Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

The Race is on !

 


 

Context :

Maharashtra invites Tesla to invest in state; talks held

Extract :

Maharashtra is looking for potential investment from electric car major Tesla in the state and has held discussions with the company , weeks after the American firm revealed its plans to enter the Indian market

 

Ø  State Tourism Minister Aaditya Thackeray said in a tweet on Thursday that Industries Minister Subhash Desai held a video call, in which he also participated, with the Tesla team, inviting the electric car maker to Maharashtra

 

Ø  “ This evening I had the opportunity to participate in a video call by Industries Minister @Subhash_Desai ji with @Tesla team to invite them to Maharashtra. I was present not because of just the investment but my firm belief in electric mobility & sustainability @elonmusk “ , Thackeray said in a tweet


===================================================

 

Extract :

 

Ø  The Karnataka government is also trying to get Tesla set up an R&D center in the State

 

Ø  A press statement issued by Desai’s office said te Maharashtra Government is rolling out the red carpet to the company

 

Ø  Desai told the Global Director of Tesla, Rohan Patel [ rpatel@teslamotors.com / rpatel@ncseglobal.org / rohan@tesla.com ] , that the 2019 policy of Maharashtra Government lays special emphasis on non-polluting e-vehicles

 

Ø  The State government will accord customized “ VIP treatment along with commensurate basic infrastructure facilities and special incentives for the company to make its foray into the India automotive industry “ , he added

 

Ø  Tesla can get a foothold in the Indian automotive sector along with special incentives through the investment in the facility, the statement said

 

 ==================================================

 Congratulations ,

 

 Shri Subhash Desai

( Industries Minister – Maharashtra / Subhash.desai12@gmail.com / min.industry@maharashtra.gov.in )

 

Shri Aaditya Thackeray

( Tourism Minister – Maharashtra / 'adityathackeray@me.com' )

 

Shri Venugopal Reddy

( Principal Secretary Industries – Maharashtra / psec.industry@maharashtra.gov.in )

 

 Dear Sirs,

 

I wish you all success in bringing Tesla to Maharashra

 

As far as those “  Special Incentives “ are concerned , you may want to look up :

 

 Fastest Finger First ?  …………………………………….[ 07 Oct 2020 ]

 

ARA & M Ltd ?............................................[ 02 Oct 2020 ]

 

Of course, many other States will try to woo Tesla with their own packages of “ Special Incentives


But you can try one thing which will convince Rohan Patel that you are sincere / you mean business ( Americans want you to “  Walk your Talk “ )


Immediately nominate ( re-designate ) a Senior Secretary from the Industries Ministry :

SECRETARY – TESLA PROJECT

( exactly what convinced Elon Musk to set up factory in China , last year )


His mandate ?

Not go home till Tesla starts production in Maharashtra !

( exactly what Mukesh Ambani would do if he had this mandate )


There is no better way to convince Tesla re your “ Honesty of Purpose

Other states are bound to come up with their own versions of “ Secretary – Handholding ( Tesla )
