महासचिव की छवि खराब करने के उद्देश्य से इस्तांबुल यात्रा को लेकर निंदनीय पोस्टर ....
कॉम पी अभिमन्यु, बीएसएनएल की एक विशाल यूनियन के महासचिव होने के नाते बीएसएनएल और बीएसएनएल कर्मियों के हितों की रक्षा के लिए किए जा रहे निरंतर संघर्षों में अग्रणी भूमिका निभा रहे हैं। 2010 में BSNLEU के महासचिव बनने के पश्चात कई हड़तालों के आयोजन में कॉम पी अभिमन्यु की प्रमुख नेतृत्वकारी भूमिका रही है। 3rd पे रिवीजन और बीएसएनएल के रिवाइवल के लिए की गई 3 दिवसीय हड़ताल में भी उन्होंने बेहद महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका का निर्वहन किया है।
हाल ही में 1 और 2 मार्च 2019 को कॉम पी अभिमन्यु इस्तांबुल में हुई WFTU- TUI (ट्रांसपोर्ट एंड कम्युनिकेशन्स) की 14वीं महासभा (congress) में शामिल हुए हैं। उन्होंने इस 14वीं महासभा में भारत में और साथ ही वैश्विक स्तर पर टेलीकम्यूनिकेशन सेक्टर की स्थिति पर बेहद प्रेरणादायी उद्बोधन भी दिया। हम सभी के लिए यह गौरवान्वित करने वाली बात है कि WFTU- TUI (ट्रांसपोर्ट एंड कम्युनिकेशन्स) की 14वीं महासभा में कॉम पी अभिमन्यु का ट्रेड यूनियन्स ऑफ कम्युनिकेशन्स सेक्टर के कन्वेनर के रूप में चयन किया गया है। लेकिन कुछ नकारात्मक सोच वाले तत्वों द्वारा व्हाट्सएप पर प्रसारित एक पोस्टर के माध्यम से कॉम पी अभिमन्यु की इस्तांबुल यात्रा को लेकर उनकी छवि धूमिल करने का यह कह कर प्रयास किया जा रहा है कि BSNLEU के महासचिव ऐसे वक्त में विदेश भ्रमण कर रहे हैं जब कर्मचारियों को सैलरी का भुगतान नही हुआ है। पोस्टर प्रसारित करने वाले ये तत्व प्रमुख समस्याओं से कर्मचारियों का ध्यान भटकाने का प्रयास कर रहे हैं। बीएसएनएल कर्मचारियों को सैलरी का भुगतान करने में असमर्थ है और बीएसएनएल में ऐसी दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण स्थिति निर्मित करने के लिए केवल सरकार उत्तरदायी है। लेकिन कुछ लोग सैलरी के भुगतान को कॉम पी अभिमन्यु की इस्तांबुल यात्रा से जोड़ रहे हैं। यह प्रयास दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण है और निंदनीय भी। विश्वसनीय सूत्रों से ज्ञात हुआ है कि इस हरकत के पीछे जबलपुर का एक NFTE का सदस्य है। इसे साबित करने के लिए हमारे पास प्रमाण भी है। यह शख्स लगातार BSNLEU और यूनियन के महासचिव की छवि धूमिल करने के लिए फेसबुक पर पोस्ट करने के साथ साथ व्हाट्सएप आदि पर पोस्ट प्रसारित कर रहा है। इसके पूर्व भी इस उधमी व्यक्ति (miscreant) द्वारा ऐसे पोस्टर प्रसारित किए गए हैं। BSNLEU ने यह प्रकरण NFTE के महासचिव के संज्ञान में भी लाया है। हमें उम्मीद है कि NFTE का नेतृत्व इस शख्स के खिलाफ यथोचित कार्यवाही करेगा।
The CHQ of BSNLEU had called upon the circle and district unions to conduct a Save BSNL Save Nation campaign, from 13th to 30th April, 2019, by organising Street Corner meetings.

