CNG autos might disappear from Delhi roads soon | Here's why

New Delhi: The common sight of yellow and green Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered autorickshaws could soon be a thing of the past in Delhi, as the city government’s upcoming Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy 2.0 recommends their complete phase-out in favour of electric alternatives, officials said on Monday. According to the draft policy, which is expected to be notified soon, the registration of new CNG-run autorickshaws will be disallowed starting August 15, 2025. Additionally, renewal of permits for existing CNG autos will also be stopped from that date, with all renewed or replacement permits to be issued only for electric autos.
