Bongaigaon Municipality flagged off 'Pink Auto' at Bongaigaon on Wednesday, January 17. These autos have been launched with the aim to empower women.
They will ply in the streets of Bongaigaon for women passengers and their children and will be driven by women drivers. To drive these pink auto-rickshaws, 13 women have already been trained by the Dispur Motor Driving School. The driving school had arranged a two-month-long special training so that the women drivers can drive the auto-rickshaws with confidence in Bongaigaon town following all the set rules and regulations.
As per reports, ‘pink auto’ initiative has been taken by City Mission Management Unit, Bongaigaon.
