An Instagram post shared by delivery agent Nihir_Rider (@handicapzomatorider) has sparked outrage on social media following a video that depicts his experience as a Zomato delivery partner with a physical disability. The clip shows the agent attempting to deliver an order to a customer's second-floor apartment, despite informing the customer of his inability to climb stairs due to the absence of a lift.

The customer reportedly questioned the necessity of the delivery, as the order consisted of a small packet of Maggi for Rs 50. Regardless, the delivery agent proceeded with the attempt, carefully climbing the stairs while carrying the food. However, he discovered that the order had been cancelled upon reaching the customer's doorstep.

The video concludes with the agent displaying a screenshot of the cancelled order. The post has garnered over 26.1 million views on Instagram, with netizens expressing their reactions and opinions. Many users commended the delivery agent for his determination and empathy in fulfilling his professional responsibilities despite his physical challenges, while others were disappointed by what they perceived as a lack of consideration from the customer.

Some also questioned the role of the person filming the video in helping the agent carry the order upstairs.
