India's Gig Workers Face Precarious Conditions

India's Gig Workers Face Precarious Conditions

In India, many people work as delivery partners for apps like Zomato and Blinkit.

These workers often face tough conditions.

They can be blocked from working without a good reason, and they don't have the same protections as regular employees.

Some workers earn very little money, and it's hard for them to protest because they can't afford to miss work.

There are also legal cases happening to try to make things better for these workers.

Until the laws change, many gig workers will continue to struggle.
