"Nitin Gadkari said that the hydrogen car is the future, Prime Minister Modi has also mentioned this and this is a big step towards becoming a self-reliant India. Petrol diesel causes pollution, but hydrofuel cell cars do not cause pollution," he said.

Further, he explained that "There are three types of hydrogen. It is green hydrogen and its price will be Rs 1.5 per kilometer. Its Japanese name is Mirai."

Earlier this month, the minister launched India’s first hydrogen-based advanced Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle, the Toyota Mirai.

 


"Green Hydrogen - An efficient, ecofriendly and sustainable energy pathway to make India ’Energy Self-reliant’," Gadkari wrote in a tweet.

He had announced in January that he would himself use a hydrogen-powered car.
