Ride Safe, Ride Odisha Yatri: Pioneering Safer, Smarter, and Affordable Urban Mobility in Odisha

Bhubaneswar: In a significant leap towards enhancing urban mobility, Odisha Yatri—a state-of-the-art mobility app—is transforming the way people travel across Bhubaneswar and Cuttack. At the heart of its operations is the vision of safe, affordable, and accessible travel for all citizens, and it is quickly gaining popularity as the trusted travel companion for thousands in Odisha.

The journey began last month during the observance of Road Safety Awareness Month, themed “Come Home Safe.” During the launch event, Chief Minister  Mohan Charan Majhi inaugurated Odisha Yatri, emphasizing the government’s unwavering commitment to improving commuter safety and promoting smarter, sustainable mobility options. This move marks a transformative shift in how urban transport functions in the state.

Odisha Yatri stands as a beacon of secure and reliable travel, offering cutting-edge features designed to ensure passenger well-being. The app includes real-time trip tracking, live trip sharing, and a robust emergency assistance system integrated seamlessly with the Odisha Police 112 helpline. In a state-first initiative, drivers undergo comprehensive verification and safety training, creating a trusted network focused on passenger safety.

What truly sets Odisha Yatri apart, however, is its zero-commission model. In stark contrast to conventional ride-hailing services that take a large share of drivers’ earnings, Odisha Yatri ensures that drivers keep 100% of their earnings, enhancing their livelihoods and motivating them to provide exceptional service.

Dr. Krushna Chandra Mahapatra, Minister for Housing and Urban Development, hailed the app’s potential during a recent address, noting, “Odisha Yatri is not just a mobility app; it represents our vision for a Viksit Odisha—creating a smarter, safer, and more inclusive urban transportation ecosystem. With its innovative zero-commission model and safety-first features, it is set to become a game-changer in urban mobility.”

Passengers, too, are reaping the rewards of this innovative solution. The user-friendly interface allows for quick and easy ride bookings, and the live trip-sharing feature offers peace of mind to loved ones waiting at home. Odisha Yatri is not just about reaching a destination—it’s about doing so with trust, transparency, and confidence.

Looking ahead, Odisha Yatri is committed to evolving with the needs of its users. Future updates include AI-driven safety protocols, seamless first and last-mile connectivity, and greater integration with the public transport network—ensuring that the app continues to offer safe, affordable, and accessible transport for all citizens.

As Odisha strides toward becoming a Viksit Odisha, Odisha Yatri is at the forefront of this transformation, leading the charge in redefining urban transportation. With every ride, the app continues to shape a smarter, safer, and more inclusive future, one journey at a time.
