WHAT ABOUT MUMBAI?: Prince Charles speaks to Jerry Rao, Vice Chairman of India's National Association of Software and Service Companies, at a meeting in Mumbai on Tuesday.

The Prince showed keen interest in developing India-UK partnerships in areas such as information technology.

Stating that an Indian IT firm, Mastek, had helped clean up London's traffic congestion, the Prince of Wales noted that Mumbai's traffic too needed to be decongested. "You've cleaned up London's congestion. What about Mumbai?" he quipped amidst laughter.

Later, Kiran Karnik, Nasscom President, said that Prince Charles had expressed his admiration for the work being done in India.
