Com.K.G.Jayaraj, General Secretary has met Shri.S.K.Jain, DDG (Estt), DoT on 19-11-2018 and discussed the issue of pension revision.. General Secretary sought the progress on the issue after the meeting between AUAB leaders and Secretary , DoT on 02-11-2018. The DDG replied that internal finance has been entrusted to prepare the reply to the queries raised by the Department of Pension and Pensioners Welfare on pension revision before wage revision. He also hinted that the mindset of DoT is still that of pension revision along with wage revision. Thus it is very clear that DoT is going back of their earlier stand.

Therefore the indefinite strike called by the AUAB from 03-12-2018 is crucial to the demand of pension revision as that of other important demands of wage revision, 4G specrtum to BSNL and Pension contribution on actual basic pay.
