Karnataka should address charging woes to become a hub of EV adoption

This article I wrote appeared in the Deccan Herald Panorama Page . The article mainly looks at the following: 

1) Private /Home charging ( This is a big challenge in a city like Bangalore). The whole process is quite painful. A single window system must be created ( Like New Delhi)

2) Need to create awareness for charging/safety guidelines. The incident where a father and daughter died while charging their EV scooter overnight should be fully avoided through regular audit ( just like how BPCL/HPCL do home audit of gas connection)

3) Back-up power along highway stations is important.

4) Monopoly of Discoms must end. We need competition just like Mumbai or Delhi.
