Trump questions purpose of Modi Musk meeting during Indian PM's U.S. 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. Trump expressed uncertainty about the meeting's purpose but suggested it was related to Musk's business interests in India. Musk aims to launch his Starlink satellite internet service in India, facing regulatory challenges and competition from local telecom companies. The Indian government has adjusted its policies to facilitate satellite services, but Musk's high pricing may hinder market entry. Musk's Tesla has also struggled to enter the Indian market due to high import duties and a small electric vehicle market share. The Indian government is promoting local manufacturing to boost electric vehicle adoption.
