Zepto Delivery Partner Killed In Bike-Bus Collision In Hyderabad

A 25-year-old delivery partner working for quick-commerce platform Zepto lost his life in a road accident in Hyderabad.

The incident, which occurred on late Monday night near the city's near Mehdipatnam, has sparked a fresh wave of outrage from gig worker unions over the high-pressure environment created by "ultra-fast" delivery promises.

The victim, identified as K Abhishek, a native of



Shaikpet and a final-year BBA student, was working as a delivery boy to support his family.

According to the Mehdipatnam police, Abhishek was heading towards Tolichowki in Hyderabad on his two-wheeler to deliver an order. 

While navigating the busy road, he reportedly lost control, and his bike skidded. A private travel bus following closely behind ran over him, resulting in his death on the spot.
