CHQ has expressed serious resentment over the continued indifferent attitude of the BSNL Management in settling long-pending staff issues. Despite repeated representations by circle managements and discussions by union leaders at the Corporate Office, several burning issues remain unresolved. On 16.01.2026, Com. Animesh Mitra, General Secretary, and Com. Ashwin Kumar, AGS, met Shri Rajiv Kumar Kaushik, PGM (SR) and highlighted key grievances, including extension of deputation period under Rule-9, promotion of sports personnel, EPF deduction from the date of appointment, Kashmir Valley Special Allowance, DA payment to casual labourers, budget curtailment and other pending issues. The General Secretary also expressed concern over the non-convening of the National Council meeting since January 2025. After hearing the grievances, the PGM (SR) assured that efforts would be made to convene the National Council or a Formal meeting at the earliest to resolve the pending issues.

In the month of December 2025, the BSNL Corporate Office issued an order curtailing the budget allotment for the remaining months of the current financial year. Through this order, the Management has specifically targeted those sections where contract workers have been continuously performing duties for a long time, such as the Electrical Wing, Housekeeping, and Security Services. After the introduction of the Service Level Agreement (SLA), the strength of contract workers had already been substantially reduced, and the remaining workers are being paid meagre wages. Despite this, the issuance of the above-mentioned order has once again prompted the Circle-level Managements to initiate further retrenchment of contract workers. In several circles, the BSNL Casual Contract Workers Federation (BSNLCCWF) and BSNLEU have taken up this issue very seriously and have launched agitational programmes against the retrenchment of contract workers. In this connection, Com.Animesh Mitra, General Secretary, BSNLEU, met Shri P. D. Chiraniya, PGM (CBB) and Shri Rajeev Soni, CGM (Electrical) and drew their attention to the ongoing agitational programmes in the Electrical Wings of West Bengal and CTD Circles. He demanded immediate intervention by the Corporate Office to stop the retrenchment of contract workers and to protect their livelihood.
