Hunger games: Battle for fast food delivery heats up

A war is brewing in online delivery as fast food takes on a new twist in India.
BENGALURU/NEW DELHI: After shaking up the retail market for online deliveries with their quick commerce services, Zomato's Blinkit and Swiggy recently launched standalone apps to deliver meals, snacks and beverages in 15-20 minutes.
Their quick commerce rival Zepto was the first off the mark among the three, starting a quick food delivery service called Zepto Cafe in 2022 and launching a standalone app for its food business in December last year.
In November, Bengaluru-based quick food delivery startup Swish raised $2 million from venture capital firm Accel and other investors. Swish was founded in August 2024.
The rush into online fast-food deliveries is expected to increase competition in the food ordering space, prompting regular food service companies to prepare items for shorter delivery timelines.

Warrior, rebel, north star
BR Ambedkar's sweeping, searing Annihilation of Caste — his manifesto, enclosing all that he wished for, for his people and his country — turns 90 this month. It is many things: a compass orienting the reader, a mirror held up to a nation, a love letter to reason. See how it was born (from a speech he wasn’t allowed to deliver); how it defined for him the path he would follow for the rest of his life; and how far short we have fallen of the dreams he had for the new India
