In a significant initiative to combat pollution in Hyderabad, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has announced plans to incentivize auto drivers to transition from diesel vehicles to electric autos.
This move aims to enhance the city’s air quality, with a specific restriction that diesel autos will be prohibited within the Outer Ring Road (ORR) limits in the future.
Additionally, the chief minister revealed that the Telangana government intends to replace diesel buses operated by TGSRTC with 3,000 electric buses over the next two years.
