ISLAMABAD, Jun 3 (APP):Pakistan joins the global community in celebrating World Bicycle Day, a United Nations-recognized event aimed at promoting the benefits of
cycling as a sustainable means of transportation.
This year’s theme, “Promoting health, equity, and sustainability through
cycling,” resonates deeply in Pakistan, where the need for eco-friendly transportation solutions is increasingly important.
In a country where air pollution and traffic congestion are growing concerns,
cycling offers a simple yet effective solution.
“Cycling is not only a healthy mode of transportation, but it also reduces our carbon footprint and contributes to
a cleaner environment,” said Farhan Khan, a
cycling enthusiast from Islamabad.
To mark the occasion,
cycling events and rallies were organized in major cities across Pakistan, including Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad.
These events aim to raise awareness about the benefits of
cycling and promote its adoption as a viable mode of transportation.
The government has also announced plans to develop dedicated
cycling infrastructure in major cities, a move welcomed by
cycling enthusiasts and environmentalists alike.
As Pakistan celebrates World Bicycle Day, the focus is on promoting sustainable transportation options and encouraging citizens to embrace
cycling as a healthy, affordable, and eco-friendly way to get around.
