In it’s letter dated 21.02.2023, addressed to the Secretary, Telecom and the CMD BSNL, the Joint Forum of Non-Executive Unions and Associations of BSNL has made the following points clear, on the merger of MTNL with BSNL.

1. MTNL is listed in the share market. It should be delisted before merger with BSNL. Merger of MTNL with BSNL should not be the backdoor method to start disinvestment in BSNL.
2. MTNL is having a liability of around Rs.30,000 crore. This liability should be taken over by the government and should not be loaded on BSNL.
3. MTNL’s networks are in a bad shape. The amount required to restore MTNL’s networks at Delhi and Mumbai, should be fully borne by the government.

BSNLEU is in total agreement with the above views of the Joint Forum. Hence, BSNLEU will individually or collectively, insist upon the above mentioned views regarding merger of MTNL with BSNL.
