Maruti got the idea when he himself became a victim
Maruti Tripathi, citing an incident that happened to him, says that travelers and other tourists often fall prey to the conspiracy of local shopkeepers, drivers and guides etc. Sometimes they pay much higher than normal price for cheap, counterfeit and low quality products. During our trip to Chennai with my father in the year 2019, we faced many such problems when local shopkeepers cheated us. Also, the language problem came up during communication with the cab drivers and we were stuck and helpless at an unknown place. Later I researched and discovered that I was not the only one out there who was suffering from these problems. There were millions more people who were trapped in this trap and felt helpless. After that I decided to find a solution to these problems and started working in a planned manner. As a result the startup “Travjo” is in front of everyone. Maruti told that Karishma Singh and Prof. Dr. Himanshu Pandey is guiding for this app from the very beginning.
