Woman’s denial: Booked on only one app, did a comparative study of prices!
On the other hand, the woman completely denies this allegation of the driver. She says that she has booked the ride on only one app, that too after doing a comparative study of the prices of different apps! The driver is adamant that the woman booked his ride on the Ola app and then cancelled it to take a Rapido ride.
The debate got heated, the woman used abusive language and raised her hand!
After this allegation and counter-allegation, the debate got so heated that the woman not only used abusive language on the driver but also raised her hand on him. She is demanding the other driver to start the car. The woman says, “I did not book two autos. Why are you disturbing me? I just checked the rates on two apps and made one booking. If you have received a call, then it is a problem of the app. Please go and do not disturb me.”
Please DM your contact number and mention place of incident.

Bengaluru Police sought information, debate started on social media!
Bengaluru City Police has also reacted to this incident. Commenting on the video, the police has sought information about the incident spot. At the same time, a debate has started on social media regarding this video. Some people say that it is not wrong for the woman to cancel the ride, but using abusive language and raising hands was not right. Some say that this is a common thing in Bengaluru, because many times drivers are not available or they themselves cancel the ride, due to which riders are forced to book on multiple apps.
