The pictures show the auto decked up with facilities ranging from a washbasin, mobile phone charging points, plants and a desktop monitor.
“You can charge your phone in my auto. There is purified drinking water and there is a washbasin. I also don’t charge senior citizens for rides up to one kilometre. The reason I did this is that I wanted to provide better services to passengers,” Gite told ANI.
Among several other netizens, Twinkle Khanna took to Instagram to talk about the “genius Mumbai rickshaw”.
“Washbasin and a desktop monitor, this genius Mumbai rickshaw belong in the jugaad Hall Of Fame,” Khanna wrote while sharing an image of the auto.
Gite was elated to know about Twinkle Khanna’s post. “I didn’t know about it but I am very surprised as well. I am a big fan of her and Akshay Kumar. I wish I could meet Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna,” he said.
Many others took to Twitter to appreciate Gite’s unique initiative.
