Expressing anguish over several mishaps involving electric two-wheelers in recent times, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari on Thursday stated the government will issue necessary orders on defaulting companies after receiving the report of an expert panel that has been constituted to enquire into these incidents.
In a series of tweets, Gadkari said: “We will soon issue quality-centric guidelines for Electric Vehicles. If any company is found negligent in their processes, a heavy penalty will be imposed and a recall of all defective vehicles will be ordered”.
Asserting that the Narendra Modi government was committed to ensuring the safety of all citizens, Gadkari said: “companies may take advance action to recall all defective batches of vehicles immediately”.
