Sindh Government Expands Pink Scooty Scheme 2025 to Empower More Women
Freedom on Two Wheels: Sindh’s Pink Scooty Scheme Enters Second Phase
The Sindh government is gearing up to roll out Phase 2 of its popular Pink Scooty Scheme 2025, a program designed to help women move freely, safely, and independently across the province. Announced by Senior Provincial Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, the initiative aims to build on the overwhelming success of the first phase, which launched in September and saw hundreds of women take to the roads with confidence. “This scheme isn’t just about scooters it’s about empowerment,” said Memon. “We want to see women riding with pride in Karachi, Hyderabad, Sukkur, and beyond.”

What Is the Pink Scooty Scheme?
Launched under the Women Empowerment and Safe Mobility Initiative, the Pink Scooty Scheme provides subsidized scooters, training sessions, and affordable installment plans exclusively for women. The goal is simple: make daily travel easier for working women and female students who need reliable, personal transport to reach schools, offices, and workplaces without depending on others. It’s part of Sindh’s broader vision for inclusive, gender-sensitive urban mobility — complementing other government-run transport services like the Pink Bus Service, People’s Bus Service, and the Karachi Breeze BRT.
What’s New in the 2025 Phase?
The second phase of the Pink Scooty Scheme is designed to reach even more women across Sindh, especially those in smaller districts.
Highlights of Phase 2:
- Wider Coverage: The scheme will expand to more urban and semi-urban areas.
- Affordable Scooters: Women can buy subsidized scooters through easy installment plans.
- Training First: Applicants are encouraged to complete mandatory riding and safety courses.
- License Requirement: A valid motorcycle driving license is necessary for eligibility.
- Empowerment Priority: Preference will be given to students and working professionals.
Minister Memon shared that many women who participated in the first phase have already obtained licenses and are now commuting independently — a visible sign of growing confidence on Sindh’s roads.

A Symbol of Empowerment — Not Just Transport
For many women, the Pink Scooty is more than a scooter. It represents freedom, dignity, and independence — a small but powerful step toward gender equality. By giving women the tools and confidence to move on their own terms, the Sindh government hopes to reduce harassment, boost workforce participation, and open new educational and economic opportunities. The initiative also aligns with Pakistan’s green transport goals, with future phases expected to introduce electric scooters to cut emissions and promote sustainability.
The Bigger Picture: Sindh’s Transport Revolution
The Pink Scooty Scheme is part of a wider transformation in Sindh’s public transport landscape. Alongside the People’s Bus Service, Pink Bus, Electric Bus, and Karachi Breeze BRT, it forms a network designed to make commuting safer, cleaner, and more inclusive for everyone — especially women. Together, these projects are creating a transport system that doesn’t just move people, but empowers them.
Why It Matters
- Promotes safe and independent mobility for women.
- Improves access to education and employment.
- Offers financially inclusive payment options.
- Encourages road safety and skill development.
- Reduces reliance on overcrowded public transport.
Voices of Change
“The first phase showed us how much women are ready to take control of their mobility,” said Memon. “Now, we’re making sure every woman who dreams of riding has the opportunity to do so.” From students heading to university to nurses commuting to hospitals, the sight of pink scooters on Sindh’s streets is becoming a symbol of progress and equality.
Conclusion: Empowerment Begins with Mobility
The Pink Scooty Scheme 2025 (Phase 2) is more than a government initiative — it’s a statement of intent. By putting women in the driver’s seat, Sindh is accelerating toward a future where safety, independence, and opportunity are not privileges but rights. Women across Sindh are encouraged to get licensed, apply, and ride — because empowerment truly begins with mobility.
