Aushyaman Nitin Molke, NFTE special invitee Com Shantanu Shete witnessed prominent presence. Circle secretary NFTE, Com Ranjan Dani delivered introductory speech & explained the election scenario in M.H. circle which is getting more opportunities to win NFTE as number one union. Com. Aushyman and Com. N. D. Ram in his one hour inspiring speech fully exposed the anti worker, arrogant character of BSNLEU during its 18 years long recognition. He has explained in detail how wage revision was derailed due to adamant attitude of BSNLEU. Stagnation of thousands of employees is created by BSNLEU agreements & that union is unable to resolve the issue. Having failed on all grounds like NEPP, CGA appointments, wage revision, BSNLEU has started to misguide the employees by hammering of false propaganda & it’s leadership is taking a credit of achievement of AUAB, shamelessly, he added. He appealed to the huge gathering amidst loud clappings & inspiring slogans to vote for NFTE & Make it a number one union on 12th October 22. He emphasised that the stagnated employees are the victims of BSNLEU wrong policies & appealed them to vote for NFTE. NFTE GS Com C Sing explained the burning issues of staff & bsnl company in detail. He highlighted the major achievements of NFTE regarding CGA appointments, protection of jobs & pension, restructuring of Cadres in new technology & social economical upgradation of employees thereof, conducting of LICEs, reducing the eligibility criteria of JEs from 10 years to 5 years for appearing to JTO exams, change of designation of all Cadres, promotions of RMs, TMs without the obstacle of educational qualifications etc. His one hour deliberation also cautioned the workers about govt & management’s anti worker anti BSNL policies due to which the PSU is lagging behind. It is very unfortunate that Govt’s own company is not allowed to start 4G while Prime Minister of the nation is inaugurating 5G services of private companies. To meet the challenges before BSNL & the employees, number one union is miserably failed, he underlined. The number one union has betrayed the workers who have supported them for 18 years in succession & now taking credit of monthly salary in time which is an absurd claim itself. It became possible due the efforts of AUAB only, he added. To overcome the present crisis, he appealed the workers to vote for NFTE in forthcoming verification & defeat the egoistic tendencies working in the name of BSNLEU. All DSs, DPs, circle office bearers & hundreds of comrades of NFTE & SEWA in 7 districts of Vidarbha region present gave very attentive hearing to the deliberations in the convention. The roaring slogans with tremendous enthusiasm of the workers ensured total victory of NFTE in this verification. Whole campus was decorated with patakas, flexes, banners & cut outs of NFTE SEWA organisations. The JEs of Nagpur who have passed JTO exam were felicitated in the meeting by both the leaders. President Com. Ayushman Ghardeji appreciated the ongoing campaign in M.H. circle in which NFTE SEWA comrades are working together with full co-ordination & dedication. He thanked both the leaders for their joint efforts & day night work for the victory of NFTE. He ensured that NFTE SEWA will get absolute majority in the election as employees are fed up with the anti worker approach & dictatorial functioning of BSNLEU. Com Shantanu Shete gave vote of thanks.

  18-09-2022 : Make NFTE organization the number one union to stop injustice, neglect and harm to non-executive employees of BSNL and get fair rights of employees:- NFTE General Secretary Com C Singh and SEWA General Secretary Com N D Ram appeal to workers in the Mumbai meeting. The state-wide meeting of BSNL employees concluded today at the office in Santacruz Mumbai. About *200 employees* attended the meeting despite heavy rains across Maharashtra. *Saluting the statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Bharat Ratna Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar* in an atmosphere of great enthusiasm, the gathering was a success that can only be described as grand and resounding. The main attraction of the meeting was the grand banners, cut outs, red and blue flags flying all over the office area, loud slogans, and the whole circle office was overwhelmed with the welcome of Com C Singh and Com N D Ram. Throughout the day, both the leaders gave guidance on the current state of BSNL company, the maze of government packages and the burning issues of the workers. Govt and BSNL management is indifferent to the issue of employees. *3rd PRC, Important questions like new promotion policy with reservation, compassionate recruitment, rule 8 transfer, 30% SAB etc. are also pending*. The so-called number one organization that cannot solve any of these problems has failed miserably. Arrogant leaders of this number one organization are responsible for the financial loss of lakhs of rupees to group “D” employees who have been stagnant for *10 years due to wrong wage agreement.* Disaster-affected families are left in despair as *Compensation Ground* recruitment is suspended indefinitely. Threats are made to employees who endure unabated workloads and the Maine Recognized Union is covering up its failure by staging lunch hour demonstrations. *The platform of the National Council, where workers' issues are raised, has been blocked by the same number of leaders just out of arrogance and it is this organization that is responsible for not having a single meeting of this Council in the last three years, who have deliberately kept all issues pending for lunch hour protests by closing the doors of discussion.* So now they have nothing to say to the workers while facing the verification. And so the workers are starting to realize that it is wrong to expect anything from the union which is trying to take credit for the fact that they have started paying on time due to the pressure of AUAB and taking the CMD removal program together. *An earnest appeal to NFTE to stamp the number 13 on 12th October and stamp the number 13 on October 12*, not succumbing to the false propaganda of a non-combatant but showy organization whose narrow, domineering and arrogant attitude has completely eliminated trade union pressure on government and management. *Both leaders Com C Singh and Com N D Ram* spoke in this meeting. Com C G Jagtap, circle president of NFTE, presided over the meeting. Com Ranjan Dani inaugurated and moderated the gathering. Circle Secretary of SEWA Com Linesh Valvi in this verification made an unequivocal appeal to the SEWA workers of all the districts of Maharashtra to work shoulder to shoulder with the workers of NFTE with all their strength to win NFTE. Former President of SEWA Com Balasaheb Garud, Com Sopan Shinde and Com Amrit Mane, Com K P Kharat and National Vice President Com Deepak Jadhav also addressed on behalf of NFTE. At the end circle treasurer Com Shivaji Chavan thanked the circle treasurer for making NFTE number one in a barrage of slogans The meeting was presided over by Com Bhupesh Malve, Seva Circle President, SEWA Circle Treasurer Com Vijay Dhoble and NFTE Com Ulhas Javalekar, Com Mansingrao Patil and Com Shantanu Shete. In this gathering, SNEA circle secretary Com Mahadev Kotambe along with team SNEA felicitated Com C Singh and Com ND Ram and gave a deep message of staff officer unity and won the hearts of all. NFTE Assistant Circle Secretary Com Milind Ingle, Com Smt Sumti, Com Khan, Com Sanjay Sonwane, Com Bane organized the gathering beautifully and elaborately. The meeting was attended by district secretary of NFTE and SEWA, circle office bearers and prominent activists. *Make NFTE organization the number one union to stop injustice, neglect and harm to non-executive employees of BSNL and get fair rights of employees...!* Click Here

