सरकार के उच्च स्तर पर बीएसएनएल को मारने की साजिश चल रही है। 

सरकार ने ठान लिया है कि वह बीएसएनएल को 4जी सेवा शुरू करने की अनुमति नहीं देगी । मार्च, 2020 में बीएसएनएल ने ग्लोबल वेंडर्स से 4जी उपकरण खरीदने के लिए टेंडर निकाला था। लेकिन, सरकार के निर्देशानुसार इस टेंडर को रद्द कर दिया गया। इसके अलावा सरकार ने बीएसएनएल से कहा कि बीएसएनएल के कोर 4जी उपकरण केवल घरेलू विक्रेताओं से ही खरीदे जाने चाहिए । हालांकि, मार्च, 2021 में मीडिया ने बताया कि विज्ञान और प्रौद्योगिकी पर प्रधानमंत्री के प्रधान सलाहकार श्री विजय राघवन की अध्यक्षता वाले सशक्त प्रौद्योगिकी समूह (ईटीजी) ने बीएसएनएल को नोकिया, एरिक्सन जैसे वैश्विक विक्रेताओं से 4जी उपकरण खरीदने की मंजूरी दे दी थी। लेकिन अब पता चला है कि सरकार ने ईटीजी की सिफारिश को खारिज कर दिया है। अब बीएसएनएल 4जी मुद्दे पर एक वर्ग में वापस आ गया है । निस्संदेह सरकार के उच्च स्तर पर बीएसएनएल को मारने की साजिश चल रही है।

The government is determined not to allow BSNL to launch it’s 4G service. In March, 2020, BSNL floated tender to procure 4G equipments from global vendors. But, this tender was cancelled as per the directive of the government. Further, the government told BSNL that it's core 4G equipments should be procured only from domestic vendors. However, in March, 2021, media reported that the Empowered Technology Group (ETG), headed by Shri Vijay Raghavan, Principal Advisor to the Prime Minister on Science and Technology, had given it’s approval for BSNL to procure 4G equipments from global vendors, such as Nokia, Ericsson, etc. But, now, it is learnt that, the government has ultimately rejected the recommendation of the ETG. Now BSNL is back to square one, on the 4G issue. Undoubtedly, conspiracy is going on at the highest level of the government, to kill BSNL.

बीएसएनएल के नॉन एग्जिक्युटिव्स को आईडीए भुगतान नहीं किया गया - जनरल सेक्रेटरी ने एक बार फिर सीएमडी बीएसएनएल से बात की।
जहां तक नॉन एग्जिक्युटिव्स को आईडीए के भुगतान का संबंध है, माननीय केरल उच्च न्यायालय के आदेश पर अभी तक अमल नहीं हुआ है। बीएसएनएलईयू लगातार इस मुद्दे को उठा रहा है। आज कॉम.पी.अभिमन्यु, जीएस ने एक बार फिर बीएसएनएल के सीएमडी श्री पीके पुरवार से बात की और इस मुद्दे पर चर्चा की। सीएमडी बीएसएनएल ने बताया कि कुछ दिन पहले भी बीएसएनएल प्रबंधन ने दूरसंचार सचिव को पत्र लिखकर डीपीई से जानकारी लेने के लिए कार्रवाई करने का अनुरोध किया है, जिसमें बीएसएनएल के नॉन एग्जिक्युटिव्स को देय अतिरिक्त आईडीए के प्रतिशत के संबंध में कार्रवाई की जाएगी। हालांकि, बीएसएनएल प्रबंधन को अभी तक  DoT की ओर से कोई जवाब नहीं मिला है। यह ध्यान दिया जाना चाहिए कि BSNLEU ने अदालत के आदेश को लागू न करने के संबंध में एक और याचिका दायर की है ।

As regards, the payment of IDA to the Non-Executives, the order of the Hon’ble Kerala High Court is not yet implemented. BSNLEU is continuously taking up this issue. Today, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, once again spoke to Shri P.K. Purwar, CMD BSNL, and discussed this issue. The CMD BSNL told that, even a few days ago, the BSNL Management has written a letter to the Secretary, Telecom, requesting him to take action to get information from the DPE, regarding the percentage of additional DA that has become payable to the Non-Executives of BSNL. However, no response was received from the DoT, stated the CMD BSNL. 

BSNLEU is seriously taking up the matter of issuing Presidential Orders to the TSMs, who were directly promoted as Telecom Technicians. The matter is lying pending with the DoT.

The Sr.GM(Estt.) replied that, the DoT has so far not given it’s approval for this. At the same time, he assured that, he would speak to the concerned DDG, in the DoT and expedite the matter.

It is already informed that BSNLEU is seriously taking efforts to implement a Medical Insurance Scheme to the willing BSNL employees. Today, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, spoke to Shri A.M.

The Sr.GM(Admn.) replied that, one sitting of the Internal Committee of the Management on this matter, has already taken place. He further stated that, bargaining will soon start with the insurance companies, to finalise the premium, as well as other terms and conditions.

