Under the partnership, WRI India will support CESL in building adaptive business models to help state governments achieve their targets.

Convergence India Providers Ltd (CESL), a subsidiary of state-owned Vitality Effectivity Providers Ltd, has signed a memorandum of understanding with the think-tank World Assets Institute (WRI) to help state governments devise methods for the transition to electrical mobility within the coming years.

The pandemic is most certainly an unprecedented crisis, but another global emergency that necessitates urgent action with each passing year is that of climate change.
