At time when nationwide protests are taking place against the CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act) and the NRC (National Register of Citizens), the Union Cabinet took decision today to create the National Population Register (NPR) and also allotted Rs.8,500 crore for it. The National Population Register is seen as the first step towards nationwide exercise to implement the NRC (National Register of Citizens). This decision has been taken by the Cabinet, despite recent announcement by the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, that there will not be nationwide NRC. This clearly shows that the NRC will be implemented throughout the nation.

Corona Virus has rattled the United States, which is the biggest economy in the world. So far 1,036 deaths are reported in the US. 68,573 are infected with Corona Virus. It is also reported that the disease is spreading fast in the US. It is widely being criticised that, the Donald Trump government was late in taking action, to control the Corona Virus. In China, “close-down” was ordered after one week of the first death was reported. The Indian Government has ordered the “close-down” two weeks after the first death was reported. But in the US, even the partial “close-down” was ordered only one month after the first death was reported. Why is this delay? And that too in an advanced country like the US? It seems, the delay has something to do with the business interests of Donald Trump. As everyone knows, the Donald Trump family owns a huge hospitality business, having five star hotels in the US, Canada and elsewhere. All the 2,200 rooms of these hotels are empty now due to the spread of Corona Virus. Besides, his golf courses in the US, Scotland, Ireland, etc., are also empty. His “Southern White House - the Beach front in Palm Beach in Florida” is also closed down. It is important to note that the “Trump Organisation” reported $435 million in revenues in 2018. Now, one can have a reasonable doubt that, the shut down in the US was delayed, only because of the fear that, Trump's hospitality business will lose it's revenues.

The All India Centre of BSNLEU has taken decision to organise Lunch Hour Demonstrations throughout the country on 21.05.2020, in front of BSNL offices. Since, this is the lock-down period, the demonstration should be organised by maintaining social distance. Placards must be displayed during the demonstration, to highlight our demands.

Demands: 

1. Honour the ILO decision. Do not increase working hours from 8 hours to 12 hours per day.

2. Immediately disburse salary for April, 2020.

3. Immediately pay the wage arrears of contract workers. Do not retrench contract workers through outsourcing of works.

4. Withdraw the decision to reduce Outdoor Treatment ceiling from 23 days to 15 days pay.

The All India Centre has decided that the Lunch Hour Demonstrations with social distance should be organised at the Corporate Office, Circle and District levels. All the circle and district unions are requested to take all out efforts to successfully organise this agitational programme.

Lock-down and various other restrictions for movement, like prohibition under section 144, are still in vogue in most of the circles. This condition is continuing from 25.03.2020. Considering the requirement to hold various meetings of our Organisation, the CHQ has already taken the software for holding online meetings.

 Utilising this software, the CHQ can provide digital platforms to all the circle unions, for holding their Circle Executive Committee Meetings. The CHQ wishes to advises that, it is not appropriate to hold Executive Committee meetings physically at this juncture, since it will unnecessarily expose our comrades to infection. 

Hence, all the Circle Unions are requested to organise their Circle Executive Committee meetings online, by taking the digital platform from the CHQ. The General Secretary / CHQ office bearers can also attend these meetings, for which dates may be taken from the General Secretary.

By enacting the CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act) the ruling BJP has made an assault on the secular character of our Constitution. Why the CAA is enacted? After enacting the CAA, in which direction the government will proceed and what is it’s ultimate goal? Today’s meeting of the Union Cabinet has decided to create the NPR (National Population Register). The next step is creating NRC (National Register of Citizens). All these steps are nothing but to implement the agenda of the RSS to create the “Hindu Rashtra”. This article for the Tele-crusader January, 2020 explains.
