Mumbai's public transport system continued to face significant disruption on Sunday as the strike by employees of the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) undertaking entered its third day. With thousands of commuters affected across the city, authorities made special arrangements to ensure students appearing for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) re-examination could reach their examination centres without difficulty.

The BEST undertaking said it had deployed more than 100 buses exclusively for NEET candidates, even as regular bus operations remained severely affected due to the ongoing agitation.
