The minister was speaking at the Electric Vehicle Expo for Secretariat employees at Vidhan Soudha premises in Bengaluru. The event aims to raise awareness and promote EV usage among government staff.
«The rising petrol prices and urban air pollution make electric vehicles a key solution. Our state has been a pioneer in EV adoption and was the first in the country to introduce an EV policy in 2017,» George said.
He stated that when the policy was introduced in 2017, Karnataka recorded an annual registration of 11,000 electric vehicles.
«Currently, the registration stands at an estimated 1.50 lakh electric vehicles, which is a clear testament to our EV policy,» added George.
