The project ‘Parivartan’ is a joint effort of the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram, Gurugram Traffic Police, Haryana Transport Department, and Smart E Company.

This initiative will help in phasing out diesel and CNG autos, which will be replaced with economical and environmentally friendly electric autos. Khattar also inaugurated two other projects, including a water supply project of the Gurugram Metropolitan Development and a waste to energy plant for Sonepat and Panipat. Moreover, the Haryana Roadways (HR) has started trial run of its first electric bus, which was inaugurated by Mool Chand Sharma, Minister of Transport, Government of Haryana, from the General Bus stand in Gurugram on Sunday, August 15.
