Earlier in the day, Rahul Gandhi had lunch with former German Chancellor Olaf Scholz during his 5-day visit to Germany.

On Tuesday, LoP Gandhi visited the BMW World museum in Munich, Germany, where he marvelled at the feats of Indian engineering being displayed with the TVS 450 cc motorcycle, developed in partnership with the German automobile manufacturer.

During the visit, he interacted with visitors while checking the display of various cars made by BMW.'India needs to start producing; production is the key to success in any country. Our manufacturing is declining; it should actually be going up,' Rahul Gandhi said during his visit.
