In September 2025, Punjab’s Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif introduced a groundbreaking initiative known as the Pink Scooty Scheme 2025. The program is designed to provide free scooties to women across Punjab, helping them overcome transport challenges and move forward with confidence in their daily lives.
For many women in Pakistan, traveling to schools, universities, workplaces, or markets can be difficult due to limited public transport options and safety concerns. This scheme aims to solve those problems by giving women a safe, reliable, and eco-friendly way to travel independently.
Why the Pink Scooty Scheme Matters
Transportation is one of the biggest hurdles faced by women, especially those from low-income families. With a scooty of their own, women can:
-
Save valuable time spent waiting for buses or vans
-
Reduce daily travel costs
-
Travel safely and without restrictions
-
Pursue education, jobs, or business opportunities with greater ease
By focusing on women’s mobility, the scheme is expected to play a key role in empowering them socially and economically.
Who Can Apply? – Eligibility Criteria
Not every applicant will automatically qualify for the Pink Scooty Scheme. The government has set some requirements to ensure that the most deserving women benefit from this program. Applicants must:
-
Be female residents of Pakistan
-
Be at least 18 years old
-
Hold a valid Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC)
-
Belong to a low-income family
-
Priority is given to students, working women, and widows
This makes sure that the scheme supports women who truly need help with mobility.
