Musk and Modi discuss collaboration during Indian PM's US visit

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with SpaceX CEO Elon Musk during his U.S. visit. They discussed topics like space, technology, and innovation. Musk aims to strengthen collaboration between U.S. and Indian entities. Musk has long sought to launch his Starlink satellite internet service in India. Regulatory challenges and competition from local telecom companies have delayed its entry. Recent policy changes may help facilitate Starlink's market entry. Musk's Tesla is also looking to enter the Indian market, facing high import duties and a small electric vehicle market. The Indian government is promoting local manufacturing and aims to increase electric vehicle sales significantly by 2030.
