KARACHI: Pink scooties will soon be distributed among eligible women in Mirpurkhas, Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Memon said on Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chairing a meeting of the Transport and Mass Transit Department, Memon reviewed progress on the distribution of pink scooters, along with ongoing transport projects, new routes and measures to provide modern public transport facilities.<\/p>\n

The meeting also decided to launch a new Peoples Bus Service route from Larkana to Qambar and Shahdadkot on September 18.<\/p>\n

Memon said the new route would facilitate residents of Larkana, Qambar, Shahdadkot and surrounding areas. He added that the Sindh government was taking steps to provide citizens with modern, safe and affordable public transport.<\/p>\n

He directed officials to ensure the new route starts on schedule and that necessary facilities are provided to passengers.<\/p>\n

The meeting also reviewed the Green Line and Orange Line BRT services in Karachi. Memon said Green Line ridership had reached 88,000, while more than 11,000 people travelled on the Orange Line daily.<\/p>\n

Officials also discussed routes for additional double-decker and electric buses, with Memon directing them to complete the route planning process soon.<\/p>\n

Earlier on June 28, Sharjeel Inam Memon announced that the provincial government will launch a Pink Taxi Scheme for women as part of its broader electric vehicle (EV) transport initiative.<\/p>\n

Speaking in the Sindh Assembly, Memon said the government had taken several measures to empower women, adding that the Pink Taxi Scheme would follow the launch of the Pink Scooter programme.<\/p>\n

He said authorities had directed traffic police to take action if men were found riding pink scooters issued under the scheme. \u201cWe have received complaints that some women\u2019s brothers are using the scooters, and necessary instructions have been issued to address the matter,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The minister said the upcoming EV Pink Taxi Scheme would include a fleet of pink taxis dedicated to women, adding that the provincial government would soon share further details of the project.<\/p>\n

Highlighting the government\u2019s transport initiatives, Memon said Sindh was the first province in Pakistan to introduce electric buses. Responding to criticism over the limited number of scooters distributed, he noted that only 150 women held driving licences when the Pink Scooter Scheme was launched.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
