ITP steps to woman empowerment, student facilitation: Kainat

Cto Kainat Reviews Faizabad Traffic Orders Smooth Flow During Rush Hours

Under the visionary leadership of Chief Traffic Officer (CTO) Islamabad, Kainat Azhar Khan, Islamabad Traffic Police has introduced a series of public-friendly initiatives aimed at empowering women, facilitating students, promoting road safety, and providing modern, accessible traffic services to citizens. Demonstrating a strong commitment to public service, women empowerment, and citizen convenience, Islamabad Traffic Police has taken several significant steps to ensure that women and young students can access essential services in a safe, respectful, and hassle-free environment.

To facilitate female citizens, dedicated Pink Counters have been established at all Police Khidmat Markaz and Traffic Headquarters. Staffed exclusively by female personnel, these counters provide convenient access to driving licence and character certificate services. Women are being facilitated in a safe, dignified, and comfortable environment, with their privacy and self-respect given the highest priority. All cases are being processed on a priority basis.

In a major relief for students, Islamabad Traffic Police announced the waiver of the mandatory 42-day learner’s permit waiting period for college and university students seeking motorcycle driving licences. Under this special initiative, eligible students can obtain their motorcycle driving licences on the same day, without waiting for the completion of the 42-day period. This facility is available from November 1 to November 30, 2026, at Islamabad Traffic Police Headquarters, subject to completion of the required licensing formalities.

The initiative aims to encourage young people to obtain valid driving licences while promoting responsible riding and compliance with traffic laws.

In another landmark initiative, Islamabad Traffic Police launched a free scooty training programme for women at the Uraan Driving School to promote independent, confident, and safe mobility. Initially scheduled from November 1 to 15, 2026, the programme received an overwhelming response from women.
