BSNL Unions and Associations approach MPs seeking relaxation of Affordability Clause for 3rd PRC Approval.

Leaders of the Unions and Associations of BSNL across various circles have intensified their efforts to secure the implementation of the 3^rd PRC for BSNL employees by approaching Members of Parliament and submitting memorandums. In the Telangana circle, AUAB leaders met Smt.Kavya, MP(Loksabha,) from Warangal, in Hyderabad and urged them to intervene with the Government of India to relax the affordability clause that is currently preventing the implementation of the 3rd PRC. Similarly, BSNL unions and associations in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad) submitted a memorandum to Hon’ble MP, Shri Kalyan Kale, explaining that BSNL employees have been denied wage revision for the past nine years due to the Union Cabinet’s condition linking pay revision in PSUs with company profitability. The delegation pointed out that BSNL’s financial losses are largely the result of government policies and requested relaxation of the profitability clause. In Mehsana, AUAB leaders also met Hon’ble MP Shri Haribhai Patel and submitted a memorandum seeking his intervention for early implementation of the 3rd PRC. The MPs assured the delegations that they would take up the matter with the concerned authorities and raise the issue at the appropriate level.
