Punjab District receives 87 electric buses from China, marking a new chapter in Pakistanβs eco-friendly mobility plan. The arrival of these buses reflects the provincial governmentβs commitment to modernizing the public transport system while cutting down on air pollution.
According to official reports, the Punjab District receives 87 electric buses from China under a joint initiative between the Punjab government and a leading Chinese manufacturer. The buses will operate on key urban routes, providing affordable and environmentally safe transportation for commuters.
Officials confirmed that this project is part of the governmentβs larger goal to promote clean energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The Punjab District receives 87 electric buses from China to encourage a shift toward zero-emission transport systems across major cities, including Lahore, Faisalabad, and Rawalpindi.
The newly delivered buses are equipped with advanced battery technology, air conditioning, and safety systems designed to meet international standards. They can travel over 250 kilometers on a single charge, significantly reducing fuel costs and carbon emissions.
Punjabβs Transport Minister stated that the electric bus fleet would help improve air quality and make daily travel more efficient. He added that similar projects are being planned for other districts to expand electric mobility throughout the province.
Environmental experts have welcomed the move, calling it a βprogressive and timelyβ step toward combating urban pollution. The shift to electric buses is expected to help Pakistan meet its climate goals and fulfill international environmental commitments.
The buses will undergo final testing and route mapping before officially being launched for public use later this year. Citizens have expressed excitement, saying the initiative will not only improve transport services but also contribute to a cleaner and greener Punjab.
