28-09-2024 : The General Secretary addressed the open session at Guwahati:-on the occasion of
Asam Circle's executive committee meeting and Kamrup BA's biennial conference, an open session was scheduled to be held on 26th Sept 2024 at 11.30 am.
The session started after flag hoisting.
Com Chandeshwar Singh General secretary hoisted the NFTE flag.
Shri J.B.Singh, GM.admin & HR, Shri Chourasiya, GM BA Kamrup other DGMs and AGMs of Kamrup BA were present in the session.
com Singh GS inaugurated the session of a gathering of about 200 workers. More than a dozen lady workers were also participating..
GS in his inaugural speech exhorted and elaborately explained the suffering of employees of BSNL. He added that at the time of corporatization, none of the union leaders and employees expected that they would have to face such a painful situation after some time in BSNL.
The BSNL which was a miniratna company in the year 2004-05 and was to be entered as Navratna company Of the country, due to the stepmother treatment of the Govt the financial position of the company started to decline from 2007-8.
After VRS 2020 also the company did not turn fast toward growth rather a similar critical situation continued till December 2021.
Even the salary of staff was not paid on time.
The present situation is also critical for the staff.
The wage revision is denied due to the loss of the company for which employees are not responsible at all.
The profit and loss of any company depend upon the policy of the owner.
It is a totally abnormal and peculiar situation prevailing in the company as it's 60 percent employees are facing stagnation. LICEs are conducted in half of the circles and employees of half of the circles are not getting chance to appear in exam in the name of no vacancy.
The then BSNL management in 2021 ruined the future carrier of employees in name of restructuring staff and distribution of manpower.
About 13 circles became surplus for all Caders.
This methodology to manage human resources is unique in the country.
This has blocked the facilities of inter circle / BA transfer of the staff, even the spouse cases are denied violating the order of DOPT.
GS said that all together the development of human resources and welfare measures for them has stopped.
The abnormal delay in rolling out of 4 G-based mobile services reduced the market share to worse.
For all these lapses employees are punished which is beyond even the natural justice.
Shri J.B.singh GM of HR addressed the meeting and reported that all HR issues of the employees are taken care of on time and settled within a time frame.
Shri Chourasiya ji GM BA Kamrup also addressed and reported regarding the growth of services. He added that the relation with staff unions is very cordial and every issue are being settled very smoothly in Kamrup BA.
The open session was concluded with a vote of thanks by Com P.C. patagiri who was the chairperson of the meeting.

19-03-2024 : Extract from the meeting of District Secretaries of NFTE BSNL Maharashtra Circle on wage revision :-
It's a unique situation in BSNL that their is no wage revision since 17 years & no allowances revised since 22 years. More than 54% of absorbed employees & 22 % direct recruited employees have lost their annual increments due to stagnation. This financial atrocity is imposed on the employees for the no fault of their own. New pay scales are denied in the name of affordability & profitability of BSNL. It is well known fact that BSNL is not working for profit only but it has to discharge its duty to serve the nation & society as a whole. To provide communication services in rural, hilly areas, & maintain during natural calamities has been a track record of BSNL although it’s a loss making activity. Thus profitability is accompanied by social obligation only in case of BSNL, being a Govt PSU. It is also performing it’s role as a price regulator & committed to expanding the services at an affordable rates. This all prestigious nature of BSNL is making it as a
“strategic sector”. In short BSNL has to implement Govt agenda in which employees have no voice.
Naturally denying the wage revision to the employees on the plea of profitability is totally wrong & unjustified. Taking this legitimate stand, NFTE on its own & also along with other unions & associations launched many struggles for getting wage revision implemented. Due to these sustained efforts DOT has permitted to start negotiations by forming joint wage committee & endorsed our right to get wage revision. We hereby earnestly appreciate the hard efforts & tedious exercises done by wage committee under the guidance & leadership of Com. C. Singh & Com. P. Abhimanyu. Now, as assured by the management during our Protest week from 13th February to 17th February, meetings of wage committee have been restarted. We honestly feel that we should use this opportunity to reach to the agreement for new pay scales which will remove stagnation & pave the way for considerable increase in basic pay of employees.
In circle secretariat meeting held at New Delhi on 6th March, it was categorically told by Our GS that management is ready to protect Pay Loss & also demand of no stagnation till 2027 will also be taken care of. The maximum possible enhancement in NE-9 scale also can be considered. In view of this situation, we unanimously resolve to appeal to both the Stalwarts of staff side in wage committee to sign the agreement at an earliest for emancipation of employees from the evil of stagnation & financial distress thereof. We also hope that no other factor including fitment formula will become a hurdle in signing the agreement for new pay scales. However, if in future, executives get more fitment than non ex, the same should be made applicable to non ex also. Hope our expectations do not turn into despair.

