He said “there is a very mischievous and baseless narrative sort to be presented about my closing comments at the board of trade meeting this morning. I was making a comment about encouraging Indian industry and Indian business to aspire for a 1 trillion dollar export target within the next 5 years and to encourage and enthuse the exporter community the comment that I made had a certain context”
“I would like to share with the people the exact context in which I made my comments. I quote I said let’s work together collectively with new ideas, new spirit of engagement and with new ideas believing that nothing is impossible and together we can achieve the 1 trillion target. I said, Don’t get into maths, those maths have not helped Einstein discover gravity. This line has sort to misinterpreted but the next line along with it has not been added and shown correctly."
The Commerce Minister also said "After this is said if he had gone only by structured formula and what was past knowledge I don’t think there would have been any innovation in this world. I think this operative line is not been correctly projected”.
While Einstein's general theory of relativity is one of the towering achievements of 20th-century physics, 17th century English scientist Sir Issac Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
