GreenCell Mobility’s NueGo, a renowned luxury electric bus brand, has launched what it says is the world’s first all-women intercity bus from Kashmere Gate ISBT in Delhi to Agra.
The all-female intercity bus was driven by a crew of professional and experienced female pilots, an in-bus host, and all female passengers. The corporation provided specialised training for the female pilot and also provides facilities tailored to women employees, such as flexible working hours and special leave policies.
NueGo says it places a high priority on creating a safe and comfortable travel environment specifically for women passengers. To achieve this, when a woman traveller books a seat on their buses, the adjacent seat can only be reserved by another woman passenger. This seating arrangement is designed to provide a secure and enjoyable journey for women onboard.
The firm also prioritises safety by outfitting their buses with CCTV surveillance, comfortable seating, and highly qualified coach hosts who are accessible to answer any queries or concerns.
NueGo now operates flights between some of the country’s most popular locations, including Delhi-Chandigarh, Delhi-Dehradun, Delhi-Agra, Delhi-Jaipur, Agra-Jaipur, Indore-Bhopal, Bangalore-Tirupati, and Hyderabad-Vijayawada.
Devndra Chawla, CEO & MD, GreenCell Mobility said, “Our commitment is to ensure a fair and equitable representation of women in our workforce. We take immense pride in promoting women to positions of influence and challenging traditional industry norms that have long been associated with male dominance in certain roles. Our goal is to build India’s first national electric bus mass mobility brand, with a strong emphasis on empowering women.”
The company says its buses go through 25 stringent safety checks including mechanical and electrical inspections. These e-buses can run upto 250km in a single charge, with the air conditioners on, in traffic conditions.
