Raghav Chadha and Deepinder Goyal Debate Gig Economy Worker Rights and Business Models

Aam Aadmi Party MP Raghav Chadha has criticized the gig economy model, particularly remarks by Eternal CEO Deepinder Goyal, arguing that flexibility should not exempt platforms from labor protections. Chadha asserts he is pro-startup but against "exploitation dressed as progress," emphasizing that worker dignity and fair pay are paramount. Goyal, defending the gig model, stated that 10-minute delivery promises are enabled by store density, not by pressuring riders to drive faster, and that delivery partners do not have timers on their apps. The debate highlights differing views on worker rights versus business innovation in the rapidly growing gig sector.
