Build One South Africa (Bosa), the United Democratic Movement (UDM) and the metalworkers union Numsa on Monday filed court papers to set aside energy regulator Nersa's approval of Eskom's plan to increase the electricity tariff.

The Democratic Alliance and civil society organisation Not In My Name International also confirmed that they will be taking the government to court over the tariff increase.
