Delhi Announces Major EV Policy for 2026

Delhi Announces Major EV Policy for 2026

The Chief Minister of Delhi, Rekha Gupta, has announced a new policy for electric vehicles (EVs) that will start next year.

The main goal of this policy is to reduce pollution in Delhi by encouraging more people to use electric cars instead of petrol and diesel cars.

Petrol and diesel cars release tiny particles called PM2.5 and PM10, which are harmful to our health and the environment.

By making it easier and more beneficial to use EVs, the government hopes to make the air cleaner and healthier for everyone in Delhi.

The policy includes benefits like zero road tax for EVs and additional incentives for scrapping old petrol and diesel cars.

This will help more people switch to electric vehicles and reduce the number of polluting cars on the road.
