Mumbai Housing Societies Resist EV Charging Despite Policy Support

Mumbai Housing Societies Resist EV Charging Despite Policy Support

Imagine you bought an electric car in Mumbai, where the government wants more people to drive electric vehicles.

You would expect to charge it easily, right?

Well, many people are finding it tough because their apartment buildings don't want to install charging stations.

Even though the government offers help, buildings are worried about safety, the cost of new connections, and not having enough space.

Some residents are even taking their housing societies to court to get permission to charge their cars at home.
