This development follows a public dispute between Ola founder Bhavish Agarwal and stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra on social media platform X. Kamra had raised concerns about the after-sales service quality of Ola Electric scooters, citing complaints from dissatisfied customers.
The exchange began when Agarwal responded to Kamra’s criticism regarding the condition of Ola electric scooters displayed outside what appeared to be an Ola dealership.
