A new problem of prejudice seems to be creeping up amongst delivery partners, more with Swiggy in the city off-late. On a handful of occasions recently, Swiggy Genie partners have refused to comply and pick up parcels containing non-vegetarian food.

Customers in Hyderabadwho use the service were not only shocked, but were also surprised that Swiggy delivery partners even asked them what their package contained before rejecting to drop it. A few of them Siasat.com spoke to said that one on occasion the Swiggy delivery partner specifically said he would not touch anything that has meat in it and left, and even refused to cancel the order from his end.
