KARACHI: The Sindh government has announced the launch of the **Pink Scooters Program**, under which free electric scooters will be provided to women across the province.
The decision was finalized in a high-level meeting chaired by Senior Provincial Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, attended by Transport Secretary Asad Zaman, Sindh Mass Transit Authority MD Kanwal Bhutto, and other officials.
