India as soon as it is humanly possible and expressed hope for bringing Starlink internet to the country as well.
Outside of the meeting, Musk recently tackled a philosophical question on the Full Send Podcast. When asked about his religion, he stated that while he generally agreed with the teachings of Christianity, he was not religious himself. However, he did express a belief that something created the universe or that the universe is here.
As Musk and Tesla continue their global endeavors, his interest in India aligns with the country’s growing focus on renewable energy. With his evident respect for Modi and India’s potential, it will be interesting to see how Musk’s ventures progress in the country and how the two nations may collaborate in the future.
