The Himachal Pradesh government is set to roll out Phase IV of the Rajiv Gandhi Swarozgar Start-up Yojana, offering subsidies and operational incentives to unemployed youth to run passenger buses while expanding public transport connectivity and promoting cleaner mobility across the state.
Under the scheme, eligible beneficiaries will receive a 50% subsidy to purchase electric buses and a 30% subsidy for diesel buses to operate services on around 1,000 identified routes across Himachal Pradesh, officials said on Monday.
