AUAB writes to CMD BSNL, against imposition of Break-in-service, under FR 17A.

BSNL Management is contemplating to issue break-in-service, under FR 17A, for participation in the 3 day strike. AUAB has written to the CMD BSNL, opposing this move. The AUAB has stated that, FR 17A is not part of BSNL CRA Rules, and hence break- in -service under FR 17A cannot be imposed on BSNL employees.
