The government is going to provide a subsidy of up to Rs 36,000 to women on purchasing electric two-wheelers under its proposed Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy 2.0. This benefit will be available to the first 10,000 women who have a driving license.
Rekha Gupta Delhi government has planned to give a big gift to those who buy electric bikes. According to information received from sources, under EV Policy 2.0, if someone buys an electric two-wheeler in the name of a woman, then she will be given a subsidy of up to Rs 36,000. That is, if you buy an electric bike in the name of your sister, mother or wife, then you will also be able to get such a big discount. However, initially 10,000 women will get the benefit of this.
The government is preparing this new policy to promote e-vehicles in Delhi. According to sources, the first 10,000 women will get the benefit of a subsidy of up to Rs 36,000 on purchasing an electric two-wheeler, provided they have a valid driving license. The scheme will be implemented on a first-come, first-served basis. This means that whoever comes first will be given the benefit first. According to initial information, this subsidy will be given at the rate of Rs 12,000 per kilowatt-hour based on the battery capacity (kilowatt-hour), which will be limited to a maximum of Rs 36,000.
Ever since the BJP government came to power in Delhi, its focus has been on women. Whether it is free cylinders or giving Rs 25,000 to pregnant women, giving houses or giving Rs 2500 per month to every woman, BJP is betting only on women. Now this new scheme can prove to be a panacea for BJP.
The government wants women to also use electric vehicles and contribute to a pollution-free Delhi. This subsidy will be an incentive for them. The scheme is proposed to be in force till March 31, 2030, which will include electric two-wheelers, three-wheelers and commercial vehicles. It will be applicable only to vehicles that cost around Rs 4.5 lakh. However, it is important to remember that women who benefit under this scheme will be ineligible for other subsidy schemes.
