EV Policy Gets the Green Light To Prepare For 5 Lakh Vehicles By 2024
Kejriwal government is doing all it can to reduce the pollution levels in Delhi. To reinforce on this, it has cleared and committed to implementing the newly formulated EV policy. In its new strategy, the government has planned to have at least 5 lakh EVs registered to help eliminate air pollution. It means that the capital is ready for commercial and two-wheeler EV cars. Meanwhile, the government is staying clear of the private vehicle market since it has no ability to act as a major player there.
