Bengaluru Auto Driver Returns Extra Payment
A person in Bengaluru took an auto rickshaw to go to the doctor.
When he paid the driver using a phone app, there was a problem and he paid twice by mistake.
The driver tried to give the extra money back but couldn't at first.
The person thought the driver would keep the extra money, but later that evening, the driver sent the extra money back.
This shows that not all auto drivers in Bengaluru are bad, and there are still good people around us.
