Re-engagement of retrenched contract workers - Corporate Office calls for the comments of the CGMs.

A few months back, BSNL Corporate Office has issued letter to All the CGMs, directing to retrench 30% of the contract workers, in the name of reducing the expenditure of the Company. Since then, BSNLEU is seriously taking up the issue with the CMD BSNL and the Director (HR) for the reengagement of the retrenched contract workers. BSNLEU has suggested that these retrenched contract workers can be redeployed in sales and marketing activities, thereby creating a win-win situation for both the workers and the Company. Unfortunately, Corporate Office has taken belated action on the suggestion of BSNLEU, and has forwarded the letter of BSNLEU to the circles, calling for their views. The efforts of BSNLEU will continue till the contract workers are re-engaged.

Impact of the strike.

The 3 day strike called on by the AUAB is a tremendous success. The ordinary employee of BSNL is firmly standing by the justified demands put forth by the AUAB. Any number of lies and slanders being spread by black-legs and betrayers are not deterring the ordinary employee, who is determined to ensure the financial viability of BSNL and the future of BSNL’s employees. The ordinary workers of Campbell Bay Exchange in the Andaman & Nicobar Islands are the classic example. This exchange is 2,400 kms. away from New Delhi. But, distance is not a matter. The call of the AUAB is implemented and the small number of workers of this Exchange are on strike. This is the impact of the strike.

Hindi translation of "BSNLEU welcomes the decision of Congress President, Rahul Gandhi, that, "Niti Aayog" would be scrapped."

"नीति आयोग" खत्म करने के, कांग्रेस अध्यक्ष राहुल गांधी के बयान का BSNLEU स्वागत करती है...
कांग्रेस पार्टी के अध्यक्ष राहुल गांधी ने कल घोषणा की, कि वें नीति आयोग को खत्म कर योजना आयोग (planning commission) वापिस लावेंगे। स्वतंत्रता के पश्चात वर्ष 1950 में देश की अर्थव्यवस्था योजनाबद्ध तरीके से विकसित करने के उद्देश्य से योजना आयोग का गठन किया गया था। किन्तु, वर्ष 2014 में सत्ता हासिल करने के बाद प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी ने योजना आयोग को बंद कर नीति आयोग स्थापित किया था। इसकी स्थापना के बाद से ही नीति आयोग को एक सूत्रीय जिम्मेदारी दी गई थी, भारत के पब्लिक सेक्टर को खत्म करने की। यह स्मरण करना बेहद जरूरी है कि नीति आयोग द्वारा BSNL और MTNL को बंद करने की अनुशंसा की जा चुकी है। साथ ही, नीति आयोग ने BSNL को 4G स्पेक्ट्रम आवंटन प्रस्ताव को भी निरस्त कर दिया है। नीति आयोग ने यह सवाल खड़ा किया कि जब निजी कंपनियां 4G सेवाएं दे ही रही हैं, तो BSNL को 4G स्पेक्ट्रम देने का क्या औचित्य है ? नीति आयोग शत प्रतिशत तौर पर PSU विरोधी और कॉर्पोरेट समर्थक है। ऐसी स्थिति में, सत्ता प्राप्ति पर नीति आयोग को खत्म करने और पुनः योजना आयोग स्थापित करने की कांग्रेस अध्यक्ष राहुल गांधी की घोषणा का BSNLEU स्वागत करती है।

Hunger strike organised effectively throughout the country, despite all out efforts taken by BSNL Management to crush it.

As per reports received from the circles the one day hunger strike, called on by BSNLEU, FNTO, BSNL MS, BSNL ATM and BSNL OA, has been organised very successfully throughout the country. This is despite the fact that the BSNL Management took all out efforts to crush the hunger strike. At New Delhi, a very good hunger strike was organised at the Eastern Court. Leaders of BSNLEU, FNTO, BSNL MS, BSNL ATM and BSNL OA took part in the hunger strike, together with a good number of comrades. BSNLEU heartily thanks everyone, for making this hunger strike a success. If the BSNL Management does not take constructive steps to settle the demands, more intensive movement will become inevitable.

Relaxation for the recently held JE LICE - Circle Secretaries are requested to send details immediately.

BSNLEU has already taken up the demand with Director (HR), for reviewing results of the recently held JE LICE. The matter is already discussed with the GM (Rectt.). But it seems Management is not inclined to accept our demand. Hence, CHQ has already called upon the circle secretaries to provide details to the CHQ, regarding the number of JE LICE vacancies existing in each circle, and also the number of candidates qualified in the recently held exam. These details will help us to take up the case strongly with the Management. All circle secretaries are requested to immediately send the inputs to the GS, through SMS / Whatsapp or through E-mail.

Change in the dates of the All India Conference.

