The families of contract and casual workers are in starvation - GS, BSNLEU, tells the Director (Finance) and demands immediate releasing of funds..

There is acute delay in the payment of wages of contract workers and casual labourers throughout the country. Wages are not paid to these workers for the past 4 months, due to the non-allotment of funds by the Corporate Office. BSNLEU has already drawn the attention of the Director (Finance) in this regard, by writing a letter. In continuation of this, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, met Shri S.K. Gupta, Director (Finance), today, and discussed the issue at length. The GS told the Director (Finance) that the families of contract and casual workers are in starvation and requested to do the needful immediately, by releasing funds to the circles. The Director (Finance) replied that he is sympathetic to the workers, but told that the Corporate Office is having acute shortage of funds. However, he assured to look into this issue and to do the needful.
