Former J&K chief minister Omar Abdullah also tweeted about the teacher’s achievement and wrote, “#BackToTheFuture [of] #DeLorean style doors solar car. Looks amazing.”
Bilal wanted to make a luxury car for the differently-abled too, but he could not do so due to financial difficulties. After this he thought of making this car that runs on solar energy. Bilal has studied engineering and has worked hard for 11 years in making this car. Surely this car is also suited to the climate of Kashmir. Being electric, it also does not make noise, so it will not cause noise pollution either.
After watching several videos, Ahmed started modifications and added new features to the car. “Initially, I planned to make a car for the disabled, but due to some financial issues, I could not go ahead with the project,” he said. The report says that Bilal has spent Rs 16 lakh in making this car. According to the information, this car can also be operated with remote control.
