Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal visited the manufacturing facility of US-based electric vehicle major Tesla at Fremont, California, on Tuesday and highlighted India's role in contributing to Tesla's remarkable journey. During his visit, he engaged with Indian engineers and financial professionals, but missed Elon Musk's ''magnetic presence''.
Notably, the Twitter boss was unable to meet the minister in person as he was unwell. Responding to Mr. Goyal's post on his visit to the Tesla factory, the billionaire said he was honoured by the minister's visit and said that he looked forward to a future meeting.
"Visited @Tesla's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility at Fremont, California. Extremely delighted to see talented Indian engineers and finance professionals working in Senior positions and contributing to Tesla's remarkable journey to transform mobility,'' Mr Goyal wrote, sharing pictures of his visit to Tesla's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Fremont.
