The country’s leading carmaker Maruti Suzuki is looking at transporting more vehicles it makes via railways to cut down costs and reduce emissions in line with the government’s push towards clean mobile solutions.
The company, along with joint-venture partners, has invested over Rs 1081 crore to commission the country’s first in-plant railway siding at its manufacturing facility in Gujarat, which was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday. Maruti Suzuki plans to set up similar facilities in Manesar and Kharkhoda (Haryana).
