Delhi Panchayat Association Protests Seizure of Old Trains and Seeks Subsidy for Electric Vehicles
The Delhi Panchayat Association has raised concerns regarding the government’s plan to seize old trains. They are asking the Delhi government to extend the deadline for this seizure. The association also requests a 30 percent subsidy on electric vehicles, especially for rural areas, to support farmers and help control pollution.
The leaders of the association argue that old vehicles serve as a crucial source of livelihood for villagers. They believe that banning these vehicles could significantly impact their daily lives. Than Singh Yadav, the chief of the Panchayat Sangh, highlighted that many rural families depend on these older vehicles for their income.
The association’s demands aim not just to protect the livelihoods of rural communities but also to contribute to the government’s efforts in pollution control. They point out that there are various sources of pollution that also require attention. Yadav emphasized the need to address issues caused by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), particularly concerning the classification of residential areas under the Master Plan, which has worsened traffic conditions in those neighborhoods.
The Panchayat Association hopes that their requests will be taken seriously and lead to positive changes for the rural population in Delhi.
