Punjab E-Bike Scheme: What Students Will Get Along With Their Bikes

Punjab’s Chief Minister E-Bike Scheme provides students with electric bikes, safety equipment and training. The second phase of the scheme includes the distribution of free helmets, safety rods and two days of training on the use of electric bikes. Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif has directed officials to arrange free driving training for female students to ensure safe operation of their vehicles.

The scheme aims to facilitate student commuting, especially for those facing difficulties reaching educational institutions. Electric bikes are available through a subsidized installment plan, with students paying Rs. 3,028 per month, while the government covers the interest and insurance costs. The government has not disclosed the specific schedule for the training sessions. The distribution of the 100,000 electric bikes is set to commence in December 2026.
