They will reportedly be allowed to decide the fares after the approval of the Rail Development Authority of India that is going to be constituted.

Hindi translation of "How Shri P.K. Purwar, CMD BSNL, justifies the transfer of BSNL's lands at throw-away price to the SPV?"

श्री पी के पुरवार, CMD BSNL, BSNL की जमीनों को बेहद न्यूनतम दरों पर SPV को स्थानांतरित करने को किस तरह उचित बता रहे हैं ?....
आज के ET टेलीकॉम ने BSNLEU द्वारा प्रेषित प्रेस विज्ञप्ति के संबंध में, जिसमें यूनियन द्वारा BSNL की जमीनों को बेहद न्यूनतम दरों पर SPV को स्थानांतरित करने का आरोप लगाया लगाया गया है, पर एक लेख प्रकाशित किया है। इस पर प्रतिक्रिया देते हुए श्री पी के पुरवार, CMD BSNL ने यूनियन के आरोपों का खंडन किया है। उन्होंने कहा है कि "इस तरह के आरोप निराधार और गलत है क्योंकि कैबिनेट नोट बनाने के लिए जमीनों का मूल्यांकन सांकेतिक आधार पर किया गया है।"

अपनी प्रेस विज्ञप्ति में BSNLEU ने स्पष्ट रूप से उल्लेखित किया है कि  वर्ष 2013 में ही केरल सरकार द्वारा तिरुअनंतपुरम में स्थित BSNL RTTC की जमीन खरीदने के लिए रु 15 लाख प्रति सेंट की दर से भुगतान किया गया था। जबकि, 9 वर्ष के अंतराल के पश्चात, BSNL मैनेजमेंट ने RTTC तिरुअनंतपुरम की 1 सेंट जमीन का मूल्य रु 10 लाख आंका है। अब यह श्री पी के पुरवार, CMD BSNL पर निर्भर करता है कि वें 2013 में रु 15 लाख प्रति सेंट की दर से बेची गई जमीन का मूल्यांकन 2019 में रु 10 लाख प्रति सेंट किया जा सकता है, इसे कैसे उचित साबित करेंगे।

Era of free voice calls is over - Jio will charge 6 paisa per minute for calls going to other mobile operators.

Reliance Jio, which introduced unlimited free voice calls, has decided to charge it’s customers  6 paisa per minute, for the calls going to other mobile operators. In a statement issued yesterday, Jio has announced that it is compelled to charge 6 paisa per minute, since it has to pay hefty IUC charge to other operators. In the statement, Jio has also stated that, it had paid Rs.13,500 crores as IUC charges to other operators, during the last 3 years. Whatever may be the reason, the era of giving unlimited free voice calls to the customers is gone. Charging 6 paisa per minute is undoubtedly a steep increase in the tariff. This development indicates that the brutal tariff war unleashed by Reliance Jio, to eliminate other operators, has come to an end. The Reliance Jio has been forced to raise it’s tariff and naturally, this will be followed by the other operators also.

BSNLEU, Vijaynagar Branch, Bengaluru Telecom District, sets an example.

Telecommunications is an essential service like Health Care, Electricity and Water Supply. These services have to remain operational, so that people do not suffer. Hence, BSNL's field staff have to work, to keep our networks operational. In this process, the danger of our staff getting infected with Corona Virus is very much there.

Keeping this in mind, the Vijaynagar Branch of BSNLEU, Bengaluru Telecom District, has come out with the programme of supplying masks to the field staff, providing sanitisers in the CSC and displaying a banner to educate the customers as to what they should.
