Sharing a similar incident, one of the X users wrote, “Definitely a Nobel step. I ordered some stuff from hospital today through Blinkit and called the delivery person to ask him to deliver to our room. I was skeptical that he might give reasons like no parking. But, he delivered it to our room without any questions. Thank you people for your empathy.”

“This was implemented by @zomato before blinkit if I am not wrong. I once ordered food from hospital location and saw this message in zomato app,” added another user.

A third user added, “Zomato has had this feature since the COVID-19 pandemic if your geolocation was a hospital or you ticked a box indicating it's for an isolating person. They've carried it forward into Blinkit, nice.”
