India's Supreme Court recently unveiled a new statue of Lad’ Justice, an iconic symbol of the judiciary, marking a significant departure from traditional representations rooted in colonial heritage.
Zomato, one of India’s leading food delivery platforms, is now serving users in 500 cities across India, say their sources. They also added that the company is expanding to four new cities every day over the last month.
Zomato is also providing food delivery services to utilize the untapped potential in Tier 3-4 cities in India. At present, Zomato makes over 1000 deliveries every minute, a figure that has more than doubled in the past nine months, claim the company.
The newest additions include Alappuzha and Malappuram (Kerala), Pushkar (Rajasthan), Ankleshwar and Mehsana (Gujarat), Kanyakumari, Kodaikanal and Cuddalore (Tamil Nadu), Itarsi and Ashoknagar (Madhya Pradesh), Fazilka and Nawanshahr (Punjab), Vrindavan and Azamgarh (Uttar Pradesh), Silvassa (Daman), Chittoor (Andhra Pradesh), Daltonganj (Jharkhand), Pataudi (Gurgaon), Osmanabad and Sawantwadi (Maharashtra) and Shillong (Meghalaya).

Zomato’s food delivery services are now available in three north-eastern states – Meghalaya, Assam and Tripura.
Mohit Gupta, CEO- Food Delivery, Zomato, said, “We follow a data-driven strategy to decide potential cities encompassing a measure of the overall population, student population and restaurants. It is a delight to witness first-day-tales from lesser-known cities like Giridih in Jharkhand (population of around 1.5 lakh) clocking over 1000 orders/day and all restaurants in Gudivada in Andhra Pradesh (population of 1 lakh+) running out of food by lunchtime, on the very first day. While the growth in the top 15 cities has tripled in the last 12 months, our emerging cities now contribute 40% to our business. We are excited to change the paradigm of food as we continue to let every bit of India get a taste of Zomato.”
