The provincial government of Balochistan has officially launched the Pink Bus Service to mark the beginning of the new year with a significant step towards women empowerment. Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti announced this vital initiative on social media stating that the primary objective is to provide safe, dignified, and reliable transportation for women and female students within the provincial capital. This service aims to address the long-standing commuting challenges faced by women particularly those pursuing education or working in professional fields who often encounter safety concerns during their daily travel.

By ensuring a secure environment for travel the government intends to improve women’s access to essential healthcare facilities, employment opportunities, and educational institutions. Authorities have confirmed that the service will operate on a permanent basis with concrete plans to gradually expand operations to other districts in future phases. The launch has received a warm welcome from the public as it represents a practical measure to support female mobility and autonomy. This initiative reflects a strong commitment by the leadership to prioritize the welfare and safety of women across the region.
