Chandigarh is undertaking steps to adopt e-mobility under the Smart Cities Mission of the Ministry of Urban Development. As the city suffers from severe air pollution, switching to EVs has become critical.The UT has set a few agendas to encourage people to adopt electric vehicles.
“The awareness of and demand for electric vehicles are at an all-time high right now, and there is a favourable environment that is encouraging the use of e-vehicles, including the updated FAME II, state policies, and an increase in fuel prices. Our entry into the Punjab market is a step toward realising our vision of clean, emission-free mobility as the demand for electric vehicles rises. Furthermore, Chandigarh is moving forward with the adoption of electric mobility as soon as possible in order to qualify as a smart city under the Ministry of Urban Development’s Smart Cities Mission.
