Twitter Divided Over Bhubaneswar Boy’s ‘Unique Business’ Of Charging Rs 500 To Tweet Old People’s Complaint

A good deed done at the cost of the ignorance of old people. A young boy in Bhubaneswar was caught charging Rs 500 to tweet old people’s complaints so that police can take notice of it. While his act of helping old people’s plight is laudatory, his act of making a business out of old people’s ignorance in modern-day technology has left the internet divided.

The young boys act of helping tweet old people’s tweet was shared by a police from Bhubaneshwar, ‘’Received a complaint on #Twitter. Invited the complainant to office. An old man came. Issue resolved.

While leaving he told that a young boy in his area tweets for others. Charges Rs. 500/- for every resolved issue.

We are a country of Middlemen’’ the tweet ended.

He saw a business opportunity ! Fifty years ago, letter writers sitting outside GPOs did a similar job.................only difference is that paper sheet has become smartphone and pen the finger.

On a positive side, we can appreciate the boy for using his skill and time to earn money and also enabling others to solve their issues. After all, what he is rendering is also a service. I believe he is much better than those who depend on parents or govt for money.

That's why Sir...... I think govts should increase the more easy ways of approach to them....so common and old/not highly educated citizens of our nation also get an easy access to the administration.....
