Excellent! Such innovative ideas should be showcased in industrial exhibitions, with financial & logistic support from ministries concerned. The innovator Arun Prabhu deserves more than just a passing applause.

Hope he understands a little thing called centre of gravity. It's way too high on this contraption. The live load on it will keep shifting it too. It's balanced on 3 wheels & unsteady.

A good start though, as long as he doesn't move it and keeps it stabilized through the props.
