Introduction
The CM Punjab Free Pink Scooty Scheme 2025 is a special program for women, launched by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif in September 2025. It is part of the CM Punjab Bike Scheme, managed by the Transport Department. The goal is to give thousands of free pink electric scooters (scooties) to female students, working women, and low-income groups in Punjab. Each scooty comes with a helmet, free training, and official registration.
The scheme is linked with the larger CM e-Bikes Scheme, which has a 25–40% quota for women. In Phase I, 7,324 pink scooties are being given out (from 20,000 total bikes). The budget is Rs. 1 billion. Registrations closed on 30 September 2025, and first deliveries will start in November 2025.
