Kirk leaves us with the power of imagining change and hope 

How close is Delhi to its electric vehicle adoption target

Of every 10 EVs registered, 5.6 are two-wheelers, 3.5 are e-rickshaws and 1 is a car

Last mile chaos

New Delhi struggles with a policy to regulate e-rickshaws

Pedestrian questions

A look at the available technology shows no method is foolproof

Science and technology remain out of focus in budget

No funds to promote scientific research

Silver lining?

Aerosols mitigate the effects of global warming in India during winters

In Short

Shift to public transport should conserve energy

A shift to public transport should avert the energy crisis

Public private prank

No signs of science

India

Cheap thrill

We don't smell the air

On two legs and a prayer

Forum of doctors had sought ban; cited increasing incidence of oral and lung cancers

Moneymakers

Delhi to get interceptor sewers

Why authorize it?