Hence, settlement of 5% fitment is not possible Lengthy discussions took place without any result. Finally, the Staff Side demanded that, Wage Revision should be settled with 5% fitment on the following grounds:- 1) BSNL is going to launch it’s 4G service shortly, which will result in increased revenue collection. 2) Top officers of BSNL have already got their pay revision through the 7th CPC, whereas, the employees are denied Wage Revision. 3)Tariffs are increasing in the telecom sector, which can be taken advantage of by BSNL, to some extent. The meeting ended without taking any decision.

Sri Sunil Kumar GM HR and Admin is making all efforts to protect the GM Bhagalpur. There is also a scam in 12 SIM sales at Bhagalpur BA. The GM reported that 12 lakhs Sim have been sold and took credits for high sale but not a single SIM is activated and a big loss to BSNL on the cost of personal gain of the GM Bhagalpur.. The similar resentment were absorbed against Shri Sunil Kumar GM ( HR&Admn) circle office Patna. who is a most arrogant officer and not maintaining even the minimum courtesy with the representative of circle level union. The following burning issues are long pending due to negligence of Shri. Sunil Kumar GM HR Bihar Circle Patna. (1)Non issuance of presidential orders to six RMs. (2)Non payment of salaries of 13 TSMs and three casual labourers from June 2018 for 13 months.

  24-09-2021 :Resolution passed in the AUAB meeting held at New Delhi on 23.09.2021. :-This meeting of the AUAB notes with satisfaction that, the 3 day dharna programme, organised by the AUAB at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi, from 21st September, 2021, onwards, has become highly successful.
Large number of employees and pensioners from Delhi, as well as from UP (West), Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand and UP(East), have enthusiastically participated in this 3 day dharna programme.
This meeting also notes with satisfaction that, this 3 day dharna programme has created a great amount of zeal and motivation among the BSNL employees and pensioners throughout the country.
This meeting conveys it’s special thanks to all the employees and pensioners who have participated in the programme from Delhi, as well as from UP (West), Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand and UP(East) and also puts on record, it’s appreciation to all the circle unions of the constituents of the AUAB, belonging to the aforementioned circles.
Further, this meeting severely condemns the BSNL Management for issuing a very retrograde letter on 17.09.2021, to create a fear psychosis among the employees and to stop them from participating in this dharna.
By issuing such letters, Management is only trying to snatch the democratic rights of the employees to protest, which we cannot be allowed. This meeting assures that, further struggles and movements will be organised in the days to come, demanding settlement of the issues contained in the charter of demands of the AUAB.
  24-09-2021 :For kind attention of all circle/BA/SSA secretaries :-The last day about 200 comrades from different circles participated in dharna.
Respected comrades, NFTE CHQ has served a notice to BSNL management to hold a lunch hour demonstration on 27 .09.2021 to support the call of Bharatbant by the SKM and to oppose.
i. the Govt proposal to monetize 14198 BTS Towers and optical fiber through National Monetization Pipe line.
ii. To oppose the Govt.move towards privatisation of central PSUs.
All of you are requested to mobilize our members and other workers also and organize a massive demonstration to protest the anti PSUs move of the Govt.
