Earlier this issue was raised through National Council and according to the decision of council, such cases were sent to the DOT for issuance of Presidential order but it was denied by the DOT. We were mounting pressure upon
the BSNL management for redressal of the issue as the decision of DOT was beyond natural justice.
Today while G.S. was discussing the issue of Presidential order with Sr. GM(Estt) C.O. New Delhi. It was reported by him that again this issue has been sent to DOT by the Corporate office for favourable decision.
Left out presidential order cases of Bihar Circle out of seven cases. The documents for five were found proper and those cases have been sent to DOT for approval. In respect of two cases again the letter has been sent to Bihar Circle for its further submission with proper details.

He has whole heartedly appreciated the efforts & hard work done by the workforce due to which BSNL could maintain its annual revenue at about 17,500 Cr. during Pandemic period also. Even in the absence of 4G we could sustain our mobile market share is a matter of pride, he added. More than one lakh FTTH connections are provided during this pandemic is another example of glorious performance of the company, he told. As per unaudited account of 20-21 we earned 1350 Cr operating profit & became EBITA positive is a good sign.

Third Webinar on " Labour Codes " was organised on 30th May 2021.
Renowned trade union leader & economist Com. Ajeet Abhyankar was main speaker. General secretary Com. C. Singh presided.
Organiser & circle secretary Com. Ranjan Dani underlined the historical role played by com. OPG in Telecom Trade union movement & recalled milestones of his immemorable work like leading of Nationwide strikes in 1960, 1968 for minimum wages & DAs, introduction of time bound promotion scheme, bonus, Regularisation of lakhs of casual labours, visionary restructuring of staff to cope up with changing technology along with historical agreement for protection of job, pension & BSNL after corporatization.
Com. Ajeet Abhyankar, starting with elaboration of present socio economic background in the country categorically told that economy is on the verge of collapse & unemployment is at its peak due to disastrous policies of Modi govt. Further, while explaining the nature of change in labour laws & it's adverse impact on workers, he told that the argument of govt to bring ease in doing business, to attract more finance capital for development thereby creation of more jobs is totally wrong & merely an eyewash. Actually workers will lose their job protection & permanent jobs will be replaced through fix term employment thereby making formation of unions more difficult. Contractorisarion of jobs will be a ground reality following hire & fire system easily available for corporate world. Govt regulation will gradually be replaced by own rules & regulations of factory owners. Exploitation of workers will reach to new inhuman level & justice merely remain on paper. This hidden agenda of govt behind changes in labour Laws is to dismantle labour movement, suppress human rights & help corporates to increase their profits, he exposed through his booklet on the subject. To retaliate these retrograde policies of central govt he appealed to explain real intention of change in labour laws to every worker & try to build broad based unity to defeat anti worker policies of the govt. Trade union movement also needs to work shoulder in shoulder with ongoing farmers movement in the country to bring victory over a mighty corporate regime working at the centre. He also appreciated the initiative taken by NFTE, M.H. circle to awaken workers in BSNL regarding the challenges.
G.S. Com. C. Singh while encouraging Maharashtra circle Comrades for organising lecture series, appealed to carry the message & outcome of the lectures to each & every worker through news papers, social media, meetings etc & be prepared for nation wide struggle for the revival of BSNL & protection of workers rights like Release of DA, PRC, New promotion policy, compassionate appointments, superannuation benefits, conducting exams for promotions & suitable medical facilities etc.
Senior Com. Sunanda Pardeshi gave vote of thanks.
Circle secretaries Com. Chilamwarji, Com. Chobeji, Com. Shantanu & many district Secretaries, circle office bearers, trade union activists were among prominent presence.

