A Bengaluru executive hauled his EV scooty all the way up to his 5th floor kitchen to charge it after losing a fight with the Residents Association to install a charging point in his society's parking. The kitchen ‘jugaad’ made quite a buzz, first on LinkedIn and then in the Electrical Vehicle world.
This was on a day when Ola was supposed to roll out its EV scooter. However, the bookings of Ola scooty have been delayed by a week due to a website glitch.
Vish Ganti, vice-president (product management & GM) of AutoGrid India, wrote about what happened on his LinkedIn account and attached an actual picture of the scooty in the kitchen.
“My apartment community in the so-called EV capital of India (Bengaluru) wouldn’t let me install an EV charging point after trying to educate them and fighting an uphill battle for four months. So I decided to load up my scooter in the elevator and bring it up to my unit on the fifth floor to charge it in the kitchen, as a sign of protest and to create awareness of this ground reality,” his post read.
