Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal recently announced that the food delivery company has set the Guinness World Record for ¡°largest first aid lesson at a single venue.¡±?
Amid congratulatory messages, the post saw a comment by comedian Kunal Kamra questioning Goyal about the average income and working hours of the company¡¯s delivery partners.?
Kamra wrote, ¡°Can you declare the no of delivery partners you have with their average income & working hours over the last 3 months? No you can¡¯t But you can tell kgs of biryani ordered in one day. You¡¯re such a hack bro¡."
This was in response to a series of photos shared by showing delivery partners participating in the first aid class. The Zomato boss wrote, ¡°Yesterday in Mumbai, we broke the Guinness World Records for the largest first aid lesson at a single venue, together with 4,300 delivery partners. Over 30,000 @zomato delivery partners are now professionally trained to provide medical aid and help during critical roadside emergencies. Salute and a big thank you to these Emergency Heroes of India."
Numerous social media users applauded Zomato for its accomplishment, while others voiced calls for health insurance coverage for delivery partners.
One user wrote, ¡°I see so many Zomato & Swiggy riders come to the casualty at night with road traffic accidents (caused mostly by drunk drivers), Zomato must consider providing arm & knee guards to riders at a minimal price or as an incentive, it could save their lives.¡±
A second commented, "Incredible achievement! Hats off to @zomato and the delivery partners for setting a new standard in community safety. These heroes are truly redefining roadside assistance."
