Amitabh Kant believes India is in the midst of a huge disruption.
Speaking on the future of e-mobility adoption in India, Kant spoke about India's need to cut down on import of oil.
"India's biggest strength is in terms of its sun, we need to store the renewable electricity we produce," Kant said in an interview with Entrepreneur India.
In India, 72 per cent vehicles are two-wheelers & 5-6 per cent are three-wheelers. Keeping this in mind, the Indian government's strategy is to push electric two-wheelers & three-wheelers.
