Delhi EV Policy Under Scanner: India Today Finds Defunct Charging Stations Across City

Delhi's new EV Policy promises subsidies, tax benefits and over 30,000 charging points to accelerate the shift to electric mobility. But an India Today ground report has found several public charging stations lying defunct at key locations across the capital, including Central Secretariat, Talkatora Stadium, Rajghat Bus Depot and Kashmere Gate. EV users say many chargers have remained out of service for months, raising concerns over the city's charging infrastructure. Delhi Transport Minister Dr. Pankaj Singh has responded to the findings. As the capital pushes for cleaner transport, the report raises a crucial question—can Delhi achieve its EV goals without reliable charging infrastructure?
