Haryana's Green Mobility Push: New Aggregator License Rules Mandate CNG, EV Fleets
The Haryana Cabinet has approved a new regulatory framework for aggregator licenses, mandating all vehicles in these fleets use CNG, electric, or other cleaner fuels by 2026. The move, aimed at promoting clean mobility, includes stringent guidelines for safety, insurance, and vehicle tracking.
The Haryana Cabinet has taken a transformative step towards clean mobility by approving new rules for granting aggregator licenses. The initiative mandates that all vehicles inducted into aggregator and delivery fleets must run on CNG, electric, or battery-operated power by January 2026, targeting improved air quality in the NCR.
In a significant shift, the new rules stipulate comprehensive guidelines for passenger safety, vehicle tracking, and minimum insurance coverage for drivers and passengers. Aggregators will also need to establish control rooms and call centers for passenger assistance, signaling a robust framework to enhance accountability in the sector.
The Haryana government is considering a full tax exemption on electric vehicles to boost adoption, in line with policies in Chandigarh and Delhi. This comes as part of a broader strategy to transition towards eco-friendly transportation solutions, including the purchase of 500 electric buses for the state.
