1. Assurance was given by Hon’ble MoSC(I/C), to get the affordability clause of 3^rd PRC relaxed, w.r.t. BSNL. However, the DoT has not started the preparation of the Cabinet Note for getting the affordability clause of the 3^rd PRC relaxed for BSNL.
2. Direction was given by Hon’ble MoSC(IC) to the Secretary(T), to take action for collecting pension contribution from BSNL on actual basic pay, as per the government order, instead of the maximum of the pay scale. DoT has not taken any action in this regard till date.
3. Hon’ble MoSC(I/C) directed the Secretary, Telecom, in the meeting held on 24.02.2018, to take necessary action for revision of pension of BSNL Pensioners. No action has been taken so far.

Regarding pay revision, pension contribution on actual basic pay and revision of pension of BSNL Pensioners, the Hon’ble MoSC(I/C) assured that he would discuss all these issues with the Secretary, Telecom, on 3^rd August, 2018.

Hon’ble MoSC(I/C) further stated that the employees should earn revenue for BSNL, in addition to raising the demands. The AUAB leaders replied that they are giving tough competition to Reliance JIO, who is providing services based on predatory pricing. Shri M.B. Rajesh, MP, extended his thanks to the Hon’ble MoSC(I/C) for granting the meeting and discussing the issues.

We extended our sincere gratitude and thanks to Hon’ble MoSC (I/C) for granting the meeting and also extended thanks to Shri M.B. Rajesh, MP, for arranging the meeting.

The Central Executive Committee Meeting held at Kshirsagar Hall , Jain Hills, Jalgaon, Maharashtra on 30-31, July, 2018 turned out to be historic and a milestone in the history of AIBDPA. Veteran leader and President, AIBDPA, Com. A.K.Bhattacharjee presided over the meeting. The CEC started with lighting of lamp by the Guests and leaders. Com.R.N.Patil, Circle Secretary, Maharashtra welcomed all the participants and all the leaders were honoured in the traditional Maharashtra culture. 

Com.Ajit Abhyankar, noted intellectual and member of CITU state council delivered the inaugural address in the open session at 1030 on 30th inst.  He came down heavily on Narendra Modi led central government for the attacks being meted out to the Public Sector Enterprises and the neglect towards BSNL is nothing but part of this anti-PSU policy.The hollowness of its claim of corruption free has since been thoroughly exposed with the Rs.50,000 crore scam in the Rafale fighter jets deal with the French government. Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd, a renowned PSU, was sidelined and Anil Ambani owned company, formed just days before the deal, was given undue advantage in the deal, showing scant regard to the “make in India” slogan of the BJP government. 

Com.V.A.N.Namboodiri, Advisor spoke on the 3rd PRC, wage revision and pension revision on which many struggles have been launched by AIBDPA and AUAB. Our stand on pension revision is very clear and logical and we have to go forward to achieve it, he said. Shri.

Nair, Treasurer submitted the unaudited accounts for 2016-17 and 2017-18.  22 circle secretaries and the CHQ office bearers participated in the active discussion. The report and accounts were adopted after reply by the General Secretary. The resolution Committee with Com.Susanta Ghosh Vice President (Convenor), Coms. G.G.Patil, AGS, K.R.Yadav, Circle Secretary (UP East), Mihirdas Gupta, Kolkata Telephones and N.Guruprasad, Circle Secretary, Kerala presented resolutions on important issues and were adopted unanimously. The sub committee with Coms.S.Mohandoss, Vice President (Convenor), Adhir Kr Sen, Circle Secretary, Telecom Factory & Stores, Kolkata and K.R.Yadav, Circle Secretary, UP(East) was entrusted to recommend necessary amendments to the constitution for consideration by the 3rd Triennial All India Conference at Kolkata.
