NEW DELHI: Chief minister Arvind Kejriwal will flag off 150 electric buses and inaugurate three new completely ‘electrified’ bus depots on Tuesday.
From Tuesday, commuters will also be able to enjoy free travel for three days in electric buses plying on the roads of the national capital.
“This is a huge day for us. Delhi government has always been pushing its people to shift to greener modes of transport and make the switch to EVs,” transport minister Kailash Gahlot said.
Three depots at Mundela Kalan, Rajghat and Rohini Sector-37 have been equipped for parking and charging of these buses. The government said that 150 more electric buses are expected to be inducted next month.
