Article link: Cabinet nod for Rs 14,000 crore green mobility push
Extract from the article:
The recent approval by the Cabinet for a Rs
14,000 crore green mobility push is a significant step towards promoting
electric vehicles in India. Within this initiative, a Rs 10,900-crore incentive
has been sanctioned to boost the adoption of electric mobility.
The scheme entails the installation of 22,100
fast chargers for electric 4-wheelers, 1,800 fast chargers for e-buses, and
1,000 fast chargers for electric buses.
This move aims to encourage the widespread use of
eco-friendly transportation options and reduce carbon emissions significantly.
My Take:
DEAR SHRI GADKARIJI : THIS IS YOUR CHANCE FOR
BIG-BANG REFORM
"In a blog post from September 2021, I
highlighted the importance of limiting incentives to green vehicles as part of
a big-bang reform.
It is fantastic to see the government taking this
step towards promoting electric mobility with substantial incentives for
electric vehicles.
This aligns with my past recommendations to
introduce incentives for buyers of EVs, encourage shared transport, and
implement policies to reduce pollution from land-based transport."
CONGRATULATIONS SHRI KAILASH GEHLOTJI
"Back in 2018, I proposed measures such as
capital subsidies for battery charging stations and the setup of charging
infrastructure across Delhi to promote electric goods carriage.
It is heartening to see a similar approach being
adopted now to facilitate the installation of fast chargers for electric
vehicles.
This move reflects the importance of
public-private partnerships in creating a sustainable transportation
ecosystem."
Call to Action:
To the policymakers and authorities involved in
promoting green mobility, I urge you to continue investing in infrastructure
for electric vehicles, incentivizing their adoption, and prioritizing
sustainable transportation solutions.
Let's work together to build a greener and
cleaner future for generations to come.
With regards,
