Delhi Approves Comprehensive EV Policy to Accelerate Electric Mobility by 2030
Delhi's government has approved an ambitious Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy 2.0 with a ₹7,000 crore budget and a total investment of ₹15,000 crore to accelerate electric mobility. The policy introduces phased mandatory compliance for vehicle categories, purchase and scrapping incentives, and targets making 30% of school buses electric by 2030. It also emphasizes expanding charging infrastructure and appoints Delhi Transco Limited as the nodal agency. While subsidies and registration fee waivers support EV adoption, challenges remain in charging availability and battery range, as noted by users.
