भारतीय संसद पर तानाशाही पूर्ण हमला....

परसों, राज्यसभा में, बड़े जमींदारों और उनके कॉर्पोरेट मित्रों के हित साधने के लिए, विनाशकारी किसान विरोधी बिल लाया गया था। विरोधी दलों के सदस्यों द्वारा इसका पुरजोर तरीके से विरोध किया गया था। जब बिल वोटिंग के लिए प्रस्तुत किया जा रहा था, तब सरकार के पास सत्ताधारी दल और उनके सहयोगियों के, बिल पास करवाने हेतु वांछित सदस्य नही थे। अतः, जब विरोधी दल के सदस्यों ने बिल पर विभाजन (वोटिंग) की मांग की, राज्यसभा के उप सभापति द्वारा इसे मान्य नही किया गया। विपरीत इसके, उन्होंने बिल वॉइस वोटिंग के लिए प्रस्तुत कर दिया और बिल पास होने की घोषणा कर दी। यह और कुछ नही, वरन, लोकतंत्र की हत्या है और देश की संसदीय व्यवस्था पर प्रहार।

As per the call of BSNLEU, National Protest Day is observed in BSNL throughout the country. Lunch hour demonstrations were organised demanding immediate 4G service by BSNL, immediate Revival of BSNL, opposing attacks on the public sector and attacks on workers rights and democratic rights.

लोकसभा में, श्रम कानून संशोधन बिल असाधारण जल्दबाजी में स्वीकृत...

श्रम कानून संशोधन बिल, कल लोकसभा द्वारा असाधारण जल्दबाजी में स्वीकृत कर दिया गया। संघर्षों से हासिल किए गए अधिकारों को छिनते हुए , तीन लेबर कोड बिल ( Labour Code Bills) पास कर दिए गए। वें, निम्नानुसार है -

(a) Occupational Safety, Health & Working Condition Code. ( व्यावसायिक सुरक्षा, स्वास्थ्य और कार्य परिस्थिति बाबद)

(b) Code on Industrial Relations. (औद्योगिक संबंधों बाबद)

(c) Code on Social Security. (सामाजिक सुरक्षा बाबद)

उपर्युक्त बिल्स के अनुसार 74% से अधिक औद्योगिक वर्कर्स और 70% औद्योगिक संस्थानों के वर्कर्स “Hire & Fire Regime” (नियोक्ता की मर्जी अनुसार कार्य पर रखने और निकालने की व्यवस्था) के अंतर्गत झोंक दिए जाएंगे। पूंजीपति और कॉर्पोरेट्स अपनी मर्जी अनुसार वर्कर्स को कार्य पर रखेंगे और मर्जी अनुसार निकाल देंगे। ट्रेड यूनियन्स का गठन अत्यंत मुश्किल हो जाएगा। हड़ताल पर जाने के मजदूरों के अधिकार को वास्तविक रूप से प्रतिबंधित कर दिया जाएगा।

अब देश के वर्किंग क्लास के समक्ष श्रम कानून संशोधनों के खिलाफ लड़ने के अलावा अन्य कोई विकल्प शेष नही है।  

जहां जहां डिस्ट्रिक्ट जनरल बॉडी मीटिंग नही हुई है, वहां आयोजित करें....

BSNLEU की CEC मीटिंग में 19th सितंबर, 2020, को शहीद दिवस के रूप में मनाने का निर्णय लिया गया था। ऑल इंडिया सेन्टर ने निर्णय लिया था कि उस दिन डिस्ट्रिक्ट जनरल बॉडी मीटिंग आयोजित कर, CEC मीटिंग में लिए गए निर्णयों से सदस्यों को अवगत कराया जाए। जमीनी स्तर (grass-root level) के वर्कर्स तक CEC मीटिंग में लिए गए निर्णयों की जानकारी पहुंचाने के लिए डिस्ट्रिक्ट जनरल बॉडी मीटिंग आयोजित करना जरूरी है। 

