Punjab launches Pink Rehri Bazaars in two major cities

Pink Rehri Bazaars have been launched in Sargodha and Faisalabad to provide women with opportunities to earn a living and become financially independent. The initiative is aimed at encouraging women to start small businesses, sell their products, and contribute to their household expenses through their own income.

In Sargodha, the Pink Rehri Bazaar has been established at the University Road Model Bazaar in the inner city. Officials said the project was launched in line with Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz’s vision of providing women with respectable employment opportunities.

The initiative aims to help women earn a stable income, improve their financial position and support their families. It will also allow them to meet their children’s needs and manage household expenses through their own earnings.

Faisalabad has also introduced the initiative, with nine pink carts initially set up at Saleemi Chowk on Satiana Road.

The initiative is expected to open up new sources of income for women, promote small-scale businesses and strengthen their contribution to the local economy.
