Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has initiated the Action Tracker series to track sectoral pathways for clean air and low-carbon action.  

 

As part of the action Tracker series on the cities of Rajasthan, a spotlight has been placed on the status of vehicle fleet electrification in Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan and one of the non-attainment cities.

 

Against the backdrop of the state EV policy and the provisions of the clean air plans, CSE has conducted an assessment of the status of EV adoption and policy implementation in Rajasthan with a special focus on Jaipur. This has been done based on literature review, VAHAN portal data analysis, field investigation and stakeholder surveys in the city of Jaipur.

 

The overall goal is to push for a stronger interface between the state EV policy and clean air programme to accelerate zero tailpipe emissions transition.
