A post shared by a Facebook user about his interesting interaction with an e-rickshaw driver in West Bengal has amazed people. There is a chance that after reading the entire post, you’ll feel the same way too.
Sankalan Sarkar, hailing from Liluah in West Bengal, shared the post. “Today I met one of the most interesting people I’ve ever come across in Liluah. We were traveling on his Toto (battery run e-rickshaw, for those who haven’t been on one) to Rangoli Mall when suddenly he turned around and asked us, ‘I’ll let go of the fare if you can answer 15 general knowledge questions I’m going to ask you.’ My wife was amused. Frankly, my first thought was that he was not too happy with the fare he had quoted and would try to double it if we goofed up on even one question,” he wrote.
In the next few lines, he talked about the questions that the driver asked him and how Sarkar answered. In the post, he also talked about how the driver kept his love for reading alive despite dropping out of school due to “financial constraints.” The post is complete with an image.
