The Sindh provincial government has announced the upcoming launch of an Electric Vehicle (EV) Pink Taxi Scheme designed exclusively for women. Speaking in the Sindh Assembly, Sindh Information and Transport Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon highlighted the project as part of ongoing efforts to empower female commuters and promote eco-friendly urban mobility. The initiative follows the rollout of the government’s Pink Scooter programme, which has already seen a dramatic rise in women applying for driving licenses—climbing from just 150 to around 25,000 applicants. The new EV pink taxi fleet will operate under the Sindh Mass Transit Authority, offering safe, specialized, and sustainable travel solutions specifically tailored for female passengers across major cities, including Karachi.
