Amid its vigorous push to promote electric vehicles in the city, Chandigarh administration has little to show when it comes to public charging infrastructure to make their adoption viable.
To dissuade people from buying vehicles that cause pollution, UT plans to gradually stop registering fuel-run vehicles through its Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy that was rolled out in September 2022 and is applicable for five years.
This year, the administration plans to cease registration of non-electric two-wheelers from the first week of October and even non-electric four-wheelers by December, as the number of such vehicles permitted in 2023, as per the EV policy, is expected to be met by then.
