Gurugram Receives First Electric Bus, 25 More Expected in August
Gurugram has received its first electric bus out of 100 planned under the PM e-Bus Sewa scheme, marking the start of the city's delayed transition to electric public transport. The bus will undergo a three-day trial on three routes to assess performance before further buses are inducted. The initial batch of 25 buses is expected to become operational in August. Charging infrastructure is ready at Sector 10 depot, and the buses will be operated and maintained by the vendor at a fixed rate per kilometre.
