Netizens are in anguish after seeing food delivery agent eating from plastic packet on roadside

Food delivery agent

When we use food delivery applications, we expect our order to get delivered within a certain period of time. In case it gets delayed, some of us become fussy and hangry, but we hardly think about the person who is delivering the food.

The food delivery agents often rush after taking the order from the restaurants as they are liable to bring the food in its actual state. As consumers, we would also not appreciate it if we get cold food and warm drinks.

But what about the so-called work culture of those agents, who often don't get enough time to eat their meals on time? A similar thing was seen in a viral and heartbreaking video shared by an Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer Awanish Sharan.

In the video, it appearsas if the delivery executive was taking a quick break to eat food directly from the plastic packet on the roadside. All details are not available so far, more information is awaited.

The officer shared the video on Twitter with a caption in Hindi language which loosely translated to English as - "Take care of them too in this season."

The video was shared on June 20 and has been viewed over 312K times.
