X User Criticises Bengaluru Mall's EVs Parking Space, Ather Exec Reacts

X User Criticises Bengaluru Mall's EVs Parking Space, Ather Exec Reacts

The X user wrote that the mall security staff cited some recent fire incidents in a truck transporting EVs as anecdotal evidence for practising "such untouchability".

A Bengaluru-based photographer recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to point out that a popular mall in the city has a separate parking lot for Electric Vehicles (EVs) despite having a huge multi-level parking. The photographer, Nishant Ratnakar, shared a picture showing electric scooters parked in baking sunlight outside Nexus Mall in Koramangala. "Electric Vehicle Parking Zone," a signboard read. In his post, he said that even though the mall had huge parking, the EVs were made to be parked outside in the sun due to "irrational fear psychosis". There is some irrational fear psychosis in #NexusMall#Koramangala in #Bengaluru with regards to Electric Vehicles. While there is a big multi level parking (as seen on left), they make EVs to be parked in baking sunlight outside.EV manufacturers kindly speak to them.#Atherpic.twitter.com/t8SGhtfcoh Thanks @peakbengaluru . We will reach out to them.

"There is some irrational fear psychosis in #NexusMall #Koramangala in #Bengaluru with regards to Electric Vehicles. While there is a big multi level parking (as seen on left), they make EVs to be parked in baking sunlight outside. EV manufacturers kindly speak to them. #Ather," Mr Ratnakar wrote in the caption of his post. 

In the following tweets, Mr Ratnakar wrote that the security staff cited some recent fire incidents in a truck transporting EVs as anecdotal evidence for practising "such untouchability". He even tagged EV maker Ather Energy and its founders Tarun Mehta and Swapnil Jain, urging them to speak to the mall's management to clear misconceptions about electric vehicles. The photographer tagged Ola CEO Bhavish Aggarwal and wrote, "I hope EV industry leaders can talk some sense to these malls in #Bengaluru".
