No merger of Kolkata with West Bengal and Tamil with Chennai Telephones.

Some time ago, the Corporate Office issued a letter in connection with the merger of four circles. In that letter, it had been mentioned that a Committee had been formed to look into the merger of Kolkata circle with West Bengal circle and Tamil Nadu circle with Chennai Telephones circle. At that time, BSNLEU has written letter to the Management stating that, no unilateral action should be taken on this issue, without consulting the Recognised Unions. On 08.10.2024, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, discussed this issue with Ms. Anita Johri, PGM (Restg. & WSI). It was categorically replied by the PGM (Restg. & WSI) that, it was an old issue and presently there was no proposal to merge the circles as mentioned above.
