While private CPOs toil hard to provide reliable charging infrastructure for EVs, the government has given the responsibility of installing the charging infrastructure to the oil major corporations (OMCs). Over the last few years, 10k-plus chargers have been installed by these OMCs. But they forgot that installing and operating the infrastructure are two different things. The chargers are offline, they are not onboarded, and much more.
So we thought, why not hear it from the horse's mouth on how their infrastructure is doing? So we raised RTI, which had the following simple questions
RTI was raised to HPCL and BPCL, and their response was far from ideal.
Our humble request to the Petroleum Minister, Hardeep S Puri, and his office is to appoint a team that conducts an audit, gets most of this charging infrastructure online, and ensures the public money deployed by the government to improve charging infrastructure is not wasted.
