A 7-year-old boy from New Delhi was recently seen delivering food as a Zomato delivery partner. The boy, whose name is not known yet, took up his father's job after he met with an accident.

A Twitter user who ordered food on Zomato was presumably surprised after seeing the young boy deliver his order. He took a 30-second video asking the boy why he was doing this work. That’s when the boy spoke about his father. He also revealed that he attended school in the morning and carried out deliveries till 11 pm every day.

Rahul Mittal, the user who shared the video also gave the boy chocolates as encouragement. He wrote, “This 7 year boy is doing his father job as his father met with an accident the boy go to school in the morning and after 6 he work as a delivery boy for @zomato we need to motivate the energy of this boy and help his father to get into feet #zomato”
