Currently there are 1,300 electric buses (on Delhi roads). On January 23, 500 more buses will be flagged off, taking the total number to 1,800, said Gahlot.
The Delhi Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot said 500 electric buses will be flagged off in the national capital on 23 January, taking the number of buses on the roads to 1,800, PTI reported.
While travelling in a Delhi Transport Corporation bus, the minister urged people to prioritise the use of public transport, PTI noted.
