Wage Agreement issue not included in Management Committee agenda – General Secretaries meet Director (HR) on 18.12.2025.

The Wage Agreement issue has not been included as an agenda item in the Management Committee meetings. Although the Management Committee has been meeting every week, the Wage Agreement issue has not been taken up for consideration for the past three months. Even in the last Management Committee meeting held yesterday, the issue did not figure in the agenda. On receiving this information, the leadership of the unions and associations met Dr. Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director (HR), on the evening of 18th December, and conveyed their strong resentment over the indifferent attitude of the BSNL Management in not placing the Wage Agreement issue before the Management Committee and the BSNL Board. In response, the Director (HR) immediately contacted the concerned officers to finalise the Management Committee note and directed that the matter be placed in the forthcoming Management Committee meeting. During the discussion, the issue of convening short-notice meetings with the General Secretaries and the settlement of the Tamil Nadu and Chennai Circle issues was also raised. The Director (HR) responded positively and assured that these issues would be considered in due course.