24-05-2021 : Maharashtra Circle NFTE organises a lecture series on Com. O.P.Gupta Ji birth centenary:-
The 2nd webinar of the series was organised on 23. May 2021.
AITUC General secretary Com. Amarjeet Kaur addressed nearly for three hours. Com. C. Sing, general secretary, NFTE presided.
Many leaders across the nation including Circle secretaries Com. Chilamwar Ji, Com. Chobeji, Com. Soniji attended.
Com. Bandi, president M.H. circle gave vote of thanks.
The entire history of working class in India & across the globe was made alive by
Com. Amarjeet in her most inspiring speech. She has elaborated the relationship between labour movement & Indian freedom movement in depth. The resolution of total independence was passed in AITUC conference in 1921 much before it was put forth by Indian freedom movement, she added. Democratic rights, freedom of expression, workers protection, right to organisation were enshrined in Indian Constitution as an achievement of protracted struggles of working class for the causes, she explained. She also underlined the importance of Marxist thoughts as a guiding principle of unity & struggle against the exploitative capitalist system. The impact of Russian Revolution on labour movement was also nicely explained. While addressing the present situation of workers under present regime at the centre, she has cleared that privatisation of PSUs, Pro corporate changes in labour laws, agricultural reforms are the steps towards dismantling of welfare nature of the state & country is being pushed towards anarchy. The tragic incidences of covid deaths in the absence of robust health system & proper planning are the shame on the rulers of this country. Challenges today are manifold & workers are to be pushed back to colonial days through new labour laws. To concentrate the wealth & public property in the hands of very few, the democratic rights are also being suppressed. Right to strike being made infructuous, Right to organise more difficult. To overcome the present crisis & to defeat anti labour, anti people policies of the govt there is no alternative to broad based unity irrespective of party politics. Egos, petty quarrels, sectarian views, selfish thinking, tendency to ridicule our colleagues are the real hurdles in unity & they are to be vigioursly sorted out. Self introspection, commitment towards unorganized & fearless struggles for the cause of downtrodden may only be the path to victory & we have to prepare ourselves for this noble cause, she appealed.
Her entire speech was really an eye opener as described by General Secretary Com. C. Singh ji also assured to walk on the path of com. O. P. Gupta to protect BSNL & it's workers at any cost.
All participants felt enriched & inspired by her thought-provoking address in today's webinar...!

20-05-2021 : The BSNL COVID FUND (BCF) POLICY:-
Dear comrades the instruction on implementation of the BSNL covid fund has been issued vide corporate office letter N0-25-1/2021 BSNL(WL)/Admin dated 20th may 2021.
This policy is based on employees contribution with the equal share by the company.
This is an occasion to help the family of our own comrades who lost their lives due to effect of covid- 19 pandemic. We have contributed one day salary several times to the Govt to meet the expenditure on various natural disaster. This time we have got a chance to stand to serve our own families ,hence it is requested to all our circle ,BA and SSA leaders to ensure hundred percent contribution for the holy couse.
It will also not be out of place to note that the NFTE proposal has been accepted and all together supported it.
At other hand all the District secretaries should take responsibility to collect the actual figure of death due to covid of his area of jurisdiction and submit it to circle union.
All circle secretaries should compile the total figure of the circle and compare with the official figure with names of the deceased employees.
The policy will cover the death of employees due to covid with effect from 1st April 2020 .We believe that our comrades will be at front line to make total success of this policy and we should ensure that not a single case of covid victim is left.
With warm greetings.

We are very much thankful to all of you, for participating in call of twitter campaign. Our twitter campaign has got a grand success with a trending No-41 in India with 70,737 tweets.

In present scenario these are the weapons to mount pressure upon the authorities .
It is possible for all as now a days all most all are having a smart phone in their hands and after a little bit learning one can be able to take part in such campaign.
We feel that a part of our comrades have twitted and our trend reached at No,-41.At a point of time it got 35 position but it slides and at last we stand at trend No-41.
It is also a very high score and we have raised our issue of payment of salary very strongly.

