An e-rickshaw driver in West Bengal allows his passengers to not pay the fares provided they answer a general knowledge quiz correctly.

A Facebook user Sankalan Sarkar described about this unique ride that he experienced on the social media platform.

Sarkar wrote that at first he misunderstood that the e-rickshaw driver was trying to trick him by extracting double the amount from him.


Sarkar was even asked about the first Chief Minister (CM) of West Bengal, to which his replied Dr BC Roy, but was surprised to know that he was incorrect over here.

“This Vikram-Betaal thing went on for some more time. From Sridevi’s birth date to the world’s first test-tube baby, we covered a wide range of topics. I asked him one or two, and he answered them all. I was impressed,” the Facebook user wrote, as reported by Indian Express.

“Financial constraints made me drop out of school in Class 6, but I keep reading these things up till 2 AM at night, everyday. I am a member of the Liluah Book Fair Foundation as well,” the driver told Sarkar, as per the post.