BSNLEU conveys best wishes and warm greetings to all, on the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. One of the basic ambitions of Mahatma Gandhi is communal harmony. He taught us that India is a country, which belongs to the people of all the religions. Today, Mahatma Gandhi's preaching is being rejected. We are being told that, India belongs to the people of a particular religion. Mahatma Gandhi was shot dead by a religious fanatic. While celebrating the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, let us uphold his preaching and to do our best to strengthen communal harmony.
Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, met Shri P.K. Purwar, CMD BSNL, yesterday, and discussed the following issues:-
BSNLEU is continuously demanding that relaxation should be granted to the candidates of the JTO LICE held on 26.05.2019. This demand is raised since the question paper contained a sizable number of wrong and out of syllabus questions and also questions with multiple correct answers. The issue was continuously discussed with the Director (HR). However, no solution has come. Under these circumstances, BSNLEU wrote a detailed letter to the CMD BSNL, yesterday, demanding full marks for the 10 questions with multiple correct answers. Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, met Shri P.K. Purwar, CMD BSNL yesterday and discussed this issue elaborately. The GS, BSNLEU, asserted that the candidates should not be punished for the blunders committed by the examiner. Hence, full marks should be granted to all the 10 questions with multiple correct answers. The CMD BSNL assured that the matter would be looked into. BSNLEU is confident of settling this issue.
Due to the non-remittance of LIC premium money deducted from the salary of the employees, by the BSNL Management, the LIC has informed that the policies have since lapsed. BSNLEU has already written to the CMD BSNL on this matter. In his meeting held with Shri P.K. Purwar, CMD BSNL, yesterday, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, sought his intervention for the restoration of the lapsed LIC policies of the employees. The CMD BSNL assured that all needful actions would be taken and also stated that, if required, BSNL would also pay the interest to LIC, to restore the policies.
Buddha Purnima falls on the full moon day in the month of Vaishakh. This day marks the birth anniversary, as well as the Day of enlightenment of Lord Buddha. Today is said to be the 2582nd birth anniversary of Lord Buddha. On this day, BSNLEU conveys it's best wishes and warm greetings to one and all. The preachings of lord Buddha, the foremost among which is Ahimsa, are very relevant today, when hatred is being spread and people are being divided in the name of gods and religions.

BSNL is in the midst of a serious financial problem. To overcome this, the Management is curtailing the existing facilities of the employees. As a matter of fact, a lot of wasteful expenditures are taking place at the All India, circle and district levels. These wasteful expenditures have got to be weeded out, so as to strengthen the financial condition of the Company. BSNLEU is taking the initiative on this account also. Soon a meeting will be held between the Director (Finance) and the unions and associations. Hence, CHQ calls upon our CEC members, district secretaries and all the interested comrades, to take out some time to find out what are all the wasteful expenditures that are taking place around us. CHQ requests the comrades to inform about such wasteful expenditures on the e-mail ID bsnleuchq@gmail.com, through letters and through Whatsapp to the General Secretary.
A meeting of the AUAB is being held at 16:00 hrs. tomorrow the 02nd August, 2018, at BSNL MS office. The meeting will review the agitational programme recently conducted by the AUAB, as well as the meeting held with the Minister today.

The women of Kerala formed a historic 620 km. long human wall yesterday, opposing discrimination against women. The women’s wall was formed from Kasaragod in the North, up to Thiruvananthapuram in the South. The women’s wall was joined by various organizations, demanding equality to women. It is reported that around 50 lakh women participated in this human wall. At a time when fundamentalist forces are trying to take Kerala to the dark age, this movement by Kerala women is really praiseworthy. BSNLEU salutes all the women and their organisations who participated in this historic movement.
The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC) has appointed Shri H.S. Sohal as the next Chief Vigilance Officer (CVO) of BSNL.

Sohal is an IFS officer belonging to the 1987 batch.
