Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on June 27 said Delhi has become the country’s electric vehicle (EV) capital with the highest number of EVs being bought in the city.
“We started promoting EVs to curb pollution and keeping in mind that they are the future. We framed a policy in 2020 for EVs and set a target that, by 2025, one-fourth of all vehicles bought in Delhi will be electric,” Mr. Kejriwal said.
The Delhi EV Policy was launched in August 2020 with the aim of establishing the city as the country’s EV capital and accelerating the pace of EV adoption across vehicle segments, especially in the mass category of two-wheelers, public and shared vehicles and goods carriers. “…I am happy to share that 13% of all the vehicles bought in Delhi are electric ones. Since August 2020, 1.28 lakh electric vehicles have been bought in Delhi,” he further said.
