“California and India have a very close and very dynamic relationship,” said the Governor.

“California has pioneered cleaning up the air and cleaning up the environment over many years. Collaboration on a regulatory and technical level could be helpful. There’s a lot to do,” Brown said in the statement.

The meeting with Prime Minister Modi is the latest in a series between Governor Brown and world leaders.

In Seattle last week, Brown met with Chinese President Xi Jinping after co-chairing the Third US-China Governors Forum.
