Facing challenges in switching over to electric vehicles, the UT Administration has decided to review the Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy.
Rolled out on September 20 last year, the policy is likely to be reviewed by second week of this month, said a senior officer.
Apart from taking a decision on the continuation of incentives being provided to the buyers of new vehicles, flaws and strength of the policy would be deliberated upon thoroughly and decisions taken accordingly, he said. The policy has completed one year of its implementation and it needs to be reviewed after every year to make Chandigarh a “Model EV City” by achieving zero emission vehicles (ZEV) among all Indian cities by the end of the policy period of five years, he added.
