In July 2025, electric scooter campaigns are gaining momentum across educational institutions in India, especially in Haryana. Leading this effort is DIET Karnal, which has rolled out a series of college promotion activities to encourage the use of electric scooters among students and staff. As part of the wider Haryana EV push, these campaigns are designed to raise awareness, reduce carbon emissions, and familiarize young citizens with clean transportation solutions.
Electric two-wheelers have become the symbol of affordable, sustainable mobility in urban and semi-urban India. DIET Karnal’s initiatives are not just about promoting adoption—they aim to integrate electric mobility with education and environmental awareness.
Electric Scooter Campaigns – The DIET Karnal Model
DIET Karnal’s electric scooter campaigns focus on a multi-pronged strategy that includes hands-on demos, awareness seminars, and interactive exhibits on EV technology. These efforts ensure that students get both the information and experience they need to make environmentally conscious commuting choices.
The college promotion plan includes:
-
On-campus EV scooter test drives in partnership with local dealers.
-
Student-led workshops and presentations on scooter maintenance and charging.
-
Street plays and visual posters explaining the impact of traditional fuel-based vehicles.
-
Incentive programs offering subsidies or vouchers for students who switch to electric scooters.
This model has created a lively and informed atmosphere, where scooter campaigns are treated as part of everyday student life.
Why This EV Push in Haryana Matters Now
Haryana’s government is actively encouraging colleges to promote e-mobility as part of its Haryana EV push. With more than 60% of student commuters in districts like Karnal relying on two-wheelers, converting even a fraction to electric can result in substantial carbon reduction.
Key goals of the campaign include:
-
Reducing vehicular pollution on and near college campuses.
-
Encouraging students to embrace cleaner transport options early in life.
-
Introducing practical EV learning to complement environmental studies.
-
Supporting local EV manufacturing and service ecosystems through demand.
The table below shows the tangible outcomes from DIET Karnal’s campaigns this month:
| Initiative | Objective | Outcome (as of July 2025) |
|---|---|---|
| EV Scooter Test Drives | Hands-on learning and interest generation | 400+ students participated |
| Clean Ride Pledge Campaign | Commitment to switch to electric commuting | 120+ students signed up |
| Charging Demo Workshops | Technical training on scooter charging units | 5 workshops conducted |
| College-wide Poster Drive | Spreading awareness visually | 35+ posters designed by students |
| EV Subsidy Registration Support | Help desk to apply for govt EV benefits | 90+ students assisted |
These numbers highlight the enthusiastic reception of the campaign among both students and faculty.
Campus Promotion Meets Policy Awareness
One of the strongest aspects of the college promotion effort is how it blends awareness with government policy information. Students are educated on the financial incentives available under central and state EV subsidy programs. This not only informs purchase decisions but also connects the youth with the larger vision behind the Haryana EV push.
The scooter campaigns include modules explaining:
-
How state EV subsidies reduce upfront scooter costs.
-
The environmental savings from switching to electric.
-
How to choose the right e-scooter based on distance and battery capacity.
-
Charging infrastructure availability on and near campus.
This practical knowledge ensures the promotion doesn’t stop at awareness—it enables action.
Conclusion
DIET Karnal’s dynamic approach to electric scooter campaigns is a shining example of how academic institutions can drive sustainable change. With hands-on events, policy awareness drives, and student involvement, the college promotion strategy has been highly effective. As Haryana continues its progressive EV push, these efforts contribute not only to cleaner air and greener campuses but also to a better-informed, environmentally responsible youth. July 2025 marks a high point in campus-driven EV awareness, setting a benchmark for other institutions to replicate.