In a landmark judgement delivered today, the Supreme Court has quashed the sedition case filed against the reputed journalist, Vinod Dua. The charge against Vinod Dua is that, he had accused Prime Minister Modi of using “deaths and terror attacks” to get votes.  For this, a sedition (Desh droh) case has been filed against Vinod Dua. Whether criticising the Prime Minister is Desh droh? The Supreme Court has said "no" and has quashed the sedition case filed against Vinod Dua.  In the 1962 judgement, delivered in the Kedar Nath Singh case, the Supreme Court has ruled that, speeches and expressions can be termed as seditious, only if the speech is an ‘incitement’ to ‘violence’ or ‘public disorder’. 

प्रधानमंत्री की आलोचना करना राजद्रोह नहीं है - सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने पत्रकार विनोद दुआ के खिलाफ देशद्रोह का मामला रद्द कर दिया ।

सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने आज दिए गए एक ऐतिहासिक फैसले में नामी पत्रकार विनोद दुआ के खिलाफ दायर देशद्रोह के मामले को रद्द कर दिया है। विनोद दुआ के खिलाफ आरोप है कि, उन्होंने प्रधानमंत्री मोदी पर वोट पाने के लिए ' मौतों और आतंकी हमलों ' का इस्तेमाल करने का आरोप लगाया था ।इसके लिए विनोद दुआ के खिलाफ देशद्रोह  केस दर्ज किया गया है। क्या प्रधानमंत्री की आलोचना क्या देश द्रोह है? सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने कहा है कि "नहीं" और विनोद दुआ के खिलाफ दायर राजद्रोह के मामले को रद्द कर दिया है।  केदार नाथ सिंह मामले में दिए गए 1962 के फैसले में उच्चतम न्यायालय ने व्यवस्था दी है कि भाषणों और अभिव्यक्तियों को देशद्रोही कहा जा सकता है, तभी भाषण हिंसा या जन अव्यवस्था के लिए उकसाना है।

The CITU is organising an online meeting of the functionaries of the Public Sector trade unions on 15-06-2021. The meeting will start at 11:00 am. The Modi government is launching an all-out attack on the Public Sector, through privatisation. Huge assets of the Public Sector, are being handed over to the big corporates like Ambani, Adani, etc., at throw away prices. 

Simultaneously, the Modi government has launched it's attacks on the trade union movement also. All the existing Labour Laws are being scrapped and the anti-worker Labour Codes are being brought. The whole purpose is to kill the fighting potential of the trade unions. The meeting will discuss all these issues. Further, the meeting will also discuss about the Covid-19 pandemic situation.

JE LICE परीक्षा को ऑनलाइन परीक्षा के रूप में न रखें - BSNLEU निदेशक (एचआर) के साथ औपचारिक बैठक में चर्चा के लिए आइटम देता है।
BSNLEU लंबे समय से मांग कर रहा है कि JE LICE केवल एक ऑफलाइन परीक्षा (Offline exam) के रूप में आयोजित किया जाना चाहिए। इस मांग को उठाने का कारण यह है कि, जो लोग इस परीक्षा में शामिल होते  है, वे हैं टेलीकॉम टेक्नीशियन और असिस्टेंट टेलीकॉम टेक्नीशियन. ये कर्मचारी कंप्यूटर संचालन से परिचित नहीं हैं। लेकिन निगम कार्यालय की भर्ती शाखा JE LICE को ऑनलाइन (Online) परीक्षा के रूप में कराने पर जोर दे रही है। इसलिए, BSNLEU ने निदेशक (मानव संसाधन) के साथ आगामी औपचारिक बैठक में चर्चा के लिए इसे एक अतिरिक्त मद के रूप में प्रस्तुत किया है ।

It has been brought to the notice of the CHQ of BSNLEU that, many DR JEs have already applied for transfer to their home circles, under Rule-8, after completing 5 years of service in their recruited circles. However, it is being complained that, the transfer requests of these DR JEs are not being considered. The worst part is that, their transfer applications are not even being forwarded, by their controlling officers, to the CGM's office. BSNLEU has taken up this issue as an agenda item, to be discussed in the Formal meeting, to be held with the Director (HR) on 17^th / 18^th / 19^th June, 2021.

It is already three and half months, since the Hon’ble Kerala High Court gave an order for the payment of IDA to the Non-Executives of BSNL. The  Hon’ble Court has said that, the freezing of IDA by the government, is not applicable to the Non-Executives of BSNL. However, the DPE, the DoT and the BSNL Management are playing hide-and-seek game on this matter and have not implemented the court order. An RTI question has been raised on this issue by one of our DR JEs. However, the same hide-and-seek reply has been given by the authorities. BSNLEU has again filed a petition in the Hon’ble Kerala High Court on this matter. At the same time, we appreciate the comrade, who has raised very relevant and pointed RTI question on the matter. The RTI question and reply are enclosed for the information of all.

Com.C. Santhosh Kumar, Circle Secretary, BSNLEU, Kerala, is retiring on superannuation today, after completing 36 years of service. He became the circle secretary of Kerala circle in 2018 and has provided a solid and able leadership to the circle union.

However, such victimisations could not deter him. The CHQ is especially thankful to Com. Santhosh, for promptly sharing various letters and information. The CHQ heartily congratulates Com.Santhosh Kumar on his superannuation and wishes him a long, healthy and active retired life.
