"We are ready to welcome many more as there are opportunities in clean energy, electric mobility, precision manufacturing, and green hydrogen," he said and invited the officials of the Hiroshima govt and business leaders to visit Telangana to see first-hand that Telangana can be their gateway to India and a platform for their global growth.
