The Morning Standard|August 25, 2022

While asserting the AAP government has developed world-class education and healthcare models in Delhi, he noted that it is now time to transform Delhi’s transport sector into a model for the world to reckon with.

Kejriwal flagged off 97 high-tech electric buses from the Rajghat Depot and announced that 8,000 e-buses are to arrive by 2025. Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot said the induction of the new buses was a “befitting reply” to those who were spreading rumours that DTC will shut down.
