Indore (Madhya Pradesh): E-auto rickshaws in Indore will now operate on scheduled routes only. For this, 23 routes have been proposed by the Traffic Department and Regional Transport Office (RTO). The process of finalising these routes and route allocation will be decided soon.

In the meeting, Water Resources Minister Tulsiram Silawat, MP Shankar Lalwani, Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargav, MLA Madhu Verma, Collector Asheesh Singh, Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC) Commissioner Harshika Singh, DCP Traffic Manish Agarwal and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of District Panchayat Siddharth Jain and other officers and public representatives were present.
