Auto manufacturers will soon have to install air conditioners inside driver cabins of trucks, according to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari.
Gadkari also noted India has a shortage of drivers, resulting in truckers operating 14-16 hours a day.
The minister did not mention the deadline as to when people can expect those trucks fitted with AC cabins will be rolled out. Some reports suggest that the rollout will be from 2025.
Further, in his address, the Union Minister spoke about the reduction in logistic costs and reiterated logistics costs in India need to be brought down in order to improve export competitiveness, adding good quality roads and trucks is key to it.
