'The e-rickshaw issue is in the court. We have submitted our suggestions in the court. We have kept the provisions of the Light Motor Vehicle in our mind for the purpose of insurance in the event of an accident... We will be taking steps on commencing the operations of e-rickshaws after the court gives permission for it,' he told reporters on the sidelines of a workshop on 'Rurban Mission' here.
The high court on 31 July had ordered a ban on plying of e-rickshaws in the national capital, saying they are illegally running on Delhi roads and prima facie a hazard to other traffic as well citizens.
The ban on e-rickshaws in the city is still continuing as the Delhi High Court on 5 August made it clear that it cannot allow them to ply unless there are guidelines to regulate them and asked the Centre to come up with draft regulations on the issue.
