Comrade,
Sub: – Need of united struggles for the settlement of wage revision – reg.
I went through your CHQ website updating dated 09.08.2017, on the discussion between CMD BSNL and the unions and associations.
In yesterday’s meeting, as I pointed out categorically that the DPE letter dated 03.08.2017, has completely closed the doors for the wage settlement of BSNL employees. It is our considered opinion that BSNL does not come within the purview of certain categories of PSUs, for which some relaxation has been given from the Affordability Clause of the 3rd PRCs recommendations. I also told the CMD BSNL in a forthright manner, the DoT has totally let down the BSNL employees in the matter of wage revision.
As mentioned in your website updating, certainly we have to try our best to make the DoT and the government to understand that, BSNL should be shown a special consideration, as it is discharging certain responsibilities on behalf of the government of India, in providing broadband connections to the villages and also providing connectivity to the far flung areas.
At the same time, BSNLEU wishes to make it very clear that, the wage revision of BSNL employees cannot be settled without a serious and sustained struggle. In your website updating also, you have rightly mentioned that a “decisive struggle” is needed to settle the wage revision. We appreciate your view that all of us should unite together, keeping aside our differences, and to fight for the settlement of wage revision. We assure that, BSNLEU will take it’s best efforts to unite all the unions and associations, for a united struggle to settle the wage revision.
Thanking you,
Yours fraternally,
[P. Abhimanyu]
General Secretary
