  01-12-2016 : Comrades, Let us start preparations for success for one day total strike on 15-12-2016, against the move to form subsidiary tower company by the Govt. At present BSNL is having 65,000 towers. We have seen yesterday in news papers, that BSNL installed 25,000 towers to improve connectivity and higher revenue in mobile segment reportedly increased. Govt systematically/calculatedly planning to take away all towers from BSNL to form a Subsidiary Tower Company. And also telling that the proposed Tower Company will be run by BSNL officers and staff. If it is so, what is the necessary to form a separate Subsidiary Tower Company?. It is nothing but to close the entity. At present our staff are maintaining the towers without any trouble in the country from Kashmir to Kanyakumary. Earlier, we unitedly stopped the proposal of VRS, disinvestment etc in BSNL. Now, all the union/associations in BSNL are opposing the move of Government to form Subsidiary Tower Company, which is jeopardy to the future of BSNL and employees. So, we request you all to make the strike 100% success on 15-12-2016.

  13-08-2016 : Sarcasm on Dharna:- G.S. BSNLEU as usual has passed sarcastic comment that Dharna organized by National Forum of BSNL workers at Corporate office has been only a Sample. He should understand that we don’t import employees from neighbuoring circles unlike him for massive Dharna in which even Executives are called. NFTE has secured more votes than BSNLEU in corporate office. However, Comment has not come as a surprise to us. In year 2004 struggle when late Coms Jagan, Vichare and Kohli were on indefinite fast to protect future (Pension) of employees it was termed as “Drama”. G.S. BSNLEU on one hand is making frantic efforts to finish NFTE and on other hand wants unity forgetting, accusations, allegations and unity cannot go together. He continues to talk parrot like that NFTE agreed for one/two digit PLI despite rebuff by CMD BSNL clearly stating there was no agreement. How we can keep quiet over his continued baseless comments on PLI. NFTE is capable in protecting the interests of employees and sermons are unwarranted.

But fact remains that due to sustained persuation of NFTE the management first time agreed to pay the PLI for year 2014-15. Accordingly the meeting was fixed for 30th March, 2016 for the purpose. The official side placed a formula in accordance with which the amount was coming in neither one nor in two digits but beyond this. Despite this no agreement could be arrived at between NFTE and the management side. The BSNL HQR letter No.-BSNL/7-2/SR/2016 dt-06-07-2016 is proof of that. The NFTE’s stand is vindicated and it needs no further dilation form our side. We will be happy in case employees get one month salary Rs.4500/- as PLI. However, it should be noted that baseless accusations and abuses do harm unity including functional one. NFTE will continue to discharge it’s all responsibilities in the interest of employees. Sermon is not needed form such quarter which hurled abuses and accusations.

Even they had not participated in the struggle of 6th to 8th September, 2000. The NFTE has never agreed to disinvestment or privitisation. It is BSNLEU wild allegations BSNLEU was opposed to FDI in Telecom Sector. What happened to that. The UPA Govt brought FDI in Telecom during the period CPM was supporting the Govt.

  27-04-2016 : Allegations baseless and unfounded:- The leaders of BSNLEU are making baseless and unfounded allegations that the NFTE agreed and accepted the formation of BSNL. It is far from truth and reality. The NDA Govt took Cabinet decision to form BSNL as per their election manifesto. Even the Parliamentary Committee, chaired by Shri Somnath Chatterjee recommended for the corporatarisation. The NFTE orgainsed 3 days historic strike with the cooperation of FNTO and BTEF and secured job and Govt pension guarantees from the Govt which are unparallel. The propagandists were anxious and eager to form industrial union and assembled quickly at Vishakhapatnam to form BSNLEU instead of protecting the employees. The “BBNL” (Bharat Broad Band Nigam Limited) has been formed in 2012. Who formed this PSU?. A separate Tower Company has been formed in the BSNL. Who has formed the third PSU i.e. Tower Company?. Govt is the owner of BSNL, BBNL and Tower Company and these have been formed only by Govt. The NFTE’s efforts had been to protect the interest of employees

The NFTE promised change in year 2013 during last i.e. 6th verification for change after getting recognized. As a matter of fact the NFTE vide letter No.-TF-53, dt-16-03-2012 sent proposal for change of designation. In this we proposed junior engineer designation for TTA. At that time the then recognized union, BSNLEU, was insisting for associate engineer designation to TTA. It was then widely talked in no circumstance JE designation will be conferred on TTA. NFTE after recognition persued it vigorously and ceaselessly cited example that in Govt Sector as well as in some PSUs Diploma Holders are designated as Junior Engineer.

They were not calling him even as Comrade. Their leaders at the time of second wage revision called NFTE –FNTO leaders as agents of Management and Govt. The second wage revision bought loss to employees (TTAs etc) in salary. Agreement had been on 68.8% instead of 78.2% IDA, HRA loss etc. The employees couldnot get PLI due to hide and seek game of BSNLEU. They launched malicious and baseless propaganda against NFTE specially President by passing decency and decorum. Abuse and disinformation are their culture.
