Three and half Lakhs of BSNL workers, executives and Non-Executives will  resort to a complete strike on 15th December 2011 on the very important issues of the BSNL and its workers. The struggle is spear-headed by the Joint Action Committee of BSNL Associations/Unions. BSNLWA headed by NFTE has also joined the strike. The Graduate Engineers Association has given full moral support.  The All India BSNL DOT Pensioners Association has declared full support and solidarity to the strike and will participate in the demonstration etc. BSNL Casual and Contract Workers Federation has called upon their members to go on strike along with regular employees. It is only FNTO which is opposing the strike due to  flimsy  and on parochial grounds. But in many places even members of FNTO will join the strike.

The issues focussed in the strike are most important to the workers and BSNL itself. The Government and the management has utterly failed to settle the issues. Hence the strike.

Make it a complete success. Let it be a warning to the Government and the management. Let them not sleep over the justified issues of the workers. Today or tomorrow they will be compelled to settle the issues due to our struggle. March ahead with confidence.
