PLI scheme to give boost to auto components: Minister
Heavy Industries Minister Mahendra Nath Pandey said the introduction of the PLI (production-linked incentive) scheme will give a big boost to the manufacturing of auto components like sunroofs and automatic brakes. He added that the nation is dependent on other countries for components like sunroofs, automatic brakes, pollution warning systems and tyre pressure monitoring systems.
The minister also said that Electric Vehicles (EVs) have been instrumental in bringing down carbon emissions to 13,98,184 kg per day, while 34 crore litres of petrol and diesel have also been saved. Pandey added that the government has also tied up with three OMCs (oil marketing companies) to set up 7,432 charging stations for EVs at petrol pumps on highways for which Rs 800 crore has been sanctioned.
