India plans to impose heavy penalties and mandate recalls if electric vehicle (EV) companies are found to be negligent, as part of new "quality-centric" rules, the country's transport minister said, after a spate of fires involving e-scooters. In the meantime, companies may take advance action to recall all defective batches of vehicles immediately, Nitin Gadkari said on Twitter on Thursday, adding that the safety of every commuter is a priority for the government.
