Even as the state government is laying stress on using electric vehicles to reduce pollution and make Himachal Pradesh a green state, two e-vehicles of the Solan Municipal Corporation (MC) are gathering dust. The Directorate of Urban Development had given these vehicles to the MC some years ago. They were used to collect garbage in the city on a trial basis.
The e-vehicles helped in saving MC’s expenditure on fuel and other vehicles for garbage collection. However, now these e-vehicles are lying idle in the parking lot of the MC.
