Increasing monthly subscription of BSNLEU – CHQ fervently appeals to all the members to extend their fullest cooperation and support.

In the All India Conference of BSNLEU, held at Mysuru, decision was taken to increase the monthly subscription of BSNLEU from Rs.45/- to Rs.70/-.

This issue was discussed in the CEC meeting held at Hyderabad and it was unanimously decided to implement the decision of the All India Conference to increase the monthly subscription of BSNLEU, from Rs.45/- to Rs.70/-. The Corporate Office has issued letter today, to increase the monthly subscription. BSNLEU is taking up each and every problem of the employees and is fighting to defend their interests.

Severe restrictions imposed for getting temporary transfers – BSNLEU writes to the CMD BSNL conveying it’s strong objections.

The Corporate Office has issued letter on 27.08.2021, imposing severe restrictions on temporary transfers. This will seriously affect the young employees, who are posted in far away circles at the time of their initial appointment. Till recently, the Director (HR) was empowered to sanction temporary transfers for genuine cases. However, hereafter employees can get Temporary Transfers only on two grounds. One ground is for the employee to join with  husband / wife. The other is medical grounds. Under medical grounds, employees can get temporary transfer only in cases of serious ailments like cancer, kidney failure, etc. The employee will not get a temporary transfer even if his / her parents get heart attack. Further, in the case of accidents, temporary transfer will be granted only if the official sustains disability. And even in such cases, the certificate has to be issued by the CMO of the government hospital. Till recently, officials were getting temporary transfers up to 5 years. However, hereafter, temporary transfers will be granted only up to 2 years. The Management is not able to pay salary to the employees on the due date. Medical bills of the employees are pending for the past many years. Most of the employees are suffering from stagnation. The Management is not taking any action to redress such genuine grievances of the employees. However, Management wants to deny whatever little concessions the employees are getting presently. The BSNL Management wants to convert the employees into slaves. This should not be allowed. BSNLEU has written to the CMD BSNL, expressing it’s strong objections. All the unions and associations should come forward to oppose this arbitrary action of the Management.
