Mumbai: The e-vehicle revolution is not just a change in the transport sector, but a way to create a clean, healthy and economically viable Mumbai. Creating an eco-friendly Mumbai is a collective responsibility and this change will be successful with the combined efforts of everyone, said Transport Minister Pratap Sarnaik. The program “Wheels of Change - Understanding EV Adoption for Mumbai Auto and Taxi Drivers” was held. Transport Minister Sarnaik was speaking as the chief guest at this program.
Transport Commissioner Vivek Bhimanwar, Secretary of Maharashtra Pollution Control Board Dr. Avinash Dhakne, CEO of World Resources Institute India Madhav Pai and other dignitaries were present at this program. Transport Minister Pratap Sarnaik said that the state government has set a goal to make Maharashtra, including Mumbai, a green transport hub under the electric vehicle policy. The active participation of auto and taxi drivers will be very important in this initiative.
Electric vehicles are not only eco-friendly means of transport but also a means of economic empowerment for drivers in the public transport system. Freedom from fluctuations in fuel prices and providing opportunities for more income are important features of e-vehicles, said Sarnaik. It is the responsibility of all of us to create a clean, healthy and economically prosperous Mumbai in the future, said Transport Minister Sarnaik.
