Panaji: A heartwarming video surfaced from Goa, where a foreigner was helped by a Rapido driver after she lost her way at around 10 pm and left wandering along at night. Seeing the foreigner worried, the Rapido rider, Sindhu Kumari, stepped in to help her.
Kumari stopped for the tourist and dropped her safely to her hotel after Google Maps also did not show her the exact way. While dropping the foreign tourist to her hotel, Coconut Grow, Kumari recorded a video, which is now going viral on social media. The exact date of the incident is not known.
