Government Vehicles Could Run Three Times Cheaper, Report

Government vehicles running at a cost of Rs. 300 per kilometer can be run at the cost of Rs. 100 - Revealed in the Sectoral Oversight Committee on Energy and Transport.

Government vehicles which are running at a cost of Rs. 300 per kilometer can be run at a cost of 100, revealed in the Sectoral Oversight Committee on Energy and Transport recently.

The above was revealed according to the data of a research paper prepared by the Department of Manpower and Employment on "Public Resource Management" which was presented at the Sectoral Oversight Committee on Energy and Transport.

Here, the relevant research paper indicated that according to the statistics of the year 2022, government institutions own about 82,000 vehicles, of which about 76,000 are in running condition and around 5500 vehicles are not in running condition.

According to this research paper, it was identified that the cost of driving one kilometer of a vehicle in running condition is approximately between Rs. 300 and Rs.500.

The research shows that it was identified that if these vehicles required by government institutions are hired from the private sector on a rent or lease basis, it is possible to run a kilometer with Rs. 100 or less amount.

Thus, if this process is followed by removing the state-owned vehicles atomically, it was revealed that about 20 billion rupees government expenditure can be saved.
