The entire working class in India as per the call of the 11 Central Trade Unions, including INTUC and BMS are preparing for a nationwide strike on 28th February 2012 on the important and vital demands of the workers, including trade unions rights, against price rise, opposing disinvestment – privatisation etc. Almost all the non-executive unions have decided to participate in the strike.
BSNL is a victim of the LPG – Liberalisation, Privatisation, Globalisation policy of the government. All the executives and non-executives under the banner of Joint Action Committee have gone on strike several times compelling the government to accept the genuine demands of the BSNL and BSNL workers. It is,therefore, necessary and appropriate that the executive associations, which have already declared support and solidarity to the 28th February strike, may take a decision to participate in the same. Let all of us march together to save BSNL and to defend the rights of the workers.
Dear Sir,
Why we cant ask for repatriation of BSNL to DOT..What is the wrong with it. As govt. is using bsnl for its social obligations we cannot make profits from it.. So employees shouldn’t be suffered for their no mistake..Every day management is withdrawing one by one facilities which is causing demotivation to employees..
Dear Comrade Santhosh,
The JAC had already taken the issue with the Government several times, but the latter has rejected the same.
If Executive Associations have got their any issue to be taken by Central Trade Unions, then only , that too only SNEA may as participated earlier in the past in one of the previous General Strike in BSNL.
