Delhi - The Delhi government is preparing to transition cargo movement from diesel-powered trucks to electric vehicles (EVs) as part of a broader strategy to curb air pollution during the winter months, when the national capital typically experiences a sharp decline in air quality.

The initiative aims to reduce emissions from freight transport, one of the significant contributors to particulate pollution in the city. Authorities plan to encourage the deployment of electric cargo vehicles for last-mile and intra-city freight movement while gradually reducing dependence on diesel trucks.

The proposed shift will be supported . . .
