News Desk: Chief Minister Balochistan Mir Sarfraz Bugti has announced free travel on green and pink buses across the province for one month, offering relief to citizens following the recent surge in petrol prices.

The initiative aims to ease the financial burden on the public while encouraging the use of public transport amid ongoing austerity measures. The decision comes as fuel costs continue to rise, significantly impacting daily commuters and low-income groups.

According to officials, the free service will be available on both green and pink bus routes, benefiting thousands of passengers, including women who rely on dedicated transport facilities.

The provincial government has urged citizens to take advantage of the initiative and shift towards public transportation to reduce fuel consumption and urban congestion.