17-05-2021 : World Telecommunication day:- Each year on 17th May world telecom day is absorbed throughout the world.
In our country we can remember the Telecom revolution was initiated by late Smt. Indira Gandhi the then Prime minister of India and it was brought at ground by late sri Rajeev Gandhi.
Today a foot path vegetable sellers are also using voice and data facility through technological development in Telecom area.
Though the Govt of India played a very unpleasant role with telecom employees by converting the Dept of Telecom into a public sector in 2000.
In 2020 half of the employees sent out through VRS and half are suffering and suffocating in want of payment of salary on time.
But the day absorbed throughout the world is very relevant for the people as the Telecom is playing a vital role in development of social and economical status of people.
On this occasion on behalf of our CHQ we extend a very warm greetings to all telecom workers, Telecom service users and urge upon the Government to provide 4G spectrum to BSNL to continue it's breathing .

29-04-2021 : Observe Historic May day...... : Dear comrades ,we observe may day on 1 st may each year since 1886 the day of great struggle of working people of the world. Due to the covid-19 pandemic this time we observe may day in different formats.
We should arrange our union flag hosting at union offices that too with maintaining social distance and using proper mask. The importance of may day is more relevant at present scenario, when lacs of workers have lossed their jobs.
The working class is much victim of present rulers of the country. In our BSNL even after reduction of 50% staff through so called VRS the existing staff are not getting their salary on time. The workers are left on the mercy of God as they are not getting safety solutions from management to save their lives while working in the field area.
Contiguously death reports are coming due to covid-19 but the management is maintaining silence. The department of post has announced out of turn CGA for the dependent of covid victims, but BSNL is not lifting the ban imposed on CGA. Most of our communications are in reverted.
In this situation we have to remember our tradition of fighting for the welfare of workers. Hence kindly observe 1st may as labour day and pay homage to the Myteirs and take pledge to fight against the anti workers policy of the Govt.
With may day greetings.

(1) Medical claims of retired personnel - The medical claims of retired personnel have not been settled for the years 2019-2020 and 2020-2021. There are some SSAs/Circles where even the claims of year 2018-19 have also not been settled.
(2) The DOT absorbees in BSNL are entitled for Govt Pension after their retirement. Such employees should be given an option to switch over CGHS while in service itself. It will reduce the financial burden of the Company upto some extent.
(3) Renting policy – The policy has been evolved to generate the revenue for the PSU but certainly not to loose. The policy has resulted in surrender of Deptl quarters in huge number due to exorbitant rent. There will be damages in the quarters in the quarters if these remain vacant for long.

It is the day on which the great constitution of India was implemented with a pledge to rule the country within and as per the provisions provided in the constitution and the India was declared a democratic country on the same day of 1950.
No doubt our democracy is wonderful and unique one which has been followed by others country also and it is appreciated in the whole world.
It is special significant of our democracy that even after completing 74 years of Independence our country is united and intact .
It is a special beauty of our country that the people of several colours, casts, creeds and religion live together with full trust to each other but from last few years some section of the population with vested interest have started dilution of the constitutional rights of the people specially of farmers and workers.
A big population of nation is on struggle and several are compelled to live in fear.
So we the workers should be more vigilant and careful as the Woking people of country had contributed a lot and lost their lives to get freedom for the nation.
We should salute our national flag on the day and take a pledge to protect the constitution and keep the unity of all section of peoples intact.
LONG LIVE INDIAN REPUBLIC.

He also explained the pro corporate nature of labour law reforms & appealed the workers to unite & fight to protect their hard-won rights of collective bargaining, strike & job security. Eradication of permanent jobs & rapid increase in contract workers is a product of the policies of present NDA Govt & these policies Will lead the workers to slavery. Privatisation policy of important public sector units which include defence, oil, coal, Railway, banking, insurance, Telecom will ruin the constitutional values of equality, social justice & create horrible economic disparities in the society.

