In an inspiring move to ease transportation for young people, the Punjab government, under the leadership of Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif, has officially rolled out Phase 2 of the CM Punjab Bike Scheme 2025. This ambitious program is crafted to provide affordable bikes—both petrol and electric—to students and working youth across the province. And the best part? It’s all available through easy, interest-free monthly installments.
For many students, daily commuting is a real struggle—especially for those living in remote towns and villages. Long distances, unreliable public transport, and financial stress often keep them from attending classes or reaching their jobs on time. This scheme is designed to eliminate that barrier by giving youth direct access to personal, eco-friendly transport—without burdening their pockets.
What Makes This Scheme a Game-Changer?
Unlike typical government programs that take months to show results, this scheme is already making headlines for its practical benefits and clear eligibility. Here’s why it stands out:
-
Monthly Installments as Low as Rs. 5,000: Students no longer need to save for years to buy a bike. The bikes are offered on interest-free financing—no hidden charges, no extra fees.
-
Special Focus on Female Students: Half the bikes under this scheme are reserved for female students. This includes scooties, which are generally easier and safer for girls to drive. It’s a big win for women’s empowerment and access to education.
-
Green Transportation Push: With electric bikes included in the package, Punjab is also taking steps toward cleaner air and greener cities.
-
Zakat-Based Support: Students from extremely poor families may qualify for completely free electric bikes under a Zakat-based system. That’s a powerful inclusion that reflects social responsibility and equity.
Who Can Apply and What’s Needed?
This scheme isn’t open to everyone—it’s specifically targeted at genuine, deserving students and working youth. If you’re aged 18 to 35, currently studying at a recognized institution in Punjab, and don’t already own a vehicle, you’re probably eligible.
Here’s a quick checklist of what you’ll need to apply:
-
CNIC or B-Form
-
Student ID card
-
Proof of enrollment (fee slip or admission letter)
-
Punjab domicile certificate
-
Learner’s permit or driving license
-
Passport-size photo
This ensures only serious, eligible candidates benefit from the opportunity.

Why This Matters for Punjab’s Future
Beyond giving students a ride to college, this scheme represents something much bigger: freedom, opportunity, and progress. When students can move easily, they attend more classes, reach internships, work part-time jobs, and explore their potential. And when young women feel safe and independent with their own vehicles, the entire community benefits.
This is more than a bike—it’s a pathway to a better life.
