Delhi Launches Inter-State Electric Bus Service to Sonipat

New Delhi, November 14, 2025: Commuters between Delhi and Sonipat, Haryana, can now travel greener thanks to the launch of a new inter-state electric bus service by the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC). Chief Minister Rekha Gupta officially flagged off the service from the Kashmere Gate bus terminal on Thursday, November 13th.

This initiative marks the second expansion of DTC’s electric bus network beyond Delhi’s borders, following the inauguration of a service to Baraut, Uttar Pradesh, last October.

“These new electric buses are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities,” said Chief Minister Gupta during the launch ceremony. “Passengers can expect safer and more comfortable travel with features like air conditioning, CCTV cameras, panic buttons, and GPS systems. The service will improve connectivity between Delhi and Sonipat, while helping to reduce traffic congestion and combat air pollution.”

The electric buses will operate 12 daily trips, with six departures from each city. Buses will leave Kashmere Gate at 4:45 a.m., 5:15 a.m., 5:45 a.m., 4:45 p.m., 5:15 p.m., and 5:45 p.m. Buses will leave Sonipat at 7:10 a.m., 7:25 a.m., 8:10 a.m., 7:30 p.m., 8:00 p.m., and 8:30 p.m.
