As part of a broader effort to combat alarming air pollution levels, the Indian government has set its sights on electrifying the nation's capital, New Delhi. In a bid to reduce the city's notorious toxic emissions, the government has announced ambitious plans to introduce electric vehicles (EVs) on a massive scale. With air quality in the city often ranking among the worst globally, the move is seen as a crucial step in protecting the health and well-being of Delhi's residents. The target involves a significant increase in EV adoption, with the city aiming to have a substantial portion of its vehicles electric by the end of the decade.
