Serious complaints are coming regarding the style of the functioning of the Sports Cell of the BSNL Corporate Office. Fair play is being denied and there is total lack of transparency in the functioning of the Sports Cell. For example, applications were called for, for the selection of coaches one year back. But, the eligible list is not announced yet. In the meanwhile, persons handpicked by the Sports Cell are being deputed as coaches, by passing the NIS accredited coaches. BSNLEU has written a letter to the PGM( Admin), BSNL CO on this matter today. We hope that, necessary action would be taken.

BSNLEU is repeatedly knocking the doors of the BSNL Corporate Office in the matter of formation of Local Councils at the OA level. Certain circles continue to violate the Corporate Office instructions on the matter. Recently, it has been brought to the notice of the CHQ that, Local Councils are not formed at all in Maharashtra and Gujarat circles. Hence, BSNLEU has once again written letter to the PGM(SR) today, requesting to ensure early formation of the Local Councils in these circles. 

As per the call of the World Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU) the International Action Day is observed by BSNLEU, throughout the country, yesterday the 3^rd October, 2024. This is the Foundation Day of the WFTU also. Even though, the CHQ has given call to organise International Action Day programme only in 8 cities, the programme has been observed in more number of places. The CHQ heartily congratulates all the circle and district unions which have organised the programme.

The CHQ is saddened to know that, Shri R.Chakkaraiappan, father of Com.S. Chellappa, AGS, has passed away at Coimbatore, today morning. He was 92 years old and has been under treatment in a hospital. The CHQ conveys it’s heartfelt condolences to Com.S. Chellappa, AGS and his family members.

As per the call of the WFTU, International Action Day programme was organised in Pune, by the Maharashtra circle union and the Pune district union. Apart from Pune, comrades from Mumbai, Kalyan, Raigad, Satara, Ahmednagar, Nagpur and Nanded districts also participated in this meeting. Around 300 comrades participated in this enthusiastic programme. A powerful demonstration was organised, focussing the demands of the WFTU, for International Action Day. Com.N.K. Nalawade, Vice President (CHQ), presided over the meeting and delivered his address. Com.P.Abhimanyu, General Secretary, addressed the meeting and elaborately spoke on the demands of the WFTU such as a decent living wage, 35 hours working week, social securities, healthcare, etc. The meeting was also addressed by Com.Yusuf Hussein, CS & AGS, BSNL Casual Contract Workers Federation, Com.Pushpatai Parate, AGS, AIBDPA, and Com.Ganesh Hinge, CS, BSNLEU, Maharashtra. The programme was conducted by Com.Ganesh Bhoj. Com.Vikas Kadam, delivered vote of thanks. 

As all the comrades are aware, BSNLEU is continuously taking efforts to implement Temporary Transfers of the Non-executives under Rule-9 of BSNL Transfer Policy. Especially, BSNLEU is insisting on approval of the Temporary Transfer of Non-Executives under spouse ground. BSNLEU is also pressurising the Management to remove the stringent conditions imposed by the erstwhile CMD BSNL, in the matter of Temporary Transfers. Under these circumstances, the Corporate Office has approved some Temporary Transfers in the JE cadre. BSNLEU will continue to take efforts for the approval of all the eligible cases, by way of relaxing the Rule-9.

The CEC meeting of BSNLEU was held at Kolkata on 25^th & 26^th September, 2024. CHQ has issued circular (no.20/2022-25 dated 03.10.2024), communicating the details and the decisions of the CEC meeting. All circle and district unions are requested to implement the decisions of the CEC meeting.
