Hyderabad, October 26: A delivery agent working for an online food ordering platform on Friday registered a complaint against a client, who refused to accept his order as the agent was Muslim. In his complaint, Mudassir claimed that the customer, Ajay Kumar especially requested for his food to be delivered by a Hindu delivery agent and not a Muslim while placing his order. Zomato Shuts Down Bigoted Customer Who Cancelled Food Delivery From Non-Hindu, Says 'Food Doesn't Have Religion', Wins Hearts.
