Finally some action is taken with respect to all the EV fire accident incidents that sadly took some lives too!
The Government today has asked electric two-wheeler manufacturers not to launch new vehicles till instances of fire are investigated. As per reports this was communicated to manufacturers at a meeting today called by MoRTH to discuss the rise in incidents of fire in electric two-wheelers.
A good and proactive step from the Government I would say. Rather than people further losing confidence in EVs it is better to halt for some days and let manufacturers find a solution.
But now the rumored Ather Long range model (if at all it was a reality) will have to wait.
