10 minutes delivery

The Centre has asked quick commerce platforms such as Blinkit, Zepto and Swiggy to remove claims related to 10-minute deliveries, citing concerns over the safety of delivery partners, according to government sources.

The issue was discussed during a meeting between Union Labour Minister Mansukh Mandaviya and representatives of major food and grocery delivery aggregators. Executives from platforms including Zomato, Swiggy, Blinkit and Zepto were present at the meeting, sources said.

Safety of delivery partners discussed in meeting

Government sources indicated that the minister raised concerns about strict delivery timelines and their potential impact on the safety and well-being of delivery partners. Platforms were advised to prioritise safe working conditions instead of promoting ultra-fast delivery promises.

The discussion focused on delivery expectations, rider pressure and the broader responsibility of aggregators towards their workforce, sources added.

Blinkit revises tagline after government intervention

Following the meeting, Blinkit has revised its marketing tagline. The platform earlier promoted “10,000 plus products delivered in 10 minutes” but has now changed it to “30,000 plus products delivered at your doorstep,” according to sources.

The revision reflects a shift away from highlighting delivery speed as a key promise, in line with the concerns raised during the discussions.

The government is expected to continue engaging with aggregators on labour welfare and safety-related issues, sources said.

AI errors in voter list digitisation causing hardship during SIR, Mamata writes to EC chief

Mamata Banerjee has written to the chief election commissioner alleging that AI-driven digitisation errors in electoral rolls are causing hardship, harassment and distress to genuine voters during the SIR process in West Bengal.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has once again written to Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, alleging that errors arising from AI-driven digitisation of the 2002 electoral rolls are causing widespread hardship to genuine voters during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise in the state.

In her fifth letter since the SIR process began, Banerjee claimed that the use of artificial intelligence tools to digitise older voter lists led to serious inaccuracies in electors’ personal details. According to her, these errors have resulted in large-scale data mismatches, with many genuine voters being wrongly flagged as having “logical discrepancies”.

The chief minister accused the Election Commission of disregarding statutory processes that had been followed over the past two decades. She said voters were now being forced to re-establish their identity despite corrections having been made earlier through quasi-judicial hearings.

Calling the approach arbitrary and illogical, Banerjee alleged that it went against the constitutional spirit by effectively disowning the commission’s own past actions and mechanisms. She further claimed that voters submitting documents during the SIR exercise were not being given proper acknowledgements, terming the procedure “fundamentally flawed”.

Raising concerns over the nature of hearings, Banerjee said the SIR process had become largely mechanical and overly dependent on technical data, lacking sensitivity, human judgment and compassion. She argued that such an approach undermines democratic values and the constitutional framework.

Highlighting the human impact of the exercise, the chief minister claimed that the revision process had already seen 77 deaths, four suicide attempts and 17 cases of hospitalisation. She attributed these incidents to fear, intimidation and excessive workload caused by what she described as an unplanned exercise by the Election Commission.

Banerjee also criticised the treatment of several eminent citizens, alleging that they were subjected to harassment during the process. She further expressed concern over the handling of cases involving women voters, particularly those who had changed their surnames after marriage or shifted to their matrimonial homes.

According to her, women electors were being questioned and summoned to prove their identity, reflecting a lack of social sensitivity and amounting to an insult to women and genuine voters. She questioned whether a constitutional authority should treat half of the electorate in such a manner.

Urging immediate corrective steps, Banerjee called on the Election Commission to address the issues arising from the SIR exercise to end what she described as harassment and agony for both citizens and officials, and to safeguard democratic rights.