06-03-2024 : The meeting of Joint negotiation committee for third Wage Revision in BSNL for non executive employees was held on 05/03/2024 at the BSNL Corporate HQ in New Delhi. The three representatives of NFTE - BSNL, Comrades Chandeswer Singh, Islam Ahmad and Seshadri participated in it . According to the management side the pay scales circulated in 2022 was insisted for third wage revision on zero fitment formula. The staff side was asked to submit its opinion / objectively if any on the management’s proposal in the next meeting scheduled on 22/03/2024.
After this committee meeting General Secretaries of both NFTE & BSNLEU jointly met the CMD and discussed about the third wage revision. The CMD expressed concern about the difficult financial condition of BSNL and requested both the unions to agree to the management’s proposal of pay scales with shorter span . However the CMD agreed to consider any reduction in pay or anomaly arising out of the wage revision despite the management’s best efforts to avoid this for 95% of employees.
The notification for the General elections to the Parliament is expected in the second week of March 24 and the code of conduct for elections will begin immediately thereafter. Hence any decision on the implementation of third wage revision had to wait till the new central government is formed . But there’s no bar to continue the joint negotiations. Anyhow the two day meeting of the National Secretariat of NFTE -BSNL beginning tomorrow (06/03/2024) will be briefed elaborately by the General Secretary on the details of the joint wage revision negotiations committee meeting held on 05/03/24 and the opinion of the Circle Secretaries will be sought.
Let us dispassionately assess the management’s proposal keeping in mind the difficult financial position of BSNL and evolve a concesus on the implementation of third wage revision which is already delayed by seven years and nearly one third of employees are facing stagnation for the past several years.

22-05-2023 : Delhi Chalo programme’s date changed to 07.07.2023 – all comrades are requested to kindly make note please:-
The Joint Forum of the Non-Executive Unions and Associations of BSNL has already taken decision to organise a massive Delhi Chalo programme on 26.06.2023. However, comrades from many circles have informed that, train tickets to and from Delhi are not available during that period. This is due to the fact that, it is vacation period for North India up to 30.06.2023 and hence there will be a lot of rush in the trains. The Joint Forum reviewed this position and has now decided to organise the Delhi Chalo programme on 07.07.2023. Lot of train tickets are available for this date. Hence, all the circle secretaries of the constituents of the Joint Forum are requested to immediately book the tickets for the Delhi Chalo programme and to make it a grand success. It must be also noted that, there is no change in the dates of the Human Chain and March to Governor’s Residence programmes….C. Singh, G.S. NFTE –BSNL, Chairman Joint Forum of the non-executives Unions and Associations.

