As decided in the previous AUAB meeting, the AUAB submitted a memorandum to the CMD BSNL on 10th July 2026, strongly protesting the arbitrary decision of the BSNL Management to implement the Circle Restructuring through a Pilot Project in the Uttarakhand Circle. In the memorandum, the AUAB expressed its deep resentment over the so-called restructuring project and categorically demanded its immediate withdrawal. The AUAB cautioned the Management that the implementation of the project without addressing the concerns of the employees would invite strong opposition from the unions and associations. The memorandum further conveyed that, if the Management fails to withdraw the proposal immediately, the AUAB will organise nationwide demonstrations on 15th July, 2026 at all BA and CGM Offices across the country in protest against the unilateral decision.

An important meeting of the AUAB was held on 09.07.2026, at the SNEA office with the participation of the General Secretaries and representatives of the constituent unions and associations. The General Secretaries who were away from Delhi and the AUAB leaders from the Uttarakhand Circle joined the meeting virtually. The meeting decided to submit a memorandum to the CMD, BSNL, demanding the immediate withdrawal of the Uttarakhand Pilot Project, terming it a unilateral decision of the BSNL Management that would adversely affect BSNL services in the Uttarakhand Circle. It was also decided to organise nationwide lunch-hour demonstrations on 14th July, 2026, with employees wearing black badges in protest. Further programmes of action will be announced next week. Message from AUAB is enclosed herewith.

The CHQ has decided to merge the two monthly journals, Telecrusader (English) and BSNL Swar (Hindi), into a single publication. Accordingly, the new unified journal has been brought out from July 2026 onwards. This decision was discussed and endorsed at the Central Executive Committee meeting held at Vijayawada. In view of the financial constraints faced by CHQ, it has been decided to adopt a digital mode of circulation. The journal will be sent by CHQ every month for onward circulation to all members. The CEC has, therefore, directed all Circle and District Secretaries to create and maintain separate WhatsApp groups exclusively for journal circulation and ensure that every member receives the journal during the first week of each month. This decision of the CEC shall be implemented without fail. Let every member receive the BSNLEU journal regularly and strengthen our organisational communication.

The Central Executive Committee meeting of BSNLEU was successfully held at Vijayawada on 05th and 06th July, 2026. The meeting witnessed the enthusiastic participation of CHQ Office Bearers and Circle Secretaries. A total of 47 CEC members deliberated on several important organisational and policy issues during the two-day meeting. The discussions focused on Wage Revision, improvement of BSNL services, the New Non-Executive Promotion Policy (NNEPP), the 10th Membership Verification, revision of perks and allowances, 30% SAB, LICE, Rule-8 & 9 and other issues concerning BSNL employees. Based on the detailed deliberations, the house unanimously adopted the following resolutions on the second day of the CEC meeting:- 

1. The CEC meeting strongly condemns the undue delay by the DoT in approving the Wage Agreement signed in October 2025 and resolves to mobilise BSNL employees in large numbers for the March to Parliament on 07th August, 2026, as called by the Coordination Committee.

2. The CEC meeting expresses deep concern over the deterioration of BSNL's services and resolves to urge the BSNL Management, the DoT and Members of Parliament to take immediate remedial measures.

3. The CEC meeting strongly condemns the Management's attack on BSNL employees in the name of the Uttarakhand Pilot Project and demands the immediate rollback of the restructuring of the Uttarakhand Circle.

4. The CEC meeting strongly condemns the DoT's move to reduce the staff strength in BSNL and resolves to firmly oppose any proposal for a second VRS, as it will further weaken BSNL's workforce and adversely affect the quality of services.

5. The CEC meeting reiterates its demand that Membership Verification be conducted only through the Secret Ballot system and strongly condemns any attempt by the BSNL Management to conduct it through the check-off system or any other digital process.

6. The CEC meeting resolves to intensify the struggle for the implementation of the New Non-Executive Promotion Policy (NNEPP) and the revision of perks and allowances. The house strongly condemns the BSNL Management for not functioning of the Committee already constituted for this purpose. 
   

The CEC meeting strongly condemns the Government's move to recruit the CMD of BSNL from the open market or the corporate sector and demands the appointment of a regular CMD committed to strengthening the Company.

The BSNL Coordination Committee has issued its circular finalising the March to Parliament and other agitational programmes. The circular has been addressed to all Circle and District Secretaries of BSNLEU, AIBDPA and BSNLCCWF. Considering the gravity of the situation, all CEC members are requested to take immediate steps to communicate the decisions of the Coordination Committee at the grassroots level and ensure the successful implementation of the agitational programmes.
