- Elon Musk has postponed his much-anticipated trip to India, originally scheduled for April 21-22, citing heavy Tesla obligations.
- Speculations arise regarding the reasons behind the delay, with political figures suggesting Musk may have reconsidered due to perceived political implications or public sentiment.
- Musk expresses eagerness to visit India later in the year and reaffirms commitment to exploring investment opportunities in the country.
Amidst high anticipation, Elon Musk’s visit to India, initially planned for April 21-22, has been deferred. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO cited pressing obligations with Tesla as the reason for postponing his trip. Despite the setback, Musk expressed enthusiasm about visiting India later in the year to explore potential investments and collaborations.
Speculations surrounding the postponement emerged, with political figures suggesting various reasons behind the decision. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh implied that Musk might have heeded to public sentiment, while Shiv Sena leader Priyanka Chaturvedi speculated on Musk’s potential reluctance to be involved in political campaigns.
Musk’s visit was anticipated to include meetings with spacetech startups and government officials to discuss investment prospects, particularly in electric vehicles and Starlink internet service. While the delay may have stirred curiosity, Musk’s reassurance of his intent to visit India later suggests continued interest in exploring opportunities within the country’s burgeoning tech landscape.
It was odd that @elonmusk was coming all the way to India to meet an outgoing Prime Minister. He too has now read the writing on the wall and decided to put off his visit.
INDIA’s PM will welcome him soon, and the INDIA Government will promote electric vehicles even more…

Elon Musk’s visit to India, originally scheduled for April 21 and 22, has been postponed.
He needs to attend Tesla’s earnings call on April 23, which may be the reason for the delay.
