The launch of SheDrives aims to safeguard trans individuals and women from severe discrimination and harassment, addressing the high levels of violence they face in Pakistan.
Farooqi noted, "I've taken a small step, and we may expand this service to other cities," emphasizing the potential growth and societal impact of such safe transport.
Highlighting the service's unique approach, Farooqi said, "a unique aspect of this app and ride service is that both drivers and passengers will be women and transgender individuals."
With approximately 30,000 transgender individuals in Lahore alone, the ride-sharing initiative seeks to provide a safe space amidst widespread discrimination faced by the LGBTQ+ community in Pakistan.
