Tesla Eyes India, Trump Calls Factory Plan "Unfair"—Will Elon Musk Overcome Sky-High EV Tariffs
Tesla Eyes India: Tesla is ramping up its India expansion with plans for showrooms in Mumbai and New Delhi, along with a new recruitment drive.
But former U.S. President Donald Trump has called Tesla's potential factory in India "unfair" to the United States, criticizing the country’s 100% import tariffs on electric vehicles.
Elon Musk has long argued that these high duties block Tesla's entry into the world's third-largest car market, where domestic automakers like Tata Motors dominate.
Will Tesla finally break into India, or will tariffs and political tensions keep Musk’s ambitions in check?

Tesla has officially entered India, launching its first showroom at Mumbai’s BKC with the Model Y on display. Priced at ₹61 lakh on-road, the Model Y marks Tesla’s push into India’s luxury EV space. Initially imported from Berlin, Tesla’s India debut has sparked praise and criticism—Donald Trump slammed the move as “unfair” due to U.S. export tariffs. While Indian officials welcome the launch, local automakers fear disruption. Tesla’s arrival may accelerate EV adoption and reshape India’s electric vehicle policy landscape.

Donald Trump lashed out at Elon Musk after the Tesla CEO launched his new “America Party,” calling the move “ridiculous” and branding Musk a “train wreck.” Trump warned Musk’s third-party push would hand Democrats an advantage and undermine GOP unity. Musk fired back, condemning both major parties as corrupt and vowing to shake up Congress in 2026. The clash escalates as Trump celebrates his anti-EV mandate bill and accuses Musk of personal lobbying and political chaos.

Seventeen years after the deadly 2008 Malegaon blast rocked Maharashtra, a special NIA court in Mumbai has acquitted all seven accused — including BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur and Lt Col Prasad Purohit — citing lack of concrete evidence. The judgment came just one day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah told the Rajya Sabha that "no Hindu can ever be a terrorist." The court emphasized that terrorism has no religion and that justice cannot be based on public perception or moral bias. This landmark verdict reignites debates on communal narratives, judicial process, and political influence in terror trials.

In a fiery new outburst, U.S. President Donald J. Trump has launched an explosive attack on both India and Russia, warning of the collapse of their “dead economies” and telling Russia’s Dmitry Medvedev to “watch his words” or risk entering “very dangerous territory.” Trump dismissed India’s trade ties with the U.S., accusing New Delhi of imposing the world’s highest tariffs and claiming America has “done very little business” with the country.
Slamming Medvedev as a “failed former President,” Trump warned him not to provoke the U.S. with “delusional” statements about global politics. The sharp rhetoric signals rising tensions, especially as India maintains warm relations with Russia amid global realignments. Trump’s remarks, laced with economic and diplomatic threats, may significantly alter the dynamics between the U.S., India, and Russia — three nations at the crossroads of shifting geopolitical fault lines.

Elon Musk has just announced that his artificial intelligence startup xAI will soon launch a new kid-friendly app named Baby Grok. The app is expected to feature AI-generated content tailored for children, though Musk has yet to reveal specific features. The move comes just days after xAI launched Grok 4, the latest version of its chatbot, which previously sparked outrage for posting antisemitic content on X (formerly Twitter).
Musk’s announcement raises eyebrows across the tech world — is Baby Grok a sincere attempt at safe AI for children, or damage control following the Grok scandal? With xAI pushing boundaries at breakneck speed, and controversy still fresh, Baby Grok already faces scrutiny before its official debut. Musk’s pivot to children’s content could signal a new strategy for the troubled AI platform, as it tries to rebuild trust. But will the world trust Grok — even in its diapered form?

Trump In Epstein Trouble: A major rift has appeared within the MAGA movement as supporters turn on President Donald Trump. The controversy ignited after Trump publicly defended Attorney General Pam Bondi, a move seen by many conservatives as a dismissal of concerns surrounding the recently unsealed Epstein files. This defense has triggered an unprecedented backlash from his own base.
The fallout has been swift and visual. Influential conservative figures have condemned Trump's stance, and viral videos have spread across social media showing die-hard supporters burning their MAGA hats and other merchandise in protest. This public display of disillusionment signals a deep fracture within what was once Trump's most loyal demographic. As Trump scrambles to control the narrative with a 400-word post on Truth Social urging unity, even figures like Elon Musk have taken public jabs at him over the issue.
Sensing a critical moment of weakness, the Democratic party is moving quickly to capitalize on the Republican infighting. Former President Barack Obama is set to return to the political frontline, headlining a major fundraiser in New Jersey this Friday alongside DNC Chair Ken Martin. This event, Obama's first since the 2024 election, is designed to rally the Democratic base and frame the GOP's internal conflict as a major liability ahead of the crucial 2026 midterm elections.
This report from Oneindia News breaks down the timeline of the MAGA backlash, Trump's attempts at damage control, and the strategic moves being made by Barack Obama and the Democrats. Stay tuned for the latest updates on this developing story in US politics.
