Non-remittance of LIC premium deducted from employee’s salary - Corporate Office writes eye-wash letter to CGMs.

The issue of non-remittance of LIC premium amount, deducted from the salaries of employees, is being repeatedly taken up with the CMD BSNL, by BSNLEU. A number of times, BSNLEU has discussed this with the CMD BSNL. A few days back also, BSNLEU has written to the CMD BSNL, citing that the LIC is demanding interest and GST thereon, for the belated premium payment. Yesterday, the Corporate Office has written to all the CGMs, calling for inputs. All know that, LIC premium was not remitted, only because the Corporate Office did not allot fund. But, now, the Corporate Office is questioning the CGMs, why LIC premium is not remitted? BSNLEU wants prompt action by the Management to settle this issue. Eye wash type of action will not help the employees.
