We are delighted to announce a proud and transformative moment for the Chamber of Business and Entrepreneur (India) Council (CBEIC) and its flagship women empowerment initiative Mahila Saarthi.

CBEIC has officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Sahakar Taxi Cooperative Limited, the parent cooperative behind Bharat Taxi, marking the beginning of a powerful collaboration aimed at reshaping the future of women-led mobility in India.

🚘 A Partnership with Purpose

This MoU establishes a long-term strategic partnership where:

CBEIC (Mahila Saarthi) will:

  • Mobilize and train women across Delhi NCR and multiple states
  • Conduct onboarding, safety training, self-defense, and digital readiness classes
  • Facilitate vehicle procurement through government & CSR support
  • Operate dedicated helplines, monitoring systems, and facilitation centers
  • Ensure compliance with Nirbhaya Fund, EV policy frameworks, and government standards

Sahakar Taxi Cooperative Limited (Bharat Taxi) will:

  • Provide a dedicated digital mobility platform for women drivers
  • Support ride integration, passenger safety, and automated earnings payout
  • Facilitate operational support, technical onboarding, and app-based tools
  • Partner with CBEIC to build a nationwide women-driver ecosystem

Together, this collaboration aims to build India’s largest women-driven transport workforce, ensuring safety, dignity, and livelihood opportunities for thousands of women.

🌟 Why This MoU Matters

This partnership is an important milestone for:

🔹 Women’s Safety

Providing secure, women-driven mobility options at metro hubs, workplaces, universities, and tourist locations.

🔹 Women’s Employment & Entrepreneurship

Creating sustainable income opportunities through electric vehicles (E-Scooty, E-Auto L5, and E-Car).

🔹 Sustainable & Clean Mobility

Supporting India’s EV mission through women-led operations.

🔹 Cooperative Development

Encouraging women to participate in the cooperative economy and digital mobility sector.

🎉 A Vision for Nationwide Impact

  • Phase II will expand the program across Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Karnataka.
  • The goal is to train and onboard 1 lakh women drivers in 3 years.

This initiative stands as a powerful example of Nari Shakti, aligned with the vision of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for women-led development and Atmanirbhar Bharat.

The Mahila Saarthi Initiative, under the Chamber of Business and Entrepreneur (India) Council (CBEIC), continues its mission to empower women through sustainable and safe mobility.

Today, an important training and interaction session was successfully conducted by Sahakar Taxi Cooperative Limited at the National Cooperative Development Corporation (NCDC) headquarters. The session was led by the Bharat Taxi Team, focusing on the onboarding of 50 female drivers who will soon join the Bharat Taxi platform as Mahila Saarthi Partners.