31-12-2020 : On the eve of last day of 2020 when we reviewed back to say good bye to 2020 a very bitter taste is felt.
The whole 2020 was the curse for the common people in general and for working class and farmers in particular.
The whole human being were facing the attack of COVID -19 one side and the other side working class and farmers were facing the attack of the Govt. in centre. The present Govt having absolute majority in parliament which used as tool to pass anti labourer and anti farmers bill in house and even after continuous struggles by suffering class of people the power is playing a role of dumb and deaf. The Niti Ayog continued it's agenda of dismantling the central public sector Enterprises.
All the sectors whether it is service provider or productive unites under the Govt control are about to sale or sink..
We the BSNL workers have been cheated by the Govt.in name of revival of the company. More than 78000 thousands executives and non executives were sent out from compony through VRS in Jan2020, without any proper road map to run the services after reduction of a large human resources and the remaining serving employees are not getting even their salary on time ,what to say about other welfare measures
The IDA has been frozen for entire CPSE employees wef 01.10.2020 which is beyond norms rather it is a shameless attack of the Govt on working people. The order of freezing IDA has been quashed by honourable high courts.
Thus we experienced a very grim and critical situation in the 2020..
Now with a better hope and full confidence we have to move forward to welcome the new year 2021 which appear at zero hours of tonight.
We on behalf of our central head quarters welcome all of our members, well wishers, all the executives officers of the management and entire people of the country to come forward and take pledge to change the situation of the nation where everyone feel happy and get prosperity..
With a warmest greetings. WISHING YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021.

We the followers of Com. Gupta are eye witness of his visionary approach which we have seen at the time of implementation of VRS in BSNL. The Govt was bound to pay pension and other pensionery benefits alongwith ex-gratia which became possible only due to agreement with the Central Govt under the leadership of Com. Gupta Ji at the time of Corporatisation of DOT/DTS. All our Circle/District Branches are requested to kindly hold meeting/seminar, on 6th January, 2021 and pay respectful homage to Com. Gupta and brief the history of NFPTE/NFTE among workers.

Demanding immediate launching of 4G services by BSNL and its Revival.
This is an appeal to all the employees of BSNL to massively participate and support AUAB Twitter Campaign for the immediate launching of 4G service by BSNL and also for BSNL Revival.
As per the Revival plan approved by the Union Cabinet, BSNL 4G services should have been launched by this time. But, unfortunately, due to various reasons best known to BSNL Management and the DoT, BSNL 4G launching is getting terribly delayed. The sufferers due to this delay, are the citizens of India especially the peoples in rural areas, where still the internet is not reached.
Furthermore, the delay is adversely affecting the Revenue generation of BSNL. As the employee of BSNL this is our bread and butter. Hence we appeal to you all to massively participate in the twitter campaign on 10.08.2020, between 11:00 hrs to 13:00 hrs and make it big success.
Kindly Tweet with hashtag #BSNL4GNow.

06-07-2020 : I, on behalf of CHQ, extend my best wishes to one and all. In the prevailing pandemic COVID19 situation, hope all BSNL fraternity and their family are safe and keeping good health.
Due to sudden lock down announced during MARCH 2020, we all the Head Quarters office bearers were out of Delhi. We were in touch with Corporate office and resolving the pressing issues and conveying them to Circle Secretaries and other All India Office bearers through various channels of communication.
However we could not update our website from remote due to the inherent technical design and limitation of our website. The website developer also could not be reached for solution due to COVID issue. As the Chief Executive I take the responsibility for the short coming in operationalizing the website. Now that the technical issue has been resolved and the site will get updated with latest news regularly.
Dear Comrades, leaders at all level stood behind the organization during this difficult time and carry forwarded all the messages of CHQ to our members through their own channel. Our President Com Islam Ji regularly updated all our CHQ view and also we raised all important issues through mail with Management.
Com A. Rajmouli our All India Treasurer is in constant touch with me and helped in the functioning of CHQ.
I wish to convey all our members, fraternal leaders, well-wishers, visitors of our website that we will keep up the tradition of NFTE and work hard for the welfare and betterment of BSNL Employees and strive hard to press the Government of India to provide all strategic support for the growth of our beloved BSNL....G.S.
