As all comrades are aware that, the CHQ seriously took up the case against the transfer of Com.Anand Narayan Singh, District Secretary, BSNLEU, Vadodara, with the CMD BSNL. Earlier, the Corporate Office kept the transfer order under abeyance till 30.09.2023. However, the CHQ BSNLEU again discussed the matter with the CMD BSNL and insisted for cancellation of the transfer order. The Corporate Office has again issued letter today, keeping the transfer order under abeyance, until 31.03.2024.  Copy of the Corporate Office letter is endorsed to the General Secretary, BSNLEU.

Once, while addressing the Parliament, the former Prime Minister, Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee famously gave the definition for democracy. He told that “the right to dissent is the essence of democracy”.  It means, in a democracy, the citizens should have the right to criticise and protest against the policies of the Government. However, the present government does not allow any criticism. It crushes all the voices of dissent. The mainstream media is blindly supporting the government, either due to fear or for favour. Still, the government does not want to allow even a single voice of dissent. The Editor-in-Chief of News Click, Prabir Purkayastha, has been arrested. All that the News Click has done is criticising “the pro-corporate and anti-people” policies of the government. Today, news has come that, the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi has given sanction for the prosecution of reputed writer, Arundhati Roy, for criticising the government in a public event. At the same time, the government has not taken any action against Adani, who has reportedly cheated the people and looted thousands of crores of rupees. All these are nothing but murder of democracy. Trade Union movement cannot function when even basic democratic rights do not exist. BSNLEU expresses it’s strong protest over this murder of democracy.

ओए स्तर पर जिला यूनियनों का कामकाज और लोकल काउंसिलों का गठन - महासचिव ने एक बार फिर प्रिंसिपल जनरल मैनेजर (एसआर) के साथ चर्चा की।

BSNLEU ओए स्तर पर जिला यूनियनों की मान्यता और लोकल काउंसिलों के गठन के लिए प्रबंधन पर लगातार दबाव बना रहा है। हाल ही में हुई नेशनल काउंसिल की 39वीं बैठक में भी यह मुद्दा उठाया गया था। हालांकि, कॉरपोरेट कार्यालय ने अब तक सर्किलों को कोई पत्र जारी नहीं किया है. कल, साथी पी. अभिमन्यु, महासचिव ने एक बार फिर इस मुद्दे को सुश्री अनीता जौहरी, प्रिंसिपल जनरल मैनेजर (एसआर) के सामने उठाया। गुजरात सर्कल पर एक विशेष पत्र प्रिंसिपल जनरल मैनेजर (एसआर) को दिया गया था। महासचिव ने मांग की कि, कॉरपोरेट कार्यालय तुरंत सर्किलों को आवश्यक दिशानिर्देश जारी करे। प्रिंसिपल जनरल मैनेजर (एसआर) ने आवश्यक कार्रवाई करने का आश्वासन दिया।

BSNLEU is continuously pressing on the Management for the recognition of the district unions at the OA level, and also for the formation of Local Councils. This issue was taken up in the recently held 39th meeting of the National Council also. However, the Corporate Office has not issued any letter to the circles so far. Yesterday, Com. P.Abhimanyu,GS, once again raised this issue with Ms.Anita Johri, PGM(SR). A specific letter on Gujarat circle was given to the PGM(SR). The General Secretary demanded that, the Corporate Office should immediately issue necessary guideline to the circles. The PGM(SR) assured to do the needful.
