Bill Gates holds discussions with Shaktikanta Das

New Delhi: Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates visited the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) office in Mumbai, where he held wide-ranging discussions with Governor Shaktikanta Das.

In a tweet, RBI said that Gates went to its office during his visit to India, where he is exploring business opportunities in sectors like health and education.

Gates had recently indicated that he wants to do business-related activities in India.

“Like every other country on the planet, India has limited resources. But it has shown us how the world can still make progress in spite of that constraint,” Gates had tweeted on Monday.

Union Minister of State for Electronics and IT, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, also met Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and had a “good, interesting conversation about India Stack and Artificial Intelligence (AI)”.

During the meeting at the office of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) here, Gates also presented Chandrasekhar a copy of his book, titled “How to Avoid a Climate Disaster”, which he signed as “Thanks Rajiv for our work together”.

Gates, Co-Chair in Bill Gates and Melinda Gates Foundation, is on his first tour of India since the Covid pandemic.
