New Delhi: Delhi government’s transport department is planning a series of Electric Vehicle (EV) festivals or EV Utsav. The festival will be organised to promote the sale and usage of EVs in the national capital.
The three events have been planned for the year, which will take place once the proposal for the same is approved. The series of EV festivals will also bring stakeholders, which will include buyers, sellers, battery providers, and swapping agencies — for all segments of two, three, and four-wheelers.
Last month, the Niti Aayog also released a list of 75 best practices in the social sector from across the country which included the Delhi EV policy, the report further added.
Citing an official, the report said, “We have been taking several measures to increase the uptake of EVs in Delhi across all segments. This EV utsav is an effort to make the customers more comfortable with the EV ecosystem and bring all original equipment manufacturers (OEM) together on one platform.”
The draft proposal for EV Utsav has now been forwarded to Delhi’s Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot for final approval. The festival will initially be organised for two-wheelers, the report stated.
