The Sunday drama.

The GM(SR), BSNL Corporate Office, telephonically informed the GS, BSNLEU, at 10:00 hrs. yesterday, ie., on 28-10-2018 Sunday, that there would be a meeting between the Secretary, DoT and the representatives of the AUAB, at 10:30 hrs on 29-10-2018, to discuss the issues on which the AUAB has given call for agitation. However, once again the GM(SR), BSNL CO, contacted the GS,BSNLEU, at 13:30 hrs, and informed that, the Secretary, DoT, wanted to hold the meeting on 28-10-2018 itself and that,the meeting could not be organised due to the communication gap. Surprisingly, a letter was issued by the Corporate Office yesterday evening, stating that the meeting between the AUAB and the Secretary,DoT, could not take place on 28-10-2018, due to the non-availability of the AUAB leaders for the meeting. The DoT and the BSNL Management do not care to inform the AUAB leaders suffficiently in advance about the meeting. They want to hold the meeting by giving information to the AUAB leaders in the last minute. But, still, they want to make the AUAB leaders scape goats for the fiasco.
