Thousands of gig workers from platforms like Zomato, Swiggy, Blinkit, and Amazon are planning a nationwide strike on New Year's Eve, December 31. Led by unions such as IFAT and GIPSWU, the protest aims to highlight concerns over low pay, job insecurity, and safety risks, particularly opposing the '10-minute delivery' model. While the strike is voluntary, workers express fear of being blacklisted. The action is expected to impact food delivery and quick commerce services, with a similar protest occurring on Christmas Day.
