Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Wednesday flagged off 97 electric buses from Rajghat depot. “We are phasing out all old polluting buses gradually and replacing them with e-buses. 153 e-buses are already plying on roads, 50 more buses will be added by September and the total count of e-buses will increase to 300,” said the CM, as he flagged off the second batch.
“People have seen world-class education and health models. It’s time to transform Delhi’s transport sector into a model for the world to reckon with,” he added.
He said the AAP government will study the transport model of different countries: “Many countries have very modern transport systems. We will take a page out of their book and develop the most effective and efficient transport model in Delhi.”
