Karachi, Pakistan – Web Desk: The Sindh government has announced plans to expand its free “Pink Scooters” initiative to Hyderabad, following its rollout in Karachi and Sukkur, in a move aimed at empowering women and improving mobility.
Senior Provincial Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said the scheme, which has seen early success in Sukkur, will soon be introduced in Hyderabad to benefit women commuters. Under the initiative, eligible women are being provided free scooters along with driving licenses, helmets, and professional training.
Memon said the government is prioritizing women’s empowerment by launching programs that enhance independence and access to opportunities. He added that such initiatives are part of broader efforts to support women, youth, and working-class communities across the province.
In addition to the scooter scheme, the provincial government is also expanding the Peoples Bus Service network. New routes are expected to be launched soon, including Khairpur to Rohri and Khairpur to Ranipur. In Hyderabad, routes such as Kohsar–Hyder Chowk and Hyderabad to Tando Allahyar are also set to begin operations.
Officials said these projects aim to provide affordable, safe, and efficient public transport while improving connectivity in urban and semi-urban areas.
