The Transport Department has announced plans to replace old vehicles used by the RTA Secretary with new ones. To facilitate this, the department has requested a budget of Rs. 240 million for the purchase of new vehicles.
The Punjab government has expressed its preference for electric vehicles in future purchases, prioritizing environmentally friendly options to combat pollution. This move aligns with the government’s long-term goal of transitioning all vehicles to eco-friendly alternatives in a phased manner, aiming to reduce environmental impact and promote sustainability.
Old vehicles? These vehicles cannot be described as ‘old’. So, another corruption scandal on its way?
