Delivery boy rides horse to deliver order in Hyderabad

Hyderabad, Jan 3 (IANS) A delivery boy of Zomato took a horse ride to deliver an order in Hyderabad on Tuesday after petrol stations ran out of fuel due to strike by truckers over new law on hit-and-run accidents.

The video of the young man riding the horse to deliver the order was widely shared on social media.
