The Indian government has asked online shopping apps to stop their very fast '10-minute' delivery service. This is because delivery workers said it was not safe for them.
Many people in cities like to order food and other things quickly using their phones. But the workers who bring these items often have to drive very fast to meet the 10-minute promise. This can be dangerous.
Last month, many delivery workers stopped working to ask for better pay and safer jobs. After this, the government talked to the companies and asked them to change their quick delivery promises.
Some companies have already removed the '10-minute' promise from their apps. The government hopes this will make the job safer for delivery workers.
