Electric bike in Punjab

In Sahiwal city of Punjab, two motor bike assemblers start working together to manufacture Electric motorcycle in Pakistan.

As the prices of petrol is continuously increasing in the country and the inflation is rising day by day so it has become very difficult for motorbike riders to afford petrol especially who belong to lower or middle class. Now it is a time for Pakistan to shift to electric vehicles from fuel

Many companies have also introduced electric motorbikes in Pakistan in the last some years but they all fail and could not win public attention due to some reasons. The main reason was that they were expensive and no one can buy it.

Usman sheikh, CEO of motor bike company, that they are manufacturing electric bike having friendly budget. Further they said,they are first assemblers of electric bikes in Pakistan and designed them locally. They named bike “Jaguar”.

These bikes are similar as ordinary bikes having same size, shape and design but the only difference is that ordinary bike run with petrol but these bikes are run with electric batteries. Manufacturers not change their engine and body parts as they are already equipped with available technology of Japanese in the market.

Usman Sheikh further said that his company take help from existing normal bikes and locally developing an electric battery system. We have also designed and assembled other devices like controllers, chargers, motors, battery management systems, and battery packs.

The electric motorbike has a speed of 70 km and chargeable time is 5 hours. The current price of this bike is Rs 88,000 but company CEO will try to decrease the price.

Even gasoline Japanese bikes can also use these electric kit. The kit is available on easy installments, Rs. 5500 per month, for normal bikes.

Chaudary Zahid, chairman of MS Group said, gave away the benefits of electric bike. A normal bike that averages 50km the expenses would be near 4000Rs monthly, the electric motorcycle will be only Rs500.

Beside these information, some questions are still in the mind of peoples like how much electricity it will use in one charge? how much path it will cover on one charge? how much time battery can take to charge and the cost of replacement of battery?

PayPal is the quick and safer way to send or receive money, make an online payment or set up a merchant account.

PayPal is a financial services company in US and online money transfer system. The government of Pakistan is likely to invite PayPal in Pakistan and also launching their services in the country.

In August 2019, Chief Executive Officer Yusuf Hussain, in briefing the senate standing committee on information technology and telecommunication requested that Imran Khan and Adviser on Finance should talk with the CEO of PayPal and give invitation to come to Pakistan.

The committee noticed that country is losing large amount of foreign exchange reserves and also hurting Pakistan’s freelance sector due to deficiency of online money transfer system.

Senator Faisal Javed assured the committee that the decision of bringing PayPal to Pakistan would be taken up with the Imran khan and adviser on finance.

Committee meetings that have done before revealed that PayPal is not coming to Pakistan because of no legal backing and money laundering incidents in the country.

According to new report, a parliamentary panel informed that the government would introduce PayPal and other online payment platforms in Pakistan.

Secretary of Ministry of Science and Technology, Nasim Nawaz said, the policy related to PayPal is at the advanced stage and important development is to be expected in the upcoming two weeks.

Senator Mushtaq Ahmed also raised question that why Pakistan has no access to Paypal they further said if country do not have these payment systems so they could not increase its economy. At the time, Nasim nawaz, the ministry of science and technology asked the standing committee to discuss the issues instead of making illegal appointments and promotions.

There are two main agenda item for the committee meeting related to illegal appointments and promotions in many departments of the ministry.

The secretary asked committee to avoid discussions related to these agenda in the meeting as there are relevant forums to take a look on these issues. He also said that there are some rules and regulations to deal with these cases. The senate dismissed his suggestion by saying that there were issues related to illegal appointments and promotions that have been not sought over past 17 years.

Ahmed, who chaired the meeting said, here we are not interested to discuss these problems however illegal activities in the ministry and complaints by the affected people forces us to take such matters.

Rector of Comsats University Dr Raheel Qamar pointed out to the committee that the absence of effective copyright laws was discouraging innovation in the country.

He further said that these successful researches do not give any advantage for the students and also for those who will invest their cost in these ventures. It is simple to get copyright of any product registered in the US as compared to getting it done in Pakistan.
