BSNLEU has already reported on the website on 05.06.2023, regarding the provocative instruction issued by the Corporate Office, stating that the Non-Executives have to submit their options online, for change of Union membership. On the very same day, BSNLEU wrote letter to the CMD BSNL, strongly recording it’s protest on this matter. BSNLEU has clearly pointed out that, a good section of the Non-Executives are not familiar with computer operations. Hence, the decision of the Corporate Office that, options should be submitted online, can be misused by unscrupulous elements. We understand that, the CMD BSNL has immediately intervened on this matter. As a result, the Corporate Office has withdrawn it’s instruction that, options should be submitted online. As per the modified letter issued by the Corporate Office yesterday, the Non-Executives can submit their options, by filling up the form. BSNLEU sincerely thanks the CMD BSNL for his immediate intervention. At the same time, BSNLEU wishes to warn Corporate Management that, taking such arbitrary decisions, without consulting the Recognised Trade Unions, will only spoil the industrial peace prevailing in the Company.

BSNLEU has written a letter to the CMD BSNL today, strongly protesting against the decision of the Management, forcing the Non-Executives to submit their option to change union membership, through online. In its letter, BSNLEU has complained that, this decision has been taken by the Management, without consulting the Recognised trade unions of the Non-Executives. This only shows the scant regard that the Management is having for the Recognised trade unions of the Non-Executives, BSNLEU has stated in it’s letter. BSNLEU has requested the CMD BSNL to keep this letter under abeyance, pending and to hold discussion with the Recognised trade unions of the Non-Executives.
