Maharashtra proposes EV-only fleet for platforms like Swiggy, Blinkit & Zomato

Maharashtra government has proposed that food delivery and e-commerce platforms like Swiggy, Blinkit, Zomato and Zepto would need to keep an EV-only fleet for all bikes plying less than 15 kilometres. The platforms will have to contribute 2% of the fare/ride to a driver welfare fund for pension benefits, accident insurance, EV purchase loans, and education assistance for their children.
