Telangana to Come up with New EV Policy Soon: CM Revanth

Hyderabad: Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has disclosed that the State government will come up with a new EV (Electronic Vehicles) policy soon.

Speaking at a programme after handing over appointment orders to the newly recruited Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspectors (AMVIs) at the Khairatabad RTA office here on Monday, the Chief Minister said the State government was taking various measures to keep the city of Hyderabad free from pollution and asked the officials of Transport department to extend their cooperation for the endeavor of the government.

On the occasion, he appealed to the newly recruited AMVIs to speak to the students and unemployed in their respective villages and inspire them to prepare for competitive exams.

"Build confidence among the youth about the importance of education, which only give a recognition and respect, and also repose faith in the government," Revanth Reddy advised the AMVIs.

He also asked the newly recruited staff to take stringent measures to curb the smuggling of drugs and Ganja in the border areas, saying that it is not a job but an emotion.

Indirectly criticising BRS leaders, the Chief Minister said that during Diwali festivities, some people consumed drugs in the guise of celebrating house warming ceremony.

"Leader means a vanguard. He should be a role model for all. He does not mean to celebrate festivals with drugs and liquor bottles," he pointed out.

The Chief Minister further appealed to the youth to social boycott such leaders, advising that youth should think whether to consider Srikantachari , who sacrificed his life during Telangana movement, or leaders celebrating parties with drugs and liquor as role models.
