A day after Zomato's 10-minute delivery announcement received flak on social media, the food delivery app's founder Deepinder Goyal on Tuesday said "10-minute delivery is as safe for our delivery partners as 30-minute delivery."

Taking to social media, he explained how the latest service is safe. "Hello twitter, good morning. I just want to tell you more about how 10-minute delivery works, and how it is as safe for our delivery partners as 30-minute delivery. This time, please take 2 minutes to read through this (before the outrage)," Mr Goyal tweeted today morning.
