Blinkit Rider Exposes Harsh Reality to MP Raghav Chadha After Viral Video

  • MP Raghav Chadha met Blinkit delivery partner Himanshu, whose viral video highlighted dire working conditions.
  • Himanshu revealed earning just Rs 763 for 28 deliveries over nearly 15 hours, showcasing extremely low pay.
  • Riders face lost incentives due to customer delays, physical strain from climbing stairs, and declining per-delivery payments.
  • Pressure for ultra-fast deliveries leads to increased accident risks and a complete lack of social security benefits like PF.
  • Chadha previously raised these issues in Parliament, specifically questioning the 10-minute delivery model's safety and fairness.

Why It Matters: Viral video sparks political focus on gig workers' low pay, poor conditions, and lack of social security.
