Hi friends! Coming to the topic, India is ready for electric vehicles we can say yes! Because of the today competitive world most of people moving from one place to another place for their need of survival, so they choose different types of vehicles to move. Whether they may have their own vehicles or public transportation. Almost all vehicles are run with oil like petrol, diesel. Etc. Due to the increasing usage of oil, there is a drastic change in the climate. Due to this, the ozone layer is depleting. By using electric vehicles we can control pollution.

Of course, some of the problems due to battery arises but we can make sure to avoid the problems by taking some measures. Some of the researchers going on that and it can be implemented.

In my view, we are responsible for the environment and we have to save from pollution.

Thank you.

Hello, all of you.

My name is Ratan Lal Gadhwal.

First of all, I would like to pay attention to the topic of Electric vehicles in India.

To think about EVs is good for India.

India is the second-largest population country in the world so they need of vehicles is very high.

There is a very huge problem to pollution in India so EVs are helping us to reduce air pollution, noise pollution around our environment.

In June 2019 the gov. Of India announced that only EVs will be sold in India from the year 2030.

By using EVs, we can reduce the dependence on other countries for oil import.

But electric vehicle's Price is very high. It is not affordable for many people in India.

And also required a number of charging stations in the near future. So it a big problem for India to build them within some time.

Thanks to all of you.

India will be ready for electric vehicles or not depends on many factors:

IF WE LOOK FOR AN ECOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE WE NEED ELECTRIC VEHICLES.

So, it helps to reduce pollution emissions and at the global and political level, it helps reduce the dependence of fuel on other nations.

But I want to add one more thing to popularize electric vehicles among Indians we have to strengthen ourselves in electric power stations.

And we should do more research on how we improvised the electric battery so it covers more destinations with less battery usage.

And electric companies also work on the security and safety of an electric vehicle because it works as a hindrance after all people are disturbed when they hear the news that an electric vehicle got a fire.

So, if we work on this, India will be ready for an electric vehicle.

Hi, My name is Ritika Agrawal.

The topic given to us for the discussion is "IS INDIA READY FOR EVs".

In my viewpoint, it is a topic of current relevance and It's a big yes that India is ready for electric vehicles.

EV cars include lower running costs, environmental benefits, and reduced dependence on foreign oil.

Some insurance companies offer special EV car insurance policies that provide coverage for battery damage. It also offers add-on covers such as personal accident cover and third-party liability cover.

The government of India has also introduced the income tax section 80EEB to provide tax incentives to electric car buyers. Electric car buyers are entitled to tax exemptions up to 1.5 lakhs on the loan amount.

Our India being an emerging country is adopting an EV car as a primary source of transportation.

Hi everyone.

Myself aryan Madhur the topic is whether India is ready to adopt EVs or not so in my opinion first understand why this EV topic has been discussed so much among people and is a hot topic of discussion because as the climate is changing, and with an increase in the atmospheric pollution ie air pollution due to the burning of fossil fuels it has become important to reduce our dependability on fossil fuels also it is a limited resource so here ev gives a good alternative to reduce the pollution by transportation and automobiles emissions and dependency on fossil fuels to a greater extent, according to one report in us more than 30% air pollution is due to the automobile emissions. In India, it is an emerging technology and gaining a good appreciation among the people. But it has both pros and cons.

Yes, according to me, India is ready for electric vehicles. As electric vehicles are expensive. But they have a very low maintenance cost and they don't want any type of conventional fuels (diesel or petrol). And electricity is a very clean source of energy and if one wants he can put a solar cell on his rooftop and then it will be a one-time investment and he can save a lot of money. But there is a flow with electric vehicles that their performance is very low and we do not have any fuel station like the conventional fuel station. So if the govt of India can do something can do anything on this problem then there is a very bright future of electric vehicles in India. And as the use of electric vehicles can lead to decrease the pollution and will fairly reduce the cost of transportation for the common men.

Good morning everyone!

I am S. Vaishnavi hailing from Hyderabad.

As a developing nation i.e. India needs reform to develop and be competitive country to other countries, in my words, India is not ready for Electric vehicles. If the government is trying to introduce Electric vehicles in India it must be noted that in our country majority of people do not have much knowledge of electric vehicles, lack of electricity charging banks, lack of electricity workshops, and electric vehicles are a bit expensive which below poverty line people cannot afford it. When we speak about rural areas we can see regular power cuts and poor road conditions which doesn't support electric vehicle drive. So, I conclude India needs a decade to clear all the problems and to invite electric vehicles onto the roads.

Thank you.

In my perspective, I really think India could succeed in bringing electric vehicles onto Indian roads, the electric vehicles are the best compared to combustion vehicles and the EV vehicles will not pollute the environment. The main issue here is the sale of combustion vehicles is not at all reducing when the mindset of the people changes only they will buy the EV vehicles until then they will not buy them. I want to mention another point is that the government should tie up with big MNCs and launch EV vehicles in affordable prices and everyone should aware of this also there should be more charging stations.

Points to be noted:

1. Electric vehicles are affordable.
2. More charging stations.
3. And due to the increase in the usage of EV vehicles the generation of electricity should be increased.

Hello everyone,

Friends India must need the electric vehicle according to India's pollution scenario, but this the truth that India is not ready for the EV as parameter or requirement should be.

Because EV require heavy management to run well across the county, and according to other country India has not prepared the future layouts, like service point, charging stations etc.

So friends in this time India only can bear this if EV becomes with tremendously technical changes according to DEMAND-DESIRE & DREAMS.

So conclusion is:.

Concern- Ev SERVICE POINTS, TECHNICIANS, REFILLING STATIONS, REFILLING TIME, POWER, SPEED, EFFECTIVENESS,

Cause- LACK OF GOVT AWARENESS, LACK OF TECHNICAL TERM AS ASPECTIONS.

Correction- NEED MORE RESEARCH, NEED TO PAY ATTENTION BY GOV & AUTOMOTIVE DIVISION.

Hello everyone.

From my point of view, Yes, India is ready to embrace electric vehicles As our government is working on it and promoting EV vehicles in the country.
Yeah, its Expansion comes with more challenges like its charging station and something related to this which will be a bit costly as compared to petrol Diesel vehicles.

We need to increase the charging stations in all cities as also government are providing charging stations to all cities like Pune, Maharastra and some cities are developing but we need to work in every city And especially we need to focus on Rural areas which are a little bit challenging but not difficult. Indian govt. Should promote EV vehicles as much as possible soon India will adopt this culture and will be the top country among all.

That's all. Thanks
