Hindustan TimesThe transport department is relaunching pink autos -- autos driven exclusively by women -- in Noida, said a department official on Wednesday, adding that 380 such autos will hit the Noida roads within the next two months. The transport department has already issued approval letters to 154 applicants with the requirement that they purchase their autos and get them registered within a month, said the official. According to PK Singh, regional transport officer, Ghaziabad, under the state’s “Mission Shakti” project, which aims to empower women, the Uttar Pradesh government has decided to relaunch pink autos. From 2021 to 2023, the transport department had sought applications to issue pink auto permits but they were unable to find suitable candidates.
