Startup Express: Vindhya Mehrotra Launches Women-Only Ferry Rides For Safer Travel

Empowering Women Through Safe Transportation

Bharat Express presents “Startup Express,” showcasing inspiring initiatives that transform communities. In our inaugural episode, we highlight Vindhya Mehrotra from Prayagraj, who has launched a women-only ferry ride service in Delhi NCR. This innovative initiative prioritizes women’s safety while traveling, making commutes safer and more accessible.

Vindhya’s ferry rides allow women to travel short distances without the usual safety concerns or high costs. Women drivers operate scooters, ensuring a secure and economical transport option. Statistics reveal that eight out of ten women have faced harassment while traveling, often from those sharing their journey. Vindhya’s service aims to eliminate such risks, providing a harassment-free environment.

Promoting Employment and Empowerment

In addition to ensuring safe travel, Vindhya’s initiative also creates job opportunities for women. The ferry ride startup leverages technology to enhance travel and transportation services. With her experience in the travel industry, Vindhya has steered this venture toward promoting women empowerment and entrepreneurship, revolutionizing the Indian travel landscape.
