PRAYAGRAJ: Shivam Gupta’s internet café unfurls in an unexpected way among the carts selling all things imaginable on this ancient city’s streets. Jobless after being laid off at an automobile plant in Manesar three years ago, the 23-year-old, with no formal education in computers/IT, operates his RCG Global Service from a hand cart.
Shivam and his cafe on wheels — an out-of-the-box idea appreciated by many — can be spotted near the regional transport office (RTO) in the Naini area of Prayagraj. It’s a go-to point for people who go to the RTO for their driving licence and need printouts of documents. He also helps aspirants of competitive exams fill out forms. Add-on services include train ticket booking and money transfer.
