Raghav Chadha thanks Centre for removing ‘10-Minute delivery’ branding from quick-commerce apps
Chadha has repeatedly flagged exploitative labour practices in the delivery app sector. He sought a ban on the “10 minute delivery” system in the Parliament, arguing that the working conditions of delivery agents are often worse than daily wage labourers.
Chadha said the move was much needed, noting that the pressure on riders is real, constant, and dangerous.

Expressing gratitude, Chadha wrote on X that the move was much needed, noting that the pressure on delivery agents is real, constant, and dangerous.
“I am deeply grateful to the Central Government for its timely, decisive and compassionate intervention in enforcing the removal of the ’10-minute delivery’ branding from quick-commerce platforms. This is a much needed step because when ’10 minutes’ is printed on a rider’s tshirt/ jacket/ bag and a timer runs on the customer’s screen, the pressure is real, constant, and dangerous,” Chadha said.
