What is the story about?
The Centre on Saturday clarified that the recent phone conversation between US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not include billionaire Elon Musk, firmly rejecting reports suggesting
his participation.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said the March 24 call was strictly between the two leaders. “We have seen the story. The telephone conversation on 24 March was between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Donald Trump only,” an MEA spokesperson said.
The clarification comes after a report by The New York Times, citing unnamed US officials, claimed that Musk had joined the high-level call during a sensitive period marked by the ongoing conflict in West Asia.
