New Delhi: The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has suggested introducing a new style of number plate for vehicles that run on hydrogen fuel. The move is aimed at making these vehicles easy to identify as India encourages cleaner transport options, reports PTI.
As per the draft notification released on Friday, each type of hydrogen vehicle will have a different plate design based on its use.
For commercial vehicles, the number plate will be green on the top half and blue on the bottom, with yellow letters and numbers, according to the news report.
For private vehicles, the plate will also be green and blue, but the letters and numbers will be in white. For rental cabs, the number plate will have a black top half and blue bottom half, with yellow figures.
This proposal is part of the government’s wider efforts to promote environmentally friendly fuels and support the shift towards sustainable transportation.
