Aiming to make Delhi the Electric Vehicle (EV) capital of the country, the AAP Government on Tuesday announced that as many as 50 new low-floor electric buses are all set to hit the streets of the national Capital.
Talking to The Pioneer, Delhi Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot said that the new buses will ply on nine routes of the Capital and will cover around 3 lakh km per month.
Emphasising on the need for electric buses in the city, Gahlot said that this year the Air Quality Index of the Capital had turned into the ‘severe’ category for only three days. Delhi Government is fully dedicated to making the city pollution free.
