It is a great step for the state, its public transport and for the women of Karnataka, among others. Free public transport for women has the potential to bring more women into the workforce and ultimately, in our cities. As we take inspiration from similar state policies, we also have to ensure that we take lessons from their challenges and shortcomings. In this context, we put forward a few recommendations to make the scheme of Uchita Prayana more effective, robust and inclusive. Read them in our Letter to the CM of Karnataka.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-india-stateless\/2023\/05\/38e1e6c2-letter-to-ka-cm-uchita-prayana-eng.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Our Recommendations<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-india-stateless\/2023\/05\/f71e7d28-letter-to-ka-cm-uchita-prayana-kan.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u0ca8\u0cae\u0ccd\u0cae \u0cb6\u0cbf\u0cab\u0cbe\u0cb0\u0cb8\u0cc1\u0c97\u0cb3\u0cc1<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<style>\np{\ntext-align:justify;\n}\n<\/style>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the outset, Greenpeace India extends our congratulations to the newly formed Government of Karnataka on announcing the Uchita Prayana Scheme.
