Mumbai; May 2023: NueGo, India’s leading premium electric bus brand by GreenCell Mobility, has flagged off the world’s first ever all-women intercity bus from Kashmere Gate ISBT, Delhi to Agra. The all-women intercity bus was operated by a team of skilled and experienced woman pilot, in-bus host, and had all women passengers.
For the world’s first “all women intercity bus” ride, the female pilot underwent specialized training.
