Tata Power, a key player in electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, has joined hands with the Ayodhya Development Authority (ADA) to make Ayodhya EV-friendly by installing EV charging points in and around the city. This partnership aims to expedite EV adoption and encourage sustainable transportation solutions. These EV charging points were unveiled at the Collectorate Office MLCP Parking in Ayodhya, in the presence of Mr. Gaurav Dayal, Commissioner of Ayodhya, and Mr. Ashwini Pandey, Vice Chairman of ADA. Representatives from Tata Power, including Mr. Deepesh Nanda, CEO & MD of Tata Power Renewable Energy Limited, Mr. Virendra Goyal, Head of Business Development (EV), and Mr. Ramkrishna Singh, Head of Business Operations (EV), also attended the event.