On 25th Feb meeting was inaugurated by national vice president Com Deepak Jadhav. 25 District Secretaries and Circle office bearers took part in thread bare discussions for a whole day upto 10 pm. Based on the discussion A memorandum consisting of major issues like wage revision, 4G/ 5G, CGA appointments, new recruitment, deterioration of services due to large scale contractorisation, implementation of CVC guidelines to prevent corruption etc was prepared and it was unanimously decided to hand over this to all MPs in Maharashtra circle. On 26th Feb a well attended open session was organised in a very grand manner under the presidentship of Com. C. G. Jagtap, circle president. General Secretary Com C Sing, a veteran proletarian leader and genius poet from Ahmednagar district Com K W Shirsath, DGM, Shri Rashinkar were the chief guests. At the outset circle secretary Com Ranjan Dani delivered introductory speech in which he has congratulated activists and workers for their support to NFTE in getting recognition. The desire of employees for 3rd PRC, 4G / 5 G and increasing stress on workers causing destruction of “work life balance” was focused by him. General Secretary Com. C. Singh explained all burning issues in his 90 minutes firy and satirical speech which was reciprocated by the audience with big hands, and inspiring slogans. He has explained the importance of PSUs in the development of society and nation in detail & recalled the fighting spirit and visionary tradition of NFTE before and after Independence. NFTE has the only wisdom to break any ice in any situation whatsoever adverse it may be, he underlined. Protection of Govt pension after corporatisation was a glaring example, he added. After elaborating the details about present status of wage revision, he told that an adamant attitude of management and lack of wisdom in responsible leaders creating a hurdle in the achievement. However we are bound to get third PRC and for getting it broad based Unity with collective approach is being built up. NFTE will be at forefront to any struggle to get the legitimate rights of workers, he promised. At last he appealed to entire workers not to fell victim to any divisive propaganda being done by ruling class along the lines of caste, religion, language, culture etc. To maintain and build a strong workers Unity in real sense, a proletarian consciousness must be developed and leadership needs to eliminate their Egos in the interest of BSNL and employees, he told. Com Shirsath opined that during present days rightist politics is at its peak and it is mainly responsible for all miseries, agonies of the workers and people at large and is creating widespread unrest among the different sections of society including organised/ un organised workers. Due to this situation, pendulum is bound to shift to other end, he added. Two poems written by him were read by circle secretary and his books of poems were purchased enthusiastically by our comrades.

Regarding a burning issue of 3rd PRC he recalled different initiatives taken by NFTE started through All India Hunger strike on 3July 2017 & other joint agitations thereafter. He further explained the wrong motive of the management to confine wage revision merely to formation of new pay scales only. For implementation of 3rd PRC & it’s benefits to all existing staff, fitment formula is equally important for which mangmnt adopting negative approach, he added. Also justifiable reform in NE-9 pay scale is also of utmost relevance as regard to young engineers in BSNL & NFTE is committed to bring receptive change in N-9 scale, he assured. He also informed about joint efforts of recognised unions & warned the management not to deprive the employees from their legitimate right of PRC & disrupt the industrial peace which no one of us would like to afford during revival phase of the company. On 23rd January all non executive unions are to meet & discuss further course of action that may include serious & effective nationwide agitation to get 3rd PRC to BSNL employees, he informed. Circle secretary Com Ranjan Dani, Circle president Com C G Jagtap & Circle Secretary of AIBSNLPWA com Narendran also addressed the gathering.

13-01-2023 : Deadlock in the Wage Negotiations - NFTE (BSNL) and BSNLEU write joint letter to the CMD BSNL, demanding his intervention.
Com.Chandeswar Singh, GS, NFTE (BSNL) and Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, BSNLEU have written a joint letter to the CMD BSNL regarding Wage Negotiation. The following points are mentioned in the letter.
The Wage Negotiations of the Non-Executives is in a deadlock, due to the following reasons:-
(1) The new Pay Scales of the
Non-Executives are already finalised in the Wage Negotiating Committee meeting held on 27-07-2018. But, now, the Management wants to cut down the minimum and maximum of those Pay Scales, in the name of reducing the company’s expenditure on Pension Contribution. The 3rd PRC has already given the Pay Scales of the Executives. BSNL Management has no power to cut down those Pay Scales. Then, why the Management wants to cut down the Pay Scales of the Non-Executives alone?
(2) The Management says that, they do not want to sign the Wage Agreement now, but only want to finalise the Pay Scales of the Non-Executives and send them to the DoT. This is not acceptable to us.
(3) The Management says that, the Allowances cannot be revised now. Allowances of the employees are not revised since the formation of BSNL. Hence revision of Allowances must be done.
Both the General Secretaries of BSNLEU and NFTE BSNL have demanded the intervention of the CMD BSNL to resolve the deadlock.
