The speech delivered by Shri P.K. Purwar, CMD BSNL, yesterday, among the Corporate Office employees, has drawn wide spread criticism. CHQ is receiving calls and messages from a lot of comrades expressing their anguish about the CMD’s speech, which is totally in the negative tone. The CMD BSNL has stated that:-
The above mentioned statements of the CMD BSNL are high handed, unacceptable and deplorable. He has insulted the BSNL employees, who have ensured the survival of BSNL, through their dedication and hard work. The Hon'ble Minister of Communications has stated that the VRS will be purely voluntary and no one will be forced to go on VRS. However, violating this, the CMD BSNL has stated that all the employees of more than 50 years of age, should take VRS and go. This type of high-handedness cannot be tolerated. BSNLEU wishes to inform all our comrades that the CHQ is in touch with the other constituents of the AUAB, for taking appropriate action on this issue.
Due to the implementation of VRS, 50% of the employees are retiring on 31.01.2020. Correspondingly, the membership of unions and associations will also be reduced. Hence, CHQ has already requested the circle secretaries to inform the district wise membership of BSNLEU. From February, 2020, onwards, Telecrusader and BSNL Swar will be despatched only based on the membership after 31.01.2020. Hence, all circle secretaries are requested to immediately send their district wise Membership. This may be treated as very urgent.
