TOP NEWS: Delhi High Court restrains DMRC workers from going on strike

The Delhi High Court today restrained DMRC staff from going on their proposed strike from midnight over a number of demands, including pay-scale revision, saying huge inconvenience would be caused to commuters.
After an urgent hearing which started around 5:30 pm, Justice Vipin Sanghi passed the interim order holding that prima facie, the action of the metro staff does not seem to be justified or legal.
The court, in an ex-parte order, said Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is running a public utility service which caters to around 25 lakh citizens of Delhi, who come largely from the middle income group, on a daily basis and sufficient notice has not been given to the DMRC and the conciliation proceedings are still in progress.
DMRC moved the urgent petition which was mentioned at the residence of Acting Chief Justice Gita Mittal who assigned it for hearing before Justice Sanghi.
