AMC misses deadline for BRTS subsidy
|
12.6.2018 |
DNA: Top News |
| The AMC has missed a deadline to claim subsidy from the central government on purchase of electric buses. The civic body had announced that it would buy electric buses for the Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) to reduce air pollution in the city. The AMC-run Ahmedabad Janmarg Limited (AJL), which looks after the functioning of BRTS, even issued a letter of intent to buy 50 electric buses.
The central government provides a subsidy of Rs 1 crore on each electric bus which costs Rs 1.44 crore. However, the civic body didn’t issue a tender within the stipulated time limit and hence, won’t get the subsidy, alleged leader of opposition Dinesh Sharma.
Sharma learnt about the development during a meeting of AJL board members held on Monday.

Delhi High Court puts an indefinite hurdle to govt’s plan to procure 2,000 buses
|
11.6.2018 |
DNA: India |
| The Delhi government's plan to add 2,000 new buses to its crippled stage carrier fleet in the national Capital is set to be delayed indefinitely, said government sources. The matter which has been held up because of a petition in the Delhi High Court now requires the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government to prepare a timeline regarding by when it can make its entire fleet of buses low-floor.
"The plan to procure buses has been stuck indefinitely, as the transport department, will have to buy time to prepare the timeline. It is also not possible to do the same any time soon because of a number of factors including bidders and maintenance costs," said sources.
The delay will not only add to the pressure on the crumbling public transport infrastructure but will also spoil the plans of reducing private vehicles on road to reduce air pollution levels in the city.
"The issue is being discussed with the Delhi transport minister Kailash Gahlot," said a senior Delhi government official.
