Telangana, Bijliride Launch Women's EV Jobs Initiative

▤ Summary

Bijliride is partnering with Telangana government agencies to launch Stree Ride, a program that connects women to EV-based ride-hailing and delivery work. The initiative provides electric vehicles, training, background verification, and digital onboarding through a platform that integrates participants into apps such as Ola, Uber, Rapido, and delivery services. The company says the pilot has reduced administrative time and improved participant productivity by about 20%. The program aims to create safer, flexible employment while expanding the use of electric vehicles in commercial mobility. If it scales successfully, other states could copy the model for gender-inclusive transport and logistics employment.
