Mumbai: BEST Employees Sacked As Dance Video With Cash Being Showered Goes Viral!
The dismissal has created extreme discontent among the employees and according to a source quoted in the report, they may file an appeal against the directive.
Mumbai, August 28: Madhavi Juvekar, an actress and also a BEST employee, has been dismissed a year after a video of her dancing at a Dusshehra party went viral. According to a Times of India report, Juvekar along with 6 staffers have been sacked from their work. In the video, cash is seen showering in the air. In addition to this, seven other people who can be seen in the video were punished with a reduction in pay grade.
The dismissal has created extreme discontent among the employees and according to a source quoted in the report, they may file an appeal against the directive. Juvekar, as spoken to a TV channel, said, "The issue was blown out of proportion. The notes in the video are fake, something you get in children's bank. We bought these notes with our money and not with BEST money."
A similar thing happened recently when Air India has asked its employees to immediately remove videos of them from social media sites in uniform and dancing to foot tapping numbers. The airline warned them of disciplinary action if the distasteful videos are not immediately removed.
