The soft noise of ceiling fans filled the Prime Minister's office as Rohan leaned back in his chair.
The victory in reshaping the narrative around the protests had boosted his credibility both domestically and internationally, but he knew there was no time to rest.
The next battle he will once again continue was economic, and his vision for India's automobile industry demanded immediate action.
He looked at Harish Patel, the Finance Minister, and KP Singh, the Foreign Minister, seated across from him.
Both men had notebooks in front of them, pens poised, waiting for Rohan to speak.
"This is critical," Rohan began, his tone measured but firm. "India cannot remain dependent on foreign imports for automobiles. If we are to modernize, we need to start building our own industry, and for that, we need technology, expertise, and investment."
