 Robbers in Chandigarh go after unprotected electric vehicle charging stations, making off with gadgets estimated at one crore rupees in less than two months.

The robbers in Chandigarh are attacking insecure electric vehicle charging points. Within the past two months, the robbers have destroyed or looted electronic gadgets worth around one crore rupees.

The liable agency, Crest (Chandigarh Renewable Energy and Science & Technology Promotion Society), learned about the robberies only this past weekend, and the next day they informed the cops.

The destruction took place at a minimum of nine charging points in different sectors, for example, the palm gardens, sector sixteen, and 42 sector ponds. Charging weapons and gadget containers are some of the looted items.

The UT special advisor talked about the issue with crest administrators,  emphasising the significance of updated safety measures.

although, electric vehicle charging points are appearing  everywhere in Chandigarh. but, a number of them lack security features and simple safety features, including CCTV cameras. Now, more often than not, police rounds are currently keeping a close watch on these areas.

The robberies draw attention to a weakness in Chandigarh's electric vehicle policies: that you want to promote the use of EVs but are lacking in the necessary facilities for doing it properly. The scheme requires the installation of 177 charging points in different areas of parking to encourage the utilisation of electrically powered automobiles.
