However, Dainik Bhaskar does not confirm the location and claims of this video.

People tagged comedian Kunal Kamra No reaction from the company has been revealed yet on the matter. At the same time, users on social media are blaming Ola for its poor service, while some are calling it fake and saying that the bill document should have been shown. This could also be an attempt to tarnish the company’s image. Some users also linked this incident to corruption.

This video has gone viral a few days after the incident when comedian Kunal Kamra openly criticized Ola Electric and its CEO Bhavish Aggarwal over poor service. Kamra posted a picture of several Ola electric scooters, which were parked together for repairs.

Is this what people deserve: Kamra Kunal Kamra wrote on X with a picture of scooters waiting for repair, ‘Do Indian consumers have a voice? Is this what they deserve? 2-Wheeler is the lifeline of many daily wage labourers.

Tagging Union Minister Nitin Gadkari in this post, Kamra asked, ‘Will Indians use EVs like this?’ Kamra also said that those who have any problem with Ola Electric, should write their story below tagging everyone.

Aggarwal said – paid tweet, unsuccessful career Commenting on Kamra’s post, Bhavish Aggarwal said, ‘Since you care so much, come and help us! I will give you more money than this ‘paid tweet’ of yours or your failed career. Or stay quiet and let us focus on fixing real customers’ problems. Bhavish further wrote, ‘We are rapidly expanding the service network and will soon eliminate long queues.’
