"Hi @zomatocare @zomato, the delivery executive got assaulted while delivering my order (#4267443050). Some woman took the order from him and started hitting him with her footwear. He came to my place crying and terrified that he would lose his job," read the caption.

In a Twitter thread, the user explained the entire incident. "I told them that 'I don't care about the order, your partner got assaulted, please help him,' but they asked me to tell the rider to contact rider support.
