Description: Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari Thursday cautioned electric vehicle manufacturers, asking them to take “advance action” in recalling all defective batches of vehicles immediately and said the government would soon issue quality-centric guidelines for EVs. His comments came in the wake of over a dozen instances of electric scooters erupting into flames across the country, claiming at least four lives so far. Gadkari’s remarks were the first time he publicly acknowledged the mishaps involving EVs in the country. “Several mishaps involving Electric two-wheelers have come to light in (the) last two months. It is most unfortunate that some people have lost their lives and several have been injured in these incidents,” Gadkari tweeted. Last month, the Road Transport Ministry ordered a probe into the incidents and roped in the Centre for Fire Explosive and Environment Safety (CFEES) to investigate the incidents and suggest remedial measures. On Thursday Gadkari said if any EV makers were found ““negligent in their process”, the government will impose a heavy penalty, and order a recall of all of their defective EVs. #Electric_Vehicles #ScootyFire #nitingadkari #gadkari #CFEES #roadtransport #fireinscooty #currentaffairs2022 #currentaffairs2022january #currentaffairs2022february #currentaffairs2022inenglish #currentaffairs2022inhindi #currentaffairs2022march #currentaffairs2022malayalam #currentaffairs2022today #currentaffairs2022pakistan #currentaffairs2022bygauravsir #currentaffairs2022inkannada #currentaffairs2022upscprelims #currentaffairs2022bangladesh #currentaffairs2022ingujarati #currentaffairs2022mpsc #currentaffairs2022and #currentaffairs2022and2021 #currentaffairs2022andanswers #currentaffairs2022andhrapradesh #currentaffairs2022andgeneralknowledge #currentaffairsand2022 #currentaffairs2022januaryandfebruary #currentaffairs2022scienceandtechnology #currentaffairs2022nationalandinternational #currentaffairs2022jammuandkashmir #currentaffairs2021and2022inenglish #currentaffairs2021and2022inhindi #gkandcurrentaffairs2022 #awardandhonourcurrentaffairs2022 #artandculturecurrentaffairs2022#upscias #upsciashindi #upsciasformfillup2022 #upsciassyllabus #upsciasinterview #upsciasstatus #upsciasfirojalam #upsciasprelimsquestionpaper2021 #upsciasmotivationalvideo #upsciassyllabus2022 #upsciasmotivation #upsciasinterviewinhindi #upsciassyllabus2021inhindi #upsciasrank1interview #upsciasformfilling2022lastdate #upsciasand #upsciasandips #upsciasandifssyllabus #upsciasandifs #upsciasandipssyllabus #upsciasandifsdifference #upsciasandies2022 #upsciasandifs2022 #upscandiasinterview #upscandias #upscandiasfullform #upscandiasdifference #upsciasinhindi #upsciasintamil #upsciassalaryandperks
