Karnataka Transport Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday said the state government aims to convert all 35,000 buses into electric vehicles by 2030.
The Minister was responding to a question raised by Congress MLA Tanveer Sait in the legislative assembly, during the question hour.
“There are about 35,000 buses, there is demand to make all buses electric, keeping in mind environment and pollution related concerns. With diesel prices increasing, we are incurring losses. We want all our buses to become electric and we start making profits.. Discussions are on in this regard,” Sriramulu said.
