"Emotion To All": Nagaland Minister's Pic With Ambassador Car Goes Viral
NDTV
Ambassador was manufactured by Hindustan Motors. It was discontinued in 2014 due to demand and a lack of funds.
Nagaland minister Temjen Imna Along posted an inspiring tweet as the work week began on Monday. In the accompanying photo, he is seen getting into a car - a white Ambassador - probably heading to office. The car was a prime choice for India's politicians and civil servants decades ago. Cavalcades of white Ambassador cars on the wide avenues of New Delhi, the seat of the government, was a familiar sight for Indians in 1950s and decades after, just like black limousines in Americans.

Despite discontinuation of its production in 2014, a small number of these Ambassador cars are still in use and the photo of one of them was posted by Mr Along on Twitter.
"It's Mondaaaay! Let's get ready for work! I too have an Ambassador," the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader said in his tweet.
