💨 Abstract

On New Year's Eve, Zomato and Blinkit achieved a record 75 lakh deliveries, but gig-worker unions protested due to falling earnings and lack of basic rights. Zomato's CEO, Deepinder Goyal, highlighted the inequality in the gig economy. The article argues for a middle path that preserves livelihoods and flexibility while ensuring safety and dignity for gig workers.
