Sindh Govt Announces Pink EV Taxi for Women
Sindh Govt Announces Pink EV Taxi for Women. The Sindh government has taken another big step in modernizing public transport by announcing the launch of Pakistan’s first government-run taxi service. The project, which will introduce Electric Vehicles (EV) taxis, is set to roll out by December 2025. What makes this initiative even more special is the launch of Pink EV Taxis, designed exclusively for women passengers to ensure safe, affordable, and comfortable travel.
Pakistan’s First Government Taxi Service
The announcement was made during a high-level meeting chaired by Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, with senior officials, including Secretary Transport Asad Zamin and Sindh Mass Transit Authority MD Kanwal Nizam Bhutto, in attendance.
The minister confirmed that the Sindh government is introducing a government-backed taxi service in the country’s history. By December 2025, electric taxis are expected to hit the roads of Karachi, providing citizens with a new, eco-friendly commuting option.
Pink EV Taxis – Specially for Women
In the initial phase, the government will launch Pink EV Taxis dedicated to women. These taxis will ensure that female passengers, including students and working women, can travel safely and comfortably.
This move builds on the success of earlier women-focused projects introduced by the Sindh government, such as:
8171 Tracking Portal October 2025 – Verify BISP 13500 Installment with CNIC
- The Pink Bus Service
- The Pink Scooty Program for women and female students
Both projects were widely welcomed, and the Pink EV Taxi is expected to see the same positive response.
Eco-Friendly and Modern Travel Facilities
Sindh has already been a pioneer in green transport by launching Pakistan’s first electric buses. Now, with EV taxis, the province is pushing further toward sustainable mobility.
According to Sharjeel Memon, Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has taken a personal interest in this project, with a vision of providing modern, eco-friendly, and affordable transport facilities to citizens.
The EV taxis will:
- Reduce air pollution in Karachi
- Cut down fuel costs
- Provide affordable and safe commuting for all, especially women
Infrastructure and Charging Stations
One of the biggest challenges in running EV taxis is the charging infrastructure. To address this, the Sindh government has already started work on building EV charging stations and preparing the necessary facilities to ensure smooth operations.
This preparation will ensure the service remains sustainable and reliable in the long term, providing confidence to both passengers and potential investors.
Benefits of the Pink EV Taxi Project
The launch of the Pink EV Taxi service will bring multiple benefits for women and the city as a whole:
- Safe travel option for women passengers
- Affordable fares to support daily commuting needs
- Eco-friendly transport to reduce pollution
- Modern facilities like comfortable seating and better service standards
- A step toward solving Karachi’s ongoing transport challenges
Investment Opportunities in Karachi’s Transport Sector
Sharjeel Inam Memon also highlighted the huge potential for investment in Karachi’s growing transport sector. He assured international investors that the Sindh government will provide full support for partnerships in sustainable mobility projects, including electric vehicles and related infrastructure.
Conclusion
The launch of the Pink EV Taxi for women is not just a transport project; it’s a milestone in empowering women, promoting eco-friendly mobility, and modernizing Pakistan’s transport system.
With Pakistan’s first government taxi service going electric, Sindh is setting an example for the rest of the country. This initiative promises to make travel in Karachi safer, greener, and more inclusive, while also opening doors for international investment in the transport sector.
