Devndra Chawla, CEO and MD of GreenCell Mobility, delivered the welcome address, emphasising the need for green mass mobility solutions in India stating, “NueGo's ambitious E-K2K journey will see us travel over 4,000 Kms from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, demonstrating the resilience of electric buses across diverse terrains in India. This expedition is more than just a record-breaking feat; it symbolises India's rich cultural heritage. By passing through 200+ cities and towns, the journey will inspire transition to EV buses. Engaging in various impactful activities, the E-K2K bus truly embodies the spirit of "the E-bus that does good" while highlighting India's Commitment to innovation and green technology."

As the buses continue their journey, they aim to raise awareness about the need for cleaner transportation solutions, inspiring communities across the country to embrace sustainable travel. The E-K2K bus will be making a positive impact throughout its journey by engaging in various meaningful activities, such as student workshops, tree plantation, clean-up initiatives, and safety-themed Nukkad Natak in cities like Jaipur, Hyderabad, Bhopal and Bangalore. Doing such impactful events along the way—truly embodies the spirit of "the E-bus that does good."
