Mumbai, Apr 1 (IBNS): The Mumbai High Court on Tuesday asked Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport Undertaking (BEST) workers to resume work immediately after the BEST management moved court saying the workers were creating problem for the people in the city with their protest.
BEST officials reportedly told the court that nearly 50 lakh students were affected due to the strike.
