YouTuber Benjamin Rich, also known as Bald and Bakrupt, is being criticised online for calling Indian the "most frustrating place to travel". In his recent video, titled 'I visited India so you don't have to', Mr Rich offers a glimpse of his journey in Delhi and Kolkata. His vlog begins with a rickshaw ride to Delhi's Paharganj. He introduces Delhi as the capital city, before sarcastically commenting about the changes in the city since his last visit. "Surely there must be some improvements in the last six years. Judging by the traffic, not too many," he said in the video.
