The video was shared on Instagram and has received immense online attraction.
How's social media reacting?
Social media users have flooded the comment section of the video. One user commented, "True, but it's not just about the amount. An auto driver may earn more some months, but he's on the streets all day heat, traffic, uncertainty, no fixed hours. A 20 30k salaried job usually comes with stability, routine, and a bit more comfort. Different lives, different trade-offs. Money alone doesn't tell the full story," and another wrote, "For that 75k they don't have work life balance and privileges."
The third comment read, "Dignity of labour is non existent in India."
