Business tycoon Anand Mahindra recently shared a hilarious post on the social media platform, Twitter hailing the Indian wits behind last-minute hacks for every problem. He even stated that 'Necessity is the mother of invention’ was invented by Indians as every problem in India has a 'Jugaad' (hack). Often used to signify creativity in making the best out of minimal resources available, 'jugaad' is celebrated as an example of the Indian spirit of resourcefulness and enterprise.

I think the phrase ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’ was invented by Indians! Here’s a new product our Farm & Construction sectors will have to consider as a replacement for an excavator: A ‘Khatiya-vator’. #whatsappwonderbox pic.twitter.com/av3qNdIAHd

Anand Mahindra shared this mind-blowing video on his Twitter account wherein someone creatively made a makeshift excavator using a cot. Yes, a cot is used as a makeshift excavator! In the video, a construction vehicle with the cot attached to it is used to pick up a load of mud, much like an excavator would. Anand Mahindra captioned his tweet as 'I think the phrase ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’ was invented by Indians! Here’s a new product our Farm & Construction sectors will have to consider as a replacement for an excavator: A ‘Khatiya-vator’. #whatsappwonderbox' This tweet has gained many appreciations and praises for the genius behind this innovative hack.
