This incentive-based policy will encourage large scale adoption of electric vehicles, and bring us closer to fulfilling our dream of making Delhi the EV capital of India.

He is taking various steps to reduce the pollution levels in Delhi such as Green Delhi app, creation of a war room to monitor steps on a real-time basis, processing liquid solution for farm fields to prevent stubble burning, implementing hotspot-specific action plans would be a part of the campaign.

This campaign will continue throughout the winters when pollution reaches peaks and forces Delhi to go for a public health emergency every year. The government will take several initiatives such as a 24×7 war room, pollution hotspots and the repair of potholes.

The policy aims to increase the number of electric vehicles on city roads in the coming years by providing charging infrastructure and incentives to EV buyers. The policy aims to register 5 lakh electric vehicles in the city by 2024.

The gazette says, “the said draft will be taken into consideration after the expiry of a period of three days from the date on which the copies of this notification as published in the Gazette of Delhi are made available to the public. Objections or suggestions should be addressed to Secretary-cum-Commissioner (Transport), Government of National Capital of Delhi, Transport Department.”
