Into the roads of Twitter India’s favorite place.

“Reaching your destination in 20 minutes.”

I’m in a rickshaw. This is what my mobile screen is showing from the application I’ve opened.

Lifted my face up. Rolled my eyes here and there.

And when I look at my mobile screen again, it’s showing:

“Reaching your destination in 50 minutes.”

I refreshed the page. Refreshed it again. Yet again.

I sighed. It is true!

Not a long while and a rickshaw meets the traffic. We’re fully crowded with vehicles. Jammed.

With vehicles around, I feel as if the road has become a real life android playstore.

On the left it’s Swiggy. Ahead of us, it’s Dunzo. Right, it’s Zomato. Besides which, it’s blinkit. I’m in Ola auto. One is on bounce. One on yulu. Others which I never heard of before.

Most with their two wheelers, have helmets over their heads. Both, who is driving and one sitting behind.

I can see billboards. Billboards not of commercial. Not of ‘contact us for ad’ ad. But of hirings.

Hiring engineers. Hiring techies. Hiring product managers.

This is Twitter India’s favorite place.

This is Bangalore.
