Actor Ronit Roy took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a post after he ‘almost killed’ one of the riders of the online food ordering and delivery platform Swiggy.
@Swiggy I almost killed one of your riders. They definitely need instructions on riding.Riding those small electric mopeds doesn’t mean that they ride on the wrong side of the road onto oncoming traffic. But then, Do you even care for their lives or is it just business as usual?
