The wage negotiation of the BSNL non-executives started on 20-07-2018 in a cordial atmosphere. All the official side and union side members participated. The union representatives assured their full co-operation to ensure finalisation of the wage agreement  at the shortest time. The management side explained the provisions in guidelines of the DPE, communicated vide letter dated 24-11-2017. The staff side members sought clarification in this regard and the management assured to do the needful. The next meeting is decided to be held on 09-08-2018.

BSNLEU and NFTE leaders met thereafter and decided to have closer co-ordination and to submit a joint memorandum. Really a welcome development.

It is to be remembered here that the relentless and continuous struggle by AUAB including strikes and the powerful March to Sanchar Bhawan have made the impossible, possible.
