Rumors  spread by NFTE 22-07-2010: Rumors were spread by NFTE stating that 500 BSNL EU members in Andhra Pradesh migrated and joined NFTE. No BSNL EU Member joined in NFTE. BSNL EU membership in AP is more than 16000 and NFTE membership is below 5000. It is a fact that employees are not fools to stay with a 'Sinking Ship'. They are aware of the fighting spree of BSNL Employees Union, it's policies and more confident ever on its leadership. These rumors are only to boost the morale of their ready-to-quit employees. Very hard try to retain their membership. Settlement of major issues like wage revision and promotion policy for non-executives, is driving many employees towards BSNL Employees Union, looking forward for a stronger Union to safe guard the interests of BSNL and it's 3 lakh work force.    BSNL Employees Union  AP Circle

	Congratulations to CHQ for the magnificent wage revision !   New salaries are paid in all SSAs, as per the wage revision orders. Greetings are pouring in congratulating the Union for the magnificent achievement even after the workers feeling that their wage revision is delayed. Is it really delayed ? No. Only in very few PSUs among 240+ PSUs, wage revisions are done. In many PSUs including Maharatna PSUs like ONGC, NTPC etc., wage negotiations are going on. Even in MTNL, the other telecom PSU, after protracted tripartite discussions between Labour commissioner central, Management and Unions, agreement was made on 12th May. In BSNL, when negotiations are going on with the management, many hurdles were created by some anti-worker unions to hamper the process of wage negotiation. Some unions played tooth and nail to side track the workers with a declaration distributed among the workers to accept for 10 years periodicity and fitment offered by the management. Some unions spread the malafied news linking the wage revision to the recognition elections. Even though we got our wages revised during 2002, those were only migration scales from Central govt wage structure to a PSU. Since this wage revision is the first wage revision as a PSU, as promised earlier, BSNL Employees Union has got the responsibility of striking a better wage revision agreement with safe guards and  bench marks setup for the future wage revisions. That too, in any wage revision agreements, achieving scales without stagnation is a Herculean task in close ended scales. This is achieved in this wage revision. Many workers who were suffering from the stagnation of scales and lost their increments from 2007, got full benefit of this wage revision and greeting the union for the exemplary achievement, congratulating all the leaders in CHQ, especially Com P Asoka Babu, DGS from AP Circle who as a member of the wage committee played an important role in the wage negotiations to achieve and strike better wage revision agreement.    BSNL Employees Union  AP Circle

• 16-04-2009: Yes! We lack that ‘expertise’ & ‘experiences’ which NFTE-FNTO boast! FNTO has alleged that BSNLEU has got neither experience nor expertise to clinch any issue. We agree with them that BSNLEU does not have that ‘experience’ and that ‘expertise’ to clinch issues. A perusal of the track record will establish that NFTE-FNTO have sufficiently that ‘experience’ and that ‘expertise’ which we lack. The following few examples are sufficient for proving this.

• 15-04-2009: BSNL Employees union succeeded in making the agreement of Implementation of scheme for various Employees' Loans through Union Bank of India

• 15-04-2009: In the meeting of the wage negotiation held today, 15th April 2009, the management proposed that for Five year period agreement, fitment benefit would be less than 30% but it can be bargained. Union demanded that the fitment benefit should be as per executives with five year periodicity also. Management side proposed three times of basic pay as advance, The Union rejected it and demanded that it should be a substantial amount. The official side will discuss with the management about the demand of the staff side and will hold the next meeting shortly. The Unions threatened strike if the justified demands of the workers are not accepted.
                 Let us be prepared for serious struggle if the management does not agree for our demands.
