Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday met prominent American personalities from different walks of life, including Tesla CEO Elon Musk who asserted that India has more promise than any other large country and that he is incredibly excited about its future.
Musk told reporters after meeting Modi that Twitter, the social media giant he owns, does not have a choice but to follow the local government. “Or it will get shut down,” he said when asked about the company’s former owner and CEO Jack Dorsey’s recent allegation against the Indian government. “The best we can do is to follow the laws in any given country,” he said, adding that it is impossible for ‘us to do more than that’. There are different rules and regulations for different forms of governments, and ‘we will do our best to provide the freest speech that is possible under the law’, Musk said.
