Haryana government’s big step, e-buses and charging stations will get momentum – keep an eye on every movement of the media world.

Haryana News: The government of CM Nayab Singh Saini is moving rapidly towards making public transport in Haryana modern and environment friendly. The state government is working on a plan to operate electric buses and develop a strong charging network for electric vehicles. In this sequence, the Energy Department has been made the nodal agency, which is preparing an action plan to establish charging stations at various places in the state.

Haryana government under the leadership of CM Nayab Singh Saini has now entered the next phase of shifting public transport to electric mode. Energy and Transport Minister Anil Vij informed in the winter session of the Assembly that the necessary infrastructure for operating electric buses in the state is almost ready. This system will be visible on the ground within the coming three months.

Depot ready to operate at full capacity

The Energy Minister said that the electric bus depots developed in the state are now ready to operate at full capacity. Regular operation of electric buses will be started from these depots within the next three months. The government’s aim is not just to run buses, but to strengthen the entire charging ecosystem, so that the system remains sustainable in the long run.

Plan to develop model at state level

The focus of CM Nayab Singh Saini’s government is not limited to any one city. Minister Anil Vij clarified that the electric bus project is being developed as a model at the state level. This will reduce urban traffic pressure and will also make a concrete contribution to pollution control.

Panipat gets buses, expansion will happen in a phased manner

In response to the question of Panipat BJP MLA Pramod Vij, the Energy Minister said that out of 50 electric buses allotted to the city, 15 buses have arrived. The remaining buses will be made available within the next three months. This phased process is being adopted so that the system of operation, charging and maintenance can be implemented in a systematic manner.

Electric buses will increase in roadways fleet

Haryana Government aims to include more and more electric buses in the roadways fleet in the coming time. Electric buses will not only make public transport more attractive but will also reduce dependence on private vehicles, thereby controlling both traffic and pollution.

Charging station is the biggest challenge

Energy Minister Anil Vij admitted that the biggest challenge in the expansion of electric vehicles is the lack of charging stations. He said that even though electric cars and buses have arrived, the number of charging stations is still not as per the requirement. Charging stations on highways and major routes are essential during long distance travel.

Not just plug point, facilities are also important

The minister suggested the vehicle manufacturing companies that charging stations should not be limited to just plug points. When a vehicle takes one to two hours to charge, facilities like toilets, rest areas, restaurants and refreshments should also be available to the passengers during that time. Just making charging points at petrol pumps will not solve the problem.
