Previous incidents and Swiggy’s response
This incident is not an isolated case. Earlier, a similar controversy erupted when a Swiggy Instamart delivery agent was caught on CCTV stealing shoes from outside a flat in Gurugram. The footage, shared by user Rohit Arora on X (formerly Twitter), shows the delivery agent taking the shoes after delivering an order.

Swiggy's official response to the Gurugram incident was to express disappointment and request the user to contact them via direct message for further assistance. However, Arora's comment highlighted the ongoing dissatisfaction with how such complaints are handled.
As these incidents continue to emerge, the public's trust in delivery services is increasingly being tested.
