Organise massive dharnas tomorrow, demanding settlement of Wage Revision, Pension Revision, 4G / 5G and problems of contract and casual workers..

Thousands of Non-Executives have lost many of their increments due to stagnation and this problem has arisen due to non-settlement of Wage Revision. The government has not settled Pension Revision which has directly hit the livelihood of lakhs of retired employees of BSNL. After having pushed BSNL into loss, through it’s pro-private policies, government is telling that Wage Revision and Pension Revision are not settled due to the poor financial condition of BSNL. BSNLEU is trying to sign the Wage Revision agreement as early as possible. However, the Management has created road-block by going back from the agreement reached on the new pay scales of the Non-Executives. Lakhs of new customers are migrating to BSNL. But, BSNL is unable to provide good quality voice and data service to them due to the inordinate delay in BSNL’s 4G & 5G launchings. Minimum wage, EPF and ESI are not implemented for the contract workers. But, BSNL Management, being the Principal Employer of the contact workers, is shirking its responsibility. Casual labourers are being denied of their wages based on 7^th CPC pay scale.  The Coordination Committee of BSNLEU, AIBDPA and BSNLCCWF has called on the employees, pensioners, contract and casual workers to organise massive dharnas throughout the country tomorrow the 27.11.2024, demanding immediate settlement of the above mentioned issues. CHQ requests the circle and district unions to take all out efforts to make the dharna a huge success.
