Punjab launches electric bus project, fare starts at Rs20

Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz on Wednesday inaugurated the province’s first electric bus project, describing it as a major step towards a modern and eco-friendly transport system.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony in Lahore, the chief minister said the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had always prioritized development, while previous governments were marred by political turmoil and corruption.

“This is Punjab on the path of innovation,” she remarked, adding that the dream of a green and clean province was now becoming a reality.

The newly launched electrobus service in Lahore will have a starting fare of Rs20, with the maximum fare set at Rs35. The government has also announced free travel for students, senior citizens, and persons with disabilities.
