Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has invited Tesla owner Elon Musk, who has acquired the microblogging site Twitter, to manufacture and sell his electric vehicles in India. He, however, said manufacturing the vehicles in China and selling in India was not a good proposition.

“He (Musk) cannot manufacture in China and sell in India. That would not be a good proposition,” Gadkari, who was addressing the ‘Raisina Dialogue 2022’ organised by the External Affairs Ministry, said on Tuesday. He said India had competency, vendors and technology that Musk could be looking for. TNS

Export no hurdle
Come to India and start manufacturing. India is a huge market. There are ports available. Export will not be a problem. Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
