WAGE REVISION IN BSNL- A MIRAGE?

Media reported that the Cabinet meeting held on 19-7-2017 presided over by PM Shri Narendra Modi approved the third Pay Revision Committee report. But, so far no official communication on this decision has come out.

Some organizations of the BSNL Executives claim that Cabinet has approved the PRC report and DPE will issue notification this week. Good. Some other organizations feel that even if DPE issues notification, the BSNL Board may not revise the wages of Executives in BSNL since the Company did not earn profit during the last three consecutive years. So they have decided to go on one day’s strike on 27-7-2017. Some other organizations do not join this strike for their own reasons.

All of them want PRC report should be implemented and wage of serving staff in BSNL should be revised.

But, there is no unity in action. That is the tragedy

The United Forum which organizes the strike admits now that there is no chance of wage revision in BSNL. They are the same people who demanded pension revision along with this wage revision. Along with the NONE!

We anticipated this situation three years ago. Hence we demanded pension revision with CPC fitment formula.

We wish the serving staff all success in their efforts to get wage revision. All should realize that unity is the prerequisite for any such struggle.
