Have you heard the news about the pink rickshaws coming to Pune? Yes, you read that right – 10,000 pink rickshaws are set to hit the streets across 17 cities in Maharashtra, all thanks to a collaboration between the Department of Women and Child Development (WCD) and a dedicated committee in Pune led by the District Collector.
The aim of this initiative is not only to provide a new mode of transportation for residents but also to create employment opportunities specifically for women. The WCD Commissioner will be overseeing the project in Pune, making sure that only women are behind the wheel of these pink rickshaws.
Now, here’s the catch – if the demand for these pink rickshaws exceeds the supply, a lottery system will be used to determine who gets to benefit from this scheme. And don’t worry, the Traffic Police and Transport Department will be working together to ensure that only women are operating these special rickshaws.
So, get ready to see these vibrant pink rickshaws zipping around town, providing a safe and convenient way to get from point A to point B, all while empowering women in the process. Let’s support this initiative and help make a positive change in our community!
