Amid the ongoing Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) employees' protest that entered its 13th day on Wednesday, as many as 918 staff members of the state transport corporation have been suspended so far.

All 250 bus depots of the state remained shut today, said MSRTC PRO.

The protesters are demanding the merging of MSRTC with the State Government.
