New Delhi is the location associated with the DURGA scheme, which was approved by the Delhi Cabinet on September 23, 2026. The scheme stands for Driving Upliftment and Rozgar for Women/Transgender Green E-Auto and aims to promote self-employment and safer, cleaner public transport. In its first phase, 1,300 pink electric autos will be allocated, including 1,170 for women and 130 for transgender persons. Applicants must meet specified age, residency, driving licence and other eligibility requirements. Each e-auto will have a mandatory three-year lock-in period, during which it cannot be sold or transferred.