It is already decided that the AIC of BSNLEU will be held at Mysuru, from 8th to 11th January, 2019. However, the Central Trade Unions have given call yesterday, for a two day strike, to be organised on 8th and 9th January, 2019. It is needless to say that, BSNLEU has to make the strike successful in BSNL.  Hence, we cannot conduct our AIC, as per the dates decided earlier. In view of this, the All India Centre meeting held today, has decided to prepone the dates of the AIC. Accordingly, the All India Conference will now be conducted on 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th December, 2018.  The Pre-AIC CEC meeting will be held on 16.12.2018. All CEC members, delegates and observers are requested to book their journey tickets accordingly. The inconvenience caused in this regard to our comrades, is highly regretted by the CHQ. All the comrades are requested to cooperate with the CHQ, in this regard.

Hindi translation of "First day strike a roaring success - AUAB congratulates the employees."

हड़ताल का प्रथम दिन, अद्भुत रूप से सफल - AUAB की सभी कर्मचारियों को बधाई...
प्रथम दिन, हड़ताल की जबरदस्त सफलता के लिए AUAB की सभी नॉन-एग्जीक्यूटिव्ज व  एग्जीक्यूटिव्ज को दिली बधाई।  आज AUAB ने 15.30 hrs पर हुई अपनी मीटिंग में हड़ताल के प्रथम दिन की समीक्षा की। AUAB के सभी घटकों के महासचिव व वरिष्ठ पदाधिकारी उपस्थित रहे। सर्कल्स से प्राप्त रिपोर्ट के अनुसार प्रथम दिन पूर्ण हड़ताल हुई है। यह भी देखने मे आया कि हडताल शांतिपूर्ण तरीके से हो रही है। एक तरफ तो कल शाम को प्रेस इनफार्मेशन ब्यूरो के माध्यम से जारी अपने प्रेस स्टेटमेंट में DoT ने कहा है कि मुद्दों के निवारण हेतु वह AUAB के साथ चर्चारत है। वहीं दूसरी ओर व्यापक रूप से कर्मचारियों द्वारा हड़ताल में प्रथम दिन की गई सहभागिता के बावजूद DoT ने , AUAB को चर्चा हेतु आमंत्रित नही किया है। यह DoT की दोहरी नीति को दर्शाता है। ऐसी परिस्थितियों में, आज सम्पन्न AUAB की मीटिंग में यह प्रस्तावित  किया गया कि कर्मचारियों को हड़ताल को और अधिक तीव्र करने व हड़ताल के दूसरे व तीसरे दिन हड़ताल को शतप्रतिशत सफल बनाने का आव्हान किया जाए।

Hindi translation of "Jio's ARPU falls sharply - Good news for the industry."

जियो के ARPU में तीव्र गिरावट- इंडस्ट्री के लिए अच्छी खबर...
यह भारत की टेलीकॉम इंडस्ट्री के लिए सुखद खबर है कि रिलायंस जियो के ARPU में तीव्र गिरावट हो रही है। ऑपरेटर के कुल राजस्व को कंपनी के ग्राहकों की संख्या से भाग देने पर प्राप्त संख्या ARPU कहलाती है। अतः, किसी भी कंपनी के ARPU में वृद्धि से मुनाफे में भी वृद्धि होगी और कमी होने से ठीक विपरीत। खबर मिली है कि रिलायंस का ARPU कम होता जा रहा है। इसका ARPU दिसंबर 2017 में रु 154/- था। फिर दिसंबर 2018 में यह गिर कर रु 130/- हो गया। इसके बाद और गिरावट के साथ मार्च 2019 में यह रु 126.2 पर आ गया। यह एक सर्व विदित तथ्य है कि जियो द्वारा शुरू किए गए बेहद नृशंस मूल्य युद्ध (टैरिफ वार) की वजह से BSNL सहित सभी टेलीकॉम कंपनियां घाटे की स्थिति में पहुंच गई। जियो चाहता है कि सभी टेलीकॉम कंपनियां बंद हो जाए और वह टेलीकॉम इंडस्ट्री में एकाधिकार स्थापित कर जनता को लूट सके। इंडस्ट्री के विश्लेषकों का अनुमान है कि शीघ्र ही टेलीकॉम टैरिफ में वृद्धि होगी। अब, जियो के ARPU में तीव्र गिरावट इस बात के संकेत है कि जियो को भी अपने टैरिफ में शीघ्र वृद्धि करना होगी और ये BSNL व अन्य ऑपरेटर्स के लिए अच्छी खबर है।

Government of India reduces GPF interest rate.

The Government of India has reduced the GPF interest rate. Currently, it is 8% and hereafter it will be 7.9%. It must be remembered that the big corporates are continuously demanding the government to reduce the rate of interest, so that they can get loans at cheaper rate of interest. (It is a different story that, ultimately they will not repay the loans)
