Ola, the Indian online transportation network company is getting all the praises from people all over the country for its generous act towards the residents of Kolkata after the recent over-bridge tragedy that claimed 24 innocent lives and more than 17 people were severely injured.
Ola cabs took it to twitter to announce that all the rides to and from the Girish Park (where the tragic incident happened) will be free for the day. This move of Ola is highly appreciative and is getting gratitude and admiration from people over twitter.