अतः, CHQ ऐसी डिस्ट्रिक्ट यूनियन्स, जिसने अभी तक डिस्ट्रिक्ट जनरल बॉडी मीटिंग आयोजित नही की है, से अनुरोध करता है कि वें, CEC के निर्णयों से अवगत कराने के लिए, तत्काल मीटिंग्स आयोजित करें। सभी सर्किल यूनियन्स यह सुनिश्चित करे कि सभी जिलों में, हर हाल में, डिस्ट्रिक्ट जनरल बॉडी मीटिंग आयोजित हों।   

With abnormal haste, the Lok Sabha has passed the Labour Law Amendments yesterday. Three Labour Code Bills, have been passed, to snatch away the hard-won rights of the workers. They are :-

(a) Occupational Safety, Health & Working Condition Code. 

(b) Code on Industrial Relations. 

(c) Code on Social Security. 

The above bills will throw more than 74% of the Industrial Workers and 70% of the Industrial Establishments into the “Hire & Fire Regime”. The capitalists and the corporates will hire and fire the workers at their will. Formation of trade unions will become extremely difficult. A virtual ban will be imposed on the workers' right to go on strike.

The working class of this country are left with no option now, but to fight against this Labour Law Amendments.

The destructive anti-farmer bill, to serve the interests of big landlords and their corporate friends, was brought in the Rajya Sabha day before yesterday. It was tooth and nail opposed by the members belonging to the opposition parties. When the bill was taken for voting, the government did not have sufficient members from the ruling party and it’s allies, to pass the bill. Hence, when the opposition members demanded a division (voting) on the bill, the same was not accepted by the Deputy Chairman of the Rajya Sabha. Instead, he put the bill for voice voting and announced that the bill was passed. This is nothing but murder of democracy and an attack on the Parliamentary system of this country.

Opposition members protesting inside Parliament premises against the attack on Parliamentary system. 

The CEC meeting of BSNLEU decided to observe 19^th September, 2020, as Martyr’s Day. The All India Centre decided that District General Body meetings should be conducted on that day and the decisions of the CEC meeting should be explained to the members. Holding of the district general body meeting is very essential, to take the decisions of the CEC meeting to the grass-root level workers. 

Hence, the CHQ calls upon such of those district unions, which have not yet conducted their district general body meetings, to immediately conduct the same and to explain the decisions of the CEC meeting. All the circle unions are requested to ensure that the district general body meetings are conducted in all districts without fail.

As per the call of the 10 Central Trade Unions, National Protest Day is being observed throughout the country today. This day is being observed to protest against the severe attacks being launched on the public sector, including the Indian Railways, Defence Production Units, Petroleum Companies, Coal mines, Banks, LIC and BSNL. 

Further, the Modi government is also taking away the hard-worn rights of the workers, to benefit the corporates. The voice of democracy is being stifled. Those who raise their voice against the government and criticise it’s policies, are being branded as Deshdrohis. They are being arrested under the National Security Act and thrown behind the bars.

Together with the above issues, BSNLEU is raising the denial of 4G to BSNL and demanding early revival of BSNL. BSNLEU has given call to organise lunch hour demonstrations throughout the country. This day is  being observed as a part of BSNLEU’s countrywide campaign programme.

कल, 23.09.2020 को अखिल भारतीय विरोध दिवस- भोजन अवकाश में प्रदर्शन आयोजित करें....

