Mumbai: An Ola driver is winning hearts on social media and he returned a rider’s forgotten items worth Rs 2.5 lakh. The rider, Sayuj Ravindran details how he and his family were returning from a cousin’s wedding in a cab late at around 3:30 am. During the journey, a flat tyre halted the ride.
The driver, identified as Khateeb Ur Rahman, advised the passengers to book another cab since he would need time to fix the tyre. Ravindran managed to book another cab and was almost home when he got a call from Rahman. He told Ravindran that they had forgotten a bag in the car.
“Meet Mr. KHATEEB UR RAHMAN, who returned my bag (with stuffs worth Rs 2.5 lakhs approx),” Ravindran says on Facebook, adding that Rahman refused to take any money from him in return for the favour. “But I did manage to slip in the money to his jacket pocket forcefully,” he adds.
Ravindran also requested Ola to reward the driver for his kind gesture.
Since being shared September 17, Ravindran’s post has collected over 16,000 reactions and more than 3,900 shares – and still counting.
