Experts meet auto drivers to discuss shift to electric autos in Amritsar
In an effort to tackle the deteriorating air quality in Amritsar by encouraging more electric auto rickshaws, a meeting with experts was organised on Friday. The main aim was to make auto-rickshaw drivers aware about the benefits of switching to electric rickshaws and also to address their concerns.
The meeting organised by EcoSikh in collaboration with Clean Air Punjab, a citizen’s initiative, was attended by auto rickshaw drivers, unions, representatives of the RAAHI (Rejuvenation of Auto-rickshaws in Amritsar through Holistic Intervention) project in Amritsar and a panel of experts from the Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW).
