Singh held a meeting with battery manufacturers here to discuss the creation of an ecosystem for incentivising battery manufacturing in India, an official statement said. In the meeting, Singh exhorted the industry to set up battery manufacturing units in India as the future demand was going to be very high with the government promoting e-vehicles in a big way. Tenders for procuring e- vehicles have already been issued and we have started procuring the vehicles. This is going to increase , he said.
