CM Punjab Bike Scheme 2025-26: Affordable Mobility for 30,000 Students & Youth
The CM Punjab Bike Scheme 2025-26, initiated by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif in collaboration with the Bank of Punjab (BoP), aims to provide subsidized transportation to students and young professionals in Punjab. Phase 2 (ongoing) offers 30,000 bikes (petrol and electric) with a Rs. 50,000 subsidy each, on 0% interest installments over 2 years. Targeted at daily commuters facing high fuel costs and traffic, it promotes eco-friendly options with a 50% female quota.
Since launch in early 2025, over 20,000 bikes have been distributed, reducing student dropout due to transport barriers by 15% in urban areas. Eligible applicants from HEC-recognized public/private universities and graduate colleges can choose from approved models like Honda CD 70 or electric variants.
November 29, 2025 Update: Phase 2 extended to Sep 30, 2025 due to demand; monthly balloting; distribution from Nov 1. Total quota: 30,000 (15,000 petrol, 15,000 e-bikes).
