Jammu & Kashmir Women Celebrate Free Bus Travel Scheme
kashmir travel

Women across Jammu and Kashmir are rejoicing over a groundbreaking announcement from Chief Minister Omar Abdullah: free bus travel for women on all government-owned public transport, including the region’s eco-friendly e-buses. Unveiled as part of the state budget on March 7, this scheme is slated to take effect on April 1, 2025, and is already generating waves of excitement and optimism.

The initiative promises to transform daily life for women in both urban and rural areas of Jammu and Kashmir. Local residents see it as more than just a cost-saving measure—it’s a step toward greater independence and opportunity. “This will make it so much easier for us to travel for work, school, or even to visit family,” shared a young woman from Srinagar. Another resident, a mother of two, added, “It’s a relief to know I won’t have to worry about fares. I can focus on getting my daughters to their classes.”

Beyond financial benefits, the scheme is expected to boost women’s participation in the workforce and education, areas where mobility has historically been a barrier. With government-operated buses covering extensive routes across the union territory, including newly introduced electric buses, the policy aligns with broader goals of sustainability and inclusivity. Officials estimate that thousands of women will benefit daily once the program launches, potentially setting a precedent for similar initiatives elsewhere in India.

Community leaders and activists have also praised the move, calling it a vital recognition of women’s contributions to society. “Empowering women with free transport is empowering families and communities,” said a local advocate for women’s rights. As April approaches, anticipation is building, with many eager to see how this policy will reshape the social and economic landscape of Jammu and Kashmir.
