It is very difficult to believe that Com.Jothi is no more. Another precious life has been snatched away by the dreaded Corona. He was admitted to CMC, Vellore three days ago and was not responding to medicines, according to the doctors and breathed his last at 8 PM on 02-05-2021. A militant and vibrant leader with innovative ideas on functioning has contributed enormously to strengthen AIBDPA in Vellore District. Com.Jothi was very active in the progressive movement, particularly CPI(M). It is a great loss not only to our organisation but also to the progressive movement. Red Salute to Com.Jothi. Heartfelt Condolences to the bereaved family friends and Comrades

NCCPA has decided to hold a Seminar on May Day , 01-05-2021. Com.K Hemalatha, National President , CITU will address the seminar.
The seminar is scheduled to be held online from 3PM to 5.30PM on 01-05-2021. All CHQ office bearers, Circle Secretaries, Circle office bearers and District Secretaries are requested to participate in the seminar and make it a success. The link for the meeting will be given by 30th April, 2021.
It is a good decision in the right direction to form a Co-ordination Committee of BSNLEU, AIBDPA & BSNL CCWF. It is a fact that BSNLEU is the parent organisation for AIBDPA & BSNLCCWF, as both these organisations were founded by BSNLEU.
The meeting of the representatives of these organisations was held online on 17-04-2021 in a very cordial manner and serious discussion took place on the important issues confronting the employees, pensioners, contract workers and BSNL. The details have been narratted in the circular given hereunder.
Circle Secretaries are requested to initiate efforts to form the Co-ordination Committee at Circle and District levels. Two representatives of each organisation , preferrably President and Secretary will constitute the committee. Office bearers are to be elected in the same pattern of CHQ level Committee.
No doubt, the formation of Co-ordination Committee of our three organisations would strengthen the relationship between these organisations and thus help to effctively organise the struggles unitedly in future.
