Breakdown turns into spectacle

Anil Singh Medtia, who serves as the opposition leader of the Kuchaman Nagar Parishad in Deedwana district, was driving his electric car through the city when it suddenly stopped functioning.

Local farmers stepped in to assist, bringing their bullocks to tow the sleek, modern vehicle off the road. This juxtaposition of cutting-edge technology and traditional methods drew the attention of passers-by, some of whom captured the scene on their phones.

“The company has not provided any proper response,” he stated, expressing frustration with the lack of resolution from the manufacturer.

Social media buzz

The video of bullocks towing the electric car has gone viral, drawing humorous and critical reactions from netizens. While some users praised the resilience of traditional methods, others questioned the viability of electric vehicles in rural and semi-urban settings where support infrastructure is limited.
