E-buses will ply on main roads, while the e-rickshaw service will be offered for last-mile connectivity on bylanes and streets.
Commuters will need to pay Rs 10 for travelling up to three kilometres in e-rickshaws, the source informed.
These e-vehicles are environment friendly and will shorten the travel time for users, CRUT said.
