“We booked Meru Cabs at Delhi Airport yesterday late evening. My colleague Vivek lost his phone in the cab. We didn't have the driver's number, we thought we were never going to get the phone back, and gave up hopes, but to our surprise Hiralal Mondal the driver came to the hotel with the phone,” Samuel wrote. He addressed Meru Cabs in the next part of his tweet. “Employees like Hiralal are an asset to your company, Hiralal has done this before as well, when a foreigner lost his wallet , he returned that back too. Humanity is in his blood. Pls take good care of him,” he added. He concluded the post with a picture of Hiralal.
