AUAB meeting held on 19.05.2026 – Sanchar Bhawan March rescheduled.

An emergent meeting of All Unions and Associations of BSNL (AUAB) was held on 19.05.2026 at the BSNLEU Office, Eastern Court, New Delhi, attended by General Secretaries and representatives of participating unions and associations. The meeting reviewed the delay in payment of enhanced IDA w.e.f. 01.01.2026. Though DPE has issued orders but formal approval from DoT is still pending. AUAB decided to continue preparations for the Human Chain protest on 20.05.2026 and pursue the matter with CMD BSNL and Director (HR) for payment of salary along with IDA arrears. Later, AUAB leaders also met Director (HR) and CMD BSNL on the issue. The proposed Sanchar Bhawan March on 12.06.2026 has been rescheduled. AUAB decided to organise a massive mobilisation programme during the Monsoon Session of Parliament for implementation of the 3rd PRC. AUAB will discuss the matter with the pensioners’ associations to make the mobilisation a grand success. The meeting also strongly condemned the alleged manhandling of Shri Vivek Jayant, JTO, Rajpipla, Gujarat Circle, by a TIP and the vandalisation of office premises, and demanded strict action from BSNL Management. The meeting further decided to take up certain pending HR-related issues with CMD BSNL.
