Take full preparations for lunch hour demonstration on 8th January 2026.

All Circles, Districts and Business Areas are requested to take full and serious preparations for the lunch hour demonstration on 8^th January, 2026 and ensure its effective implementation throughout the country. Leaders at all levels are advised to coordinate and hold discussions with leaders of other unions to ensure unity and maximum participation in the programme. It may be noted that 8^th January, 2026 completes three months since the Wage Agreement was signed between the BSNL Management and the Recognised Unions. During this period, around ten Management Committee and Board meetings have already been held. However, the Management has not yet taken up the approval of the Wage Agreement, leading to widespread dissatisfaction among employees. As part of the preparations, Circles/Districts/BAs are requested to print banners, posters and placards locally, highlighting the burning issues of the workers, particularly the inordinate delay in Wage Agreement approval. Conduct AUAB meetings at District / BA / Circle level to discuss and finalise the programme. Ensure maximum participation, unity and discipline during the demonstration. Let us ensure strong mobilisation and united participation to make the Lunch Hour Demonstration on 8th January 2026 a grand success.
