Guwahati Aims for Fully Green Transport in 2 Years

In a notable commitment, the Chief Minister of Assam has declared that Guwahati will transition to a fully green transport system within the next two years. This ambitious decision aligns with broader environmental goals and signifies a proactive approach towards sustainable and eco-friendly urban mobility.

The transition to a green transport system typically involves the adoption of electric vehicles, the improvement of public transportation infrastructure, and the implementation of policies promoting eco-friendly practices. Guwahati's shift towards a fully green transport system reflects a commitment to reducing carbon emissions, mitigating environmental impact, and creating a more sustainable and livable urban environment.

As cities worldwide grapple with the challenges of pollution and climate change, the pledge to establish a fully green transport system in Guwahati stands as a positive initiative. The two-year timeframe suggests a concerted effort to expedite the adoption of green technologies and practices within the city's transportation ecosystem.

The success of this endeavour will not only contribute to a cleaner and healthier environment in Guwahati but also serve as a model for other cities aspiring to embrace sustainable urban transportation solutions. The announcement underscores the importance of proactive measures in addressing environmental concerns and fostering a greener future for urban areas.
