Telangana industries minister K T Rama Rao has asked Tesla chief Elon Musk to set up shop in the southern state
A day after Tesla chief Elon Musk tweeted that the electric car major is working through a lot of challenges with the union government to launch its products in India, Telangana industries minister K T Rama Rao asked the US-based auto maker to set up shop in the southern state.
“Hey Elon, I am the Industry & Commerce Minister of Telangana state in India Will be happy to partner Tesla in working through the challenges to set shop in India/Telangana Our state is a champion in sustainability initiatives & a top notch business destination in India,” Mr Rama Rao tweeted on Friday.
Last year, Tesla had sought a reduction in import duties on electric vehicles (EVs) in India.
