Shifting the discussion, PM Modi also fondly recalled his long-standing association with Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, dating back to his tenure as Chief Minister of Gujarat.

Highlighting governance reforms under his administration, PM Modi drew parallels between Musk's principles of efficiency and transparency and his government's efforts.
