PM Modi masterstroke on ban of 500 and 1000 rupee notes shook the entire country on Tuesday night. Amidst an ocean of posts and memes on social networking sites, there was one heartfelt note that regained trust in humanity.
While the entire nation was fussing about the issue, Viplav Arora had the best ride of his life. He booked an Ola from his home to Delhi railway station, he was taken aback when an Ola cab driver gave him a discount of few bucks in the time of an emergency and quoted the PM.
Read his experience in his own words:
Booked an Ola from home to railway station today. Unfortunately I had all 500 notes in my wallet at that time and I was totally aware of scrapping of Rs. 500 & Rs. 1000 currency, so decided to pay via Ola money.
But somehow my bill for ride was little over the amount I had in ola money and rest of amount I was supposed to pay to driver in cash.
No ATM’s were working and for sure nobody would give you change against 500 note.
Reply of driver at that time not only earns respect for himself but also I am writing this post because of that.He replied-
” Sir baaki k paise rehne dijiye , do paise kam kama lenge ,thodi si takleef hogi or vo to sab ko ho rhi hai, ab sarkaar ke faisley ka samaan krte hue , desh ki tarakki me ye hamara yogdaan hi samjh lenge. Aap befikr hokar apni train lijiye.”Salute to that driver #vipinkumar and he proved the PM Modi quote in which he said – Common man of India always ready to face hardship in country’s interest.
