He said that despite the conspiracies of BJP leaders and putting our leaders in jail, But 12% of electric cars are still being purchased in Delhi. Our government is taking a new step in combating pollution.
Speaking on the occasion, former deputy prime minister Manish Sisodia said a major cause of pollution is smoke emitted by vehicles.

One day there will be charging stations all over Delhi.

Effective measures to prevent and control pollution

He said people often think that the Delhi government only does these things, but these charging stations today are also proof that we are taking effective steps to fight pollution.
The Delhi government said it has formulated policies to make Delhi the capital of electric vehicles from 2020. The Delhi government has exempted all electric vehicles from subsidies and road tax. In order for this policy to be implemented and successful, in addition to providing subsidies for electric vehicles, charging stations are also being built.
Delhi has the largest number of electric vehicles in the country
