Scrapping Old Vehicles :
Swiss Challenge Solution
----------------------
Hindustan Times ( 25 July ) carries following news :
Highlights :
* On
Monday, a report
released by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE)
, said that
about 20 million vehicles had accumulated in
India by 2015 that are
obsolete
and require scrapping.
* Since the
scheme will require a huge network of automobile scrapping facilities the
PMO also wants the ministry
to start such facilities on a pilot basis for “gaining
experience,” the second official added.
The third
official, who is from the road ministry and also did not want to be named,
said the
ministry is going through the directions given by the PMO.
* As per the
proposal, until the 2020 deadline kicks, owners of such vehicles can
voluntarily scrap their vehicles and receive a discount on the purchase of new ones
* It was
following a meeting at the PMO in March that the road ministry had been
directed
to put up a proposal before the cabinet in three months.
* In its
communication, the PMO also asked the ministry also “explore” the
establishment of scrapping facilities on the so-called “ Swiss challenge mode ” given
that
such facilities would
require vast tracts of land that may not be readily available
in
many states.
* Under this
method, the government would receive an unsolicited proposal from a
person / company that is put online. A second person can
then submit a counter
proposal; if the original proposer fails to match the terms of the
counter-proposal, the
project will be awarded to the latter.
Dear Shri Nripendra Misraji [
Principal Secretary to PM ]
Over the past 2 years
, I have sent following emails , offering some suggestions in this matter of
scrapping of old vehicles .
Since these were also
published ONLINE ( on www.hemenparekh.in
), I urge leading Indian Industrialists to submit their “ SWISS
CHALLENGE MODE “ proposals , based on my emails
