Today, 20th April, I had the chance of attending the All India Conference of the BSNL SC/ST Welfare Association (SEWA BSNL) at Chennai. There were a good number of delegates and visitors in the open session. Com. Babu Singh, President of the Association presided and Com. Raveendran, GS, welcomed. Leaders of TEPU, FNTBEA etc. as also both CGMs of T.Nadu and Chennai and other VIPs were present. In my address, I mainly dealt of the issues of the SC/ST as also that of BSNL and its workers and activities of UF and JCA. Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, BSNLEU addressed the delegates session in the morning. In the morning I had discussions with the AIBDPA leaders, Coms. C.K.Narasimhan, Arumugham, Jayavelu and Com. Govindaraj, CS, Chennai and others. AIBDPA is making good progress both in T.Nadu and Chennai.
