New Delhi (Staff Correspondent): India’s quick-commerce services have once again surprised foreign citizens with their fast delivery speed. This time the case is of a Polish woman, who is living in India and when she ordered watermelon from the Blinkit app in just 5 minutes, she was stunned. This woman, known as Victoria Wanders on Instagram, shared this experience on social media, which went viral in no time. In her post, she praised India’s fast delivery system and apps and said, “India lives in the future.”
Watermelon delivery in 5 minutes, price only ₹42
Victoria shared a video clip in which she is eating watermelon sitting on her bed. These services are available to some extent in Poland too, but the speed and availability of the Indian apps surprised her.
“Can order anything day or night”
In the caption, she wrote, “I love Indian apps, day or night, I can order fruits, cakes, Uno or really anything I need.” She said that this service is not only fast but also economical. Victoria praised the Blinkit app, saying, “It saves a lot of time, the prices are very reasonable, and I swear, no matter where you are, it will be at your door in 5 minutes!”
Great response on social media
As soon as this post went viral, Indian users also shared their experiences on social media. One user wrote, “In India, whether it is 12 am or 3 am, you can get anything delivered in less than 30 minutes. This is the India we live in.” Another jokingly said, “It’s not just fruits, you can also order toilet paper if needed and it will arrive before you poop.”
Questions also raised about labor exploitation
While many people praised this service, some users also pointed out the exploitation of delivery personnel working in the gig economy. One user commented, “India exploits its workers due to lack of employment.” While another wrote, “India is not living in the future, it is based on the exploitation of its huge and desperate low-wage working class.”
American woman has also been impressed
A few days ago, an American woman living in Bangalore also praised India’s quick delivery services. She said, “In India, you can order a whole cake in less than 20 minutes even at 11 pm.”
He told that in the metros of India, even the smallest things like ice cream, coffee, cold drinks, cucumbers, scissors are available within minutes.
India’s quick-commerce services are becoming a center of attraction not only for the countrymen but also for foreign citizens. However, there is a need for serious discussion on the condition of the delivery partners working behind this fast service and the issue of labor exploitation. But it is certain that India is constantly setting new records in the field of technology and logistics.
