Unconfirmed reports have been received that the Cabinet in its meeting on 20th January has cleared the Pension Revision of pre-2007 BSNL retirees. As per the 20th April Strike agreement reached between Joint Action Committee and Communications Minister, the Cabinet Note on this issue has been submitted to the Cabinet a few weeks earlier.
On contacting the Member (Services), Telecom Commission by Com.V.A.N.Namboodiri, Convener, Joint Action Committee, he informed that the matter can be confirmed after getting the decision from the Communications Minister.
This is a great achievement for which BSNLEU and Joint Forum has been fighting all along. The concered retirees will be getting the Pension Revision from 01-01-2007.
