Many automakers are focusing on electric vehicles as it is anticipated that it is going to rule the automarket. Delhi which is one of the most polluted cities of India is all set to welcome the EVs.   Delhi Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot recently outlined plans of having EV charging stations after every three kilometres in the city. 

Speaking at a virtual event organized by the World Bank and WRI Ross Center, Gahlot higlighted his government's efforts towards making EVs more accessible. He said, "We want to setup charging stations within every three km. We are also giving purchase incentives to any person who wants to setup a private charging station. We have subsidized and incentivized the purchase of electric vehicles so that more and more people get motivated."

Recently, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal launched the 'Switch Delhi' campaign to promote the use of EVs and said his government will only hire battery-powered vehicles for six weeks for all official purposes. He has also been asking resident welfare associations, market associations, malls and cinema halls to set up charging points for convenient powering of battery-operated vehicles.
