At this time, monsoon rains are continuing everywhere in the country. Many areas are very much affected, including Gujarat. The city of Ahmedabad is submerged here. In such a situation, people are avoiding leaving their homes to keep themselves safe. If seen, nowadays people can order whatever they want online sitting at home. But it is a matter of thought that how difficult this delivery is in the event of a flood. Despite all this, there are some people who are forced to move forward fighting the difficulties of life due to their responsibilities even in storms. Recently, the video of one such person went viral, seeing which people are getting emotional.
Actually this person is a delivery man of food delivery company Zomato. In the video, he is going to deliver food to someone in Ahmedabad while walking in water above his knees. Cars and buses around him are also seen submerged to some extent, but he is moving towards his destination.
X user Vikunj Shah shared a 16 second clip of this which has gone viral on social media. In this, he also asked Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal to reward the delivery man for his commitment and determination. Zomato also responded to this and asked Vikunj to share the order ID to identify the delivery agent so that he can be given a suitable reward.
The video was also shared by another user Neetu Khandelwal, who wrote- ‘I request Dipender Goyal to find this hardworking delivery man and definitely reward him.’ People are not tired of praising the delivery agent. However, on this video post, many people criticized the customer who ordered food in such conditions. Many people also said that Zomato should stop delivering orders in waterlogged areas as it puts the lives of delivery personnel at risk.
Let us tell you that Saurashtra-Kutch region of Gujarat has been receiving heavy rainfall since last week. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has said that the deep depression in the region is likely to turn into a cyclonic storm and hit the coast. Rain-related incidents here have claimed the lives of 32 people in four days till Thursday. More than 32,000 people have been relocated from flood-affected areas in the state and about 1,200 people have been rescued.
