Jaipur, Jan 29 : PETA India representatives, in an in-person meeting with Rajasthan Chief secretary Niranjan Arya, submitted a design of electric royal chariot for replacing elephants at the Amer Fort.
The unique design, which PETA India and Desmania Design suggested to be named “Maharaja”, resembles a royal chariot. The vehicle could ferry four tourists per trip and would be suitable for the hilly terrain like that at Amer Fort.
It needs to be mentioned here that the committee constituted by the Project Elephant Division of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change recently recommended to phase out elephant rides at Amer Fort by replacing them with electric vehicle rides.
