BEST has put on hold a proposal to ‘outsource’ distribution of electricity bills through a private courier service

The Brihanmumbai Electric Supply & Transport Undertaking (BEST) has “put on hold a proposal by the administration to ‘outsource’ distribution of electricity bills and notices for disconnections through a private courier service. A few members termed this as 'privatization' of bill distribution which could cost the jobs of a section of BEST staffers.” [The Times of India, 7 February 2017]
