Govt to announce safety ratings for e-rickshaws

The humble electric rickshaw (e-rick) may be a boon for last-mile connectivity in Delhi, but not really trusted as a safe mode of public transport. The Centre plans to rectify that.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has set up a technical committee to propose standards and a ratings-based safety assessment system for the battery-operated rickshaws. It will be on the lines of Bharat NCAP (New Car Assessment Programme), country's four-wheeler star rating system.