10 सेंट्रल ट्रेड यूनियन्स द्वारा कल, 23.09.2020 को, मोदी सरकार द्वारा पब्लिक सेक्टर, वर्कर्स के अधिकार और जनता के प्रजातांत्रिक अधिकारों पर किए जा रहे हमलों के विरोध में "अखिल भारतीय विरोध दिवस" आयोजित करने का आव्हान किया गया है।

BSNLEU के ऑल इंडिया सेन्टर द्वारा भी कल भोजन अवकाश में प्रदर्शन आयोजित करने का आव्हान किया गया है। सर्किल और डिस्ट्रिक्ट यूनियन्स से अनुरोध है कि यह कार्यक्रम सफलतापूर्वक आयोजित करें। सोशल डिस्टनसिंग, मास्क लगाने व अन्य सावधानियों का ध्यान रखा जाए।

इस कार्यक्रम के जरिए,  BSNLEU की CEC मीटिंग में, BSNL की 4G सेवा की शीघ्र शुरुआत, BSNL का रिवाइवल आदि सुनिश्चित करने हेतु लिए गए निर्णय अनुसार अभियान भी चलाया जाए। कार्यक्रम की रिपोर्ट और फोटोज CHQ को ई-मेल द्वारा प्रेषित करें। 

The working class of Kerala is liberally donating to the Chief Ministers’ Distress Relief Fund, to enable the state to overcome the crisis created by COVID-19 pandemic, landslides, etc. Com.M.Vijayakumar, AGS, BSNLEU, whose daughter's marriage has taken place some days back,  has donated Rs.One lakh to the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund. CHQ heartily congratulates Com.M.Vijayakumar, AGS and his family, for their large-heartedness. 

The 10 Central Trade Unions have given the call to observe "All India Protest Day" tomorrow the 23.09.2020, to oppose the attacks being launched by the Modi Government on the public sector ,  on workers rights and on the democratic rights of the people.

 The All India Centre of BSNLEU , has called upon to organise lunch hour demonstrations tomorrow. Circle and District unions are requested to organise this programme successfully. Social distancing, wearing of masks and other precautions should be taken. 

This programme should also be utilised to organise the campaign, as decided by the CEC meeting of BSNLEU, to ensure immediate launching of 4G service by BSNL, Company's revival, etc. Report and photos of the programme may be emailed to the CHQ.

The Corporate Office has sent fund authorisation to the circles for the payment of salary. Payment of August salary will be made now.

CHQ is saddened to hear that Com.N.K. Nalawade, Vice President (CHQ) & Circle Secretary, BSNLEU, Maharashtra circle, has lost his elder sister and her husband. Both of them had been affected by the COVID-19. They had been admitted to the hospital. However, they could not be saved. CHQ expresses its heartfelt condolences to Com.N.K. Nalawade, and to all his family members.

The CEC meeting of BSNLEU, held on 10^th & 11^th September, 2020, has passed a detailed resolution, explaining how the cancellation of BSNL’s 4G tender has harmed the Company. The resolution has also emphasised the need for the employees to come together and to organise campaigns and struggles. The salient points of this resolution has been published in "The Hindu"  newspaper. 

The Financial Express, a leading daily on economic and financial matters, has published an article today, explaining how BSNL’s 4G launching, as well as it’s Financial Revival, is going to be harmed, due to the cancellation of BSNL’s 4G tender. 

The article reveals that, BSNL is going to be told by the government to build it’s 4G networks, through the “Managed Networks Model”. Under this model, hardware and software from different companies like Nokia and Ericsson would be purchased and would be assembled by an Indian company.

 While other private companies have installed their networks through “Turnkey Contracts”, where a single vendor will commission and manage the networks, it would be risky for BSNL at this stage, to undertake experiments, explains the article. 

This is exactly what is being told by BSNLEU and the AUAB. The Financial Express article very well explains how the decision of the government to cancel BSNL’s 4G tender and to direct BSNL to carry out experiments, will be suicidal for BSNL.

The CHQ of BSNLEU has called on to observe Martyr’s Day today, to pay homage to those who sacrificed their lives in the one day strike of Central Government employees, held on 19^th September, 1968. Responding to the call of CHQ, Martyr’s Day is observed throughout the country. District General Body meetings were organised and the comrades are explained about the demands and victimisations of the 1968 strike. CHQ congratulates the district unions for implementing the call.
