Message from the President, ASSOCHAM
The shift to Electric Vehicles has caught the imagination of policymakers and industry, but speed bumps inpolicy and corporate landscape remain.The year 2017 will be remembered as a significant one for defining India’s mobility architecture.
From bigticket announcements on the marque Ahmedabad-Mumbai high-speed rail project to Hyperloop, India hasseized its moment in the sun to announce big plans for finding next generation transportation solutions.But nothing has caught the imagination of the industry and policy makers quite like the government’s ambitiousplans for a mass scale shift to electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030 so that all vehicles on Indian roads by then -personal and commercial – will be powered by electricity.
While the transformative push for electric vehicleshas become a cause célèbre for India and the world, it presents challenges along with opportunities.To understand the perspective better, ASSOCHAM India’s leading Apex Chamber for Commerce & Industry,is organizing the International Conference on Electric Vehicles, with the Theme Future Road Map for India.I do look forward to a meaningful discussion on the future road map for the Electric Vehicles in India,thank the ASSOCHAM Team and our NRI Consulting & Solutions India Pvt. Ltd., for this much neededBackground Paper andconvey my best wishes for the success of this Conference.
With warm regards,
Sandeep Jajodia
President, ASSOCHAM
