India is a world power: Elon Musk's father
Errol Musk, the father of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, on Monday said India is already a global power whether anyone likes it or not.
"Well, I think it's already a world power. India is a world power. When you have the fourth largest GDP in the world, you're a world power, whether you like it or not," Errol, who arrived in Delhi on Sunday, said.
The South African businessman has begun his five-day India tour will include a visit to the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. While speaking to the mediapersons, Errol said India had a very humble approach to these (GDP) things, which is rather nice. "....nicer than other places that push themselves. I would say India has a great deal to contribute to the world," he said.
The 79-year-old who joined the global advisory board of homegrown Servotech will also visit its solar and EV charger manufacturing unit in Safiabad, Haryana and participate in a plantation drive.
Servotech MD Raman Bhatia, on Musk joining the board, said the latter is guiding them on how to expand their company globally and how to prepare for it.
"He is helping shape us into a global leader, and he’s an excellent fit as an advisor who will play a key role in our international expansion," said Bhatia.
