In a remarkable sign of social progress, men in South Punjab are increasingly found encouraging women to run electric bikes, marking a powerful shift in traditional mindsets.
\nAsghar Majeed, principal of a private school in Multan, shared his experience, saying, \u201cMy daughter goes to university on her own bike. It gives me peace of mind knowing she is safe and doesn\u2019t rely on anyone.\u201d
\nSana, a graduate from Bahauddin Zakariya University and now a schoolteacher, uses a two-wheeler daily. \u201cI started during my university days,\u201d she said. \u201cI feel completely comfortable now. I owe this confidence to my family as they never held me back.\u201d
\nThe shift is not just within homes, but visible on streets of Multan, Bahawalpur, and Rahim Yar Khan, where women on electric bikes are becoming an increasingly common and welcomed sight.
\nThe new trend is helping women overcome transport hurdles that once kept them from education and employment.
\nMomina, a visiting lecturer, calls her electric bike a blessing. \u201cIt saves time,\u201d she said. \u201cI even go to the market with my mother to buy household items. It\u2019s become a part of my daily life.\u201d
\nThe community response has also been welcoming. Citizens like Salman, Asim, and Amjid praised the trend, calling it a smart and safe solution for women.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s a change for the better,\u201d Salman noted. \u201cIt means progress, not just for women, but for society as a whole.\u201d
\nThe electric bikes provide an affordable and eco-friendly option especially for students and working women.
\nAnd now, with family support, the wheels of change are turning faster.
\nThe social trend in South Punjab is not just about mobility but it\u2019s about trust, equality, and hope.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
