Thank you all for watching

A year ago on this day, we started the Blinkit Ambulance service in Gurugram with a simple intent - to see if we could make emergency medical help reach people faster, when every minute counts. It was uncomfortable territory. Emergency care is complex, sometimes outcomes are unforgiving, and there’s very little margin for error. And training people to make the right calls under pressure is a long, deliberate process. Over the last year, this is what that effort has grown into: • Our ambulance team has handled 4,200+ cases out of which 1,810 were time sensitive medical emergencies • We now operate 25 ambulances across most of Gurugram & Manesar, and some parts of Delhi (Lajpat Nagar, Malviya Nagar, Patel Nagar, Dwarka, Greater Kailash) • Our ambulances reached the patients within 10 minutes, 87% of the time • We have trained and deployed 70 paramedics from the Blinkit Academy in our ambulances All of this without charging any money from the families that needed this service. But the work behind these numbers matters more than the numbers themselves. We learned that we would have to invest massively in training paramedics. It requires infrastructure, investment, and constant review, especially when decisions need to be made in seconds, often with incomplete information. We also learned that expanding responsibly sometimes means saying no - to moving too fast and to launching areas or cities before systems are ready. We’re still early in this journey. We’ll keep expanding carefully, investing deeply in training, and work towards building a world class ambulance service. Grateful to the teams on the ground who carry this responsibility every day 💛

I appeal to the winning party in Haryana, please make Gurgaon a better city to live in. Broken roads, garbage, trash, no pavements to walk, no cycling lanes, pedestrian horrors, unregulated food kiosks, mismanaged traffic, rain unfriendliness, and the list goes on. Please!
