Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday visited a Tata Motors-owned Jaguar Land Rover factory in the West Midlands region of England that is known as the flagship Indian investment in the UK.
Modi, who has been driven around in a Jaguar for most of his three-day visit here, was given a tour of the new state-of-the-art production facility for the new Jaguar XE sports saloon.
“At the Jaguar Land Rover plant. Economic synergy between India and UK can achieve a lot,” Modi tweeted from the plant.
The Prime Minister was shown around the facility at Solihull in the West Midlands region of England by Tata Group Chairman Cyrus Mistry, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) CEO Ralf Speth and Warwick Manufacturing Group founder Lord Kumar Bhattacharyya.
The visit to the JLR factory, described as a symbol of Indians as “job creators” rather than “job takers” marked the last stop on Modi’s three-day tour during which he held delegation-level talks with his British counterpart David Cameron and was hosted for lunch by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace.
The JLR factory is largest investment by an Indian company in the UK.
Modi’s visit to the JLR plant came on third and final day of his UK visit.
