The initiative undertaken by these prominent companies under the NITI-led E-FAST India and ZEV-EMI platforms aligns perfectly with our vision for sustainable development. By signaling demand for thousands of electric trucks and establishing a national task force, they are setting a strong foundation for the transition towards zero-emission vehicles. I am thrilled to witness such transformative collaboration and endeavors, which will undoubtedly contribute to India's journey as a front-runner in decarbonizing the road freight ecosystem." 印度国家统计局顾问Sudhendu Jyoti Sinha.
