With the aim of making Chandigarh the country’s first carbon-free city by 2030, the Administration has started emphasising on promoting clean fuel vehicles.

This was stated by UT Adviser Dharam Pal, who joined as the chief guest at the valedictory ceremony of the ninth four-day Ins and Outs show organised by the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry here today.
