The Delhi city government has set out a policy to ban the sale of certain internal combustion (ICE) vehicles by 2028, aiming to reduce air pollution. The move is intended to push residents toward electric alternatives, but the plan has also drawn criticism.
A strong measure like a sales ban accelerates electrification but also breeds backlash. I want to watch this soberly. Delhi's air pollution can't wait, but if charging infrastructure and the cost of replacing bikes aren't ready, ordinary citizens' lives take the hit first. Looking at the data, regulation only actually works when it includes not just a target but the design of the transition too.

Feels rare for a single city to push out a regulation this aggressive.
How severe are Delhi's actual air pollution figures, really?
It's a place that regularly comes up as one of the world's worst for air pollution, so the sense of urgency itself makes sense.
It's vague about which internal-combustion vehicles get banned, but whether motorcycles are properly included is the key question.
How far the EV infrastructure actually catches up could turn this whole plan into pie in the sky.
I get pushing hard on air pollution, but setting a hard deadline all the way to a ban is a pretty forceful policy.
インドでせきばっかりしてたわ。
