Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Convert Old buses into Night Shelters for Poor

Business Standard


Extract from the Article:

 

The article discusses the urgent need for government and semi-government bodies to scrap around 13,000 15-year-old vehicles by the end of January.

 

These vehicles are deemed obsolete and need to be replaced to reduce pollution and enhance overall road safety.

 

The initiative aims to modernize the vehicle fleet and promote the adoption of newer, more environmentally friendly models. This directive comes amidst a global push towards sustainable transportation practices and aligns with efforts to combat climate change and reduce emissions.

 

My Take:

Scrapping Old Vehicles: Swiss Challenge Solution

 

The relevance of my previous blog on the challenges of scrapping old vehicles in India is starkly significant today.

 

The difficulties highlighted in setting up scrapping facilities and the need for governmental support were prescient.

 

The current situation showcases how crucial it is to have a robust infrastructure in place for the efficient disposal of old vehicles. My past insights resonate with the current predicament and underscore the necessity of proactive measures to address environmental concerns effectively.

 

Old Vehicle Scrapping? A Solution

 

In light of the recent government mandate to scrap outdated vehicles, the content of my earlier blog gains renewed relevance.

The emphasis on incentivizing vehicle owners to voluntarily surrender their old vehicles for newer, cleaner options aligns with the current policy objectives.

 

Encouraging a smoother transition to newer vehicles through discounts was a suggestion I made earlier, indicating foresight into the potential strategies that could be adopted.

 

The current call for scrapping echoes the necessity of such progressive measures to revamp the transportation sector.

 

Call to Action:

 

To the concerned government bodies mentioned in the article, I urge swift action in implementing the vehicle scrappage directive.

 

It is vital to ensure a seamless transition for vehicle owners by providing clear guidelines and support mechanisms for scrapping old vehicles.

 

Embracing sustainable practices in transportation is not just a regulatory requirement but a collective responsibility towards a greener future.

 

Let's collaborate and drive this initiative forward for a cleaner and more efficient automotive landscape.