The Extended CEC meeting of BSNLEU, held at Pune, reviewed the issue of non-payment of wages to the contract workers for the past seven months. BSNLEU, together with the BSNLCCWF, has already organised dharna on 16-07-2019. However, there is no improvement on this issue. Hence, the Extended CEC meeting decided to organise March to the offices of Assistant Labour Commissioner / Regional Labour Commissioners / Deputy Labour Commissioner. BSNLEU and the BSNLCCWF have decided to organise this programme on 13-08-2019. CHQ calls upon all the circle and district unions to effectively organise this programme. Rallies may be organised to whichever Labour Commissioner Office located in various cities and towns. A memorandum may also be submitted to the DLC, RLC and ALC, demanding their immediate intervention for the payment of wage arrears to the contract workers.
The MoU signed by BSNL, with the Canara Bank, for the extension of loans to BSNL employees, has already lapsed in December, 2019. BSNLEU has already written to the Management seeking an early renewal of the MoU. In this connection, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, met Shri P.C. Bhatt, Sr.GM(CBB), yesterday, and discussed this issue. The Sr.GM(CBB) assured that the MoU would be renewed expeditiously.
Yesterday, the AUAB has written a very detailed letter to the Hon’ble Prime Minister, soliciting his intervention, for clearing the road-blocks being created in BSNL's 4G tender, based on the complaint of the TEPC. A copy of the letter has been released to the media. The Financial Express and the National Herald have published detailed write-up on this issue.
The All India Centre of BSNLEU has taken disciplinary action against one of it’s Chennai Circle office bearers. This is purely BSNLEU’s internal matter.
Others have no business to poke their nose into it. However, C.K. Mathivanan, the rogue circle secretary of NFTE, Chennai Circle, has made a derogatory criticism on his website, about this.
Everyone knows that C.K.Mathivanan is a man without any discipline or decency. When Com.V.A.N. Namboodiri was the General Secretary of BSNLEU, C.K. Mathivanan used to insult and attack him. After taking over as General Secretary, Com.P.Abhimanyu has become the target for his attacks. The worst part of story is that, C.K.Mathivanan is abusing and attacking his own leaders as well.
Some years back, Com.Chandeswar Singh, General Secretary, NFTE, came to address an all union seminar at Chennai. There, he was gheraoed in the public place, by C.K. Mathivanan and his thugs for a pretty long time. So far as we know, such a misfortune has never happened to any other General Secretary.
Apart from these, another key All India Office bearer of NFTE has also become the victim of C.K.Mathivanan’s attacks. C.K.Manthivanan wrote on his circle union website that, this leader has changed his Union, as many times as he changed his shirts.
When the JAC leaders signed agreement with the BSNL Management, settling 78.2% IDA merger, C.K. Mathivanan, wrote on his website that, the All India leaders have surrendered the interests of the workers. He even went to the extent of organising protest meetings, condemning the agreement. However, when the order for 78.2% IDA merger was issued, C.K.Mathivanan silently received the benefits and enjoyed.
The AUAB is uniting the entire officers and employees of BSNL and is continuously fighting against the government, to safeguard BSNL and it’s employees. However, C.K. Mathivanan has made it his habit to attack and ridicule the AUAB. This issue has already been raised at the All India AUAB meetings, with NFTE leadership. Even now, NFTE is not a part of the AUAB in Chennai circle.
A few months back, once again C.K. Mathivanan, insulted Com.Chandeswar Singh, General Secretary, NFTE. What C.K.Mathivanan wrote on his website, goes on like this :- "The General Secretary, who calls himself a communist, kept on waiting for the Telecom Minister at Patna airport. But, on his arrival, the Minister ignored the leader and did not even bother to look at his face. However, the General Secretary, kept following the Minister, with folded hands. Why this pathetic situation? "
It is also a fact that, C.K.Mathivanan did not spare even great leaders like Com.O.P.Gupta and Com.Jagan. Normally, C.K. Mathivanan used to refer Com.O.P.Gupta as *“that old man”.* Frequently, he has abused both Com.O.P.Gupta and Com.Jagan in filthy language.
Whatever happens inside NFTE is their internal matter. But, if the NFTE leadership allows C.K.Mathivanan to hurl abuses at BSNLEU and AUAB, it will not be appropriate.
Hence, BSNLEU wishes to make an appeal to the NFTE leadership, that it is time for them to discipline C.K. Mathivanan.
