Mumbai: With the BEST employees' strike continuing on Friday, the administration has rolled out special arrangements to ensure that students appearing for the NEET examination do not face travel difficulties. A total of 60 additional buses have been deployed across Mumbai to assist students travelling to and from 63 examination centres in the city.
Buses During Key Exam Hours
The buses will operate during key examination hours, from 9 am to 1 pm and again from 5 pm to 7 pm. Depot managers have been directed to ensure smooth operations and adequate availability of buses near examination centres. The move comes amid concerns that the ongoing strike could affect thousands of students and their families on an important examination day.
At the same time, the administration has intensified efforts to deal with the strike. Notices under the Maharashtra Essential Services Maintenance Act (MESMA) were served on employees participating in the agitation. Similar notices were also issued to wet-lease contractors operating BEST services.
