Today, Com.K.G.Jayaraj, General Secretary and Com.R.Aravindakshan Nair, Treasurer met Ms.Annie Moreas, Member (Finance), Shri.N.K.Yadav, Member (Services), Shri.S.K.Jain, DDG (Esatblishment) and Shri. Prachish Khanna, Director (Establishment ) in Sanchar Bhawan and discussed the issue of 78.2% IDA merger to BSNL Pensioners. As you may recall our earlier posting to the effect that the new Secretary, DoT had wanted certain clarifications from the Member (Services) on the cabinet note.

So today the Member (services), DDG (Estt) and Director (Estt) have met the Secretary, DoT and have clarified the points and both the Member (Services) and DDG (Estt) have stated that they are hopeful that now the Secretary may clear the file and submit to the Minister.

We have also sought a meeting with the Secretary, DoT, Shri.J.S.Deepak and hope to meet him tomorrow.
