Convert Your Petrol Vehicle into an Electric Vehicle
The decision comes as per the latest revision to the Transport Management Act. As per the Act’s sub-section 1 of Section 31, vehicle owners can’t, without approval, alter a vehicle’s color, shape, engine, or chassis. Thus, the MoPIT has established new arrangements under which anyone who wishes to convert petrol or a diesel vehicle into an electric or eco-friendly one will be allowed to do so.
Sub-section 2 states that if manipulation into the existing rule is sought, an authorized officer will investigate and verify the conditions. If it is indeed logical and appropriate, consent will be granted.
If you want to convert your petrol vehicle into an electric vehicle or any other environment-friendly ride, you will be granted approval.
