In their own words

It's an innovative service where there is no Hyperlocal delivery for Bharat as of now. "Rural areas are the backbone of the Indian economy. As of the 2022 census, 65% of the entire population still lives in the rural areas of the country. Rural India has been for the most part ignored by the government and the urban populace. The problems faced by the rural populace is not limited to just having a roof over the head but also a complete lack of even the basic necessities of life. Moreover, there is a huge shortage of resources that the villagers face on a daily basis when compared to those in the cities. The needs increase by the day in the villages as much as they do in the urban areas. Though the rural population is catching up with the technological developments happening across the country, there are still great lapses in connectivity. Unlike the densely populated urban areas, the population in the rural areas is quite scattered and the availability of regular transportation and services is still scant and unreliable. Even to this day, most villagers in rural areas travel almost an hour or more to the nearest town to buy the most basic of their necessities such as groceries, medicines, food, and agricultural equipment among others. It is a task that requires almost an entire day and lots of planning. The buses are less frequent, and you often have to wait a long time for public transport. You also need to put a lot of effort into roaming around the shops within the town. And of course, you need to spend money on petrol or bus fare. So city-dwellers often have a lot of challenges when they travel to rural areas. Bharat is different from India in many ways. It's more spread out geographically, and the mindsets of people in Bharat are different from those in urban areas. The same solutions that work in urban areas might not work in rural areas.
