January 30th 2016 is the 68th  anniversary of the martyrdom of Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation. He was shot down by a Hindu extremist on 30 January 1948, when he was proceeding to a Prayer Meeting.
On this day, the Nation pays its respectful homage to the great man who led the country in its decades long struggle for freedom from the British imperialists.

No Wage Revision in BSNL?

30 Saturday Jan 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in Uncategorized

≈ 6 Comments

It is reported that CMD BSNL has stated at a meeting at Bengaluru that unless there is  profit, wage revision can not take place in BSNL.
This is atrocious and unacceptable. The reason for loss to  BSNL is due to the wrong policies and anti-PSU decisions of the govt and the casual attitude of the top management, who mainly belong to DOT and not to BSNL. Despite this unhealthy position, workers under the call of the Forum are trying their best to improve services under the programme ” Service With A Smile”.
Any move to deny wage revision will be met with strong resistence from the workers.
As stated earlier in this column, it is high time to start the wage negotiation in BSNL.

Where are BSNL Cables?

30 Saturday Jan 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in Uncategorized

≈ 2 Comments

Thousands and thousands of kilometres of copper cables of Telecom Department/ now that of BSNL, lies under our roads unutilised. Our Comrades in some places report that even the details of these valuable cables are not available.
On the other side, BSNL is unable to provide land connections due to lack of cables.
Is it not possible to restore the cables already laid and lying under the roads unutilised and used them effevtively?

Enjoying Train Journey

30 Saturday Jan 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in Uncategorized

≈ 1 Comment

Journey by train has always been fascinating. And today I am going from New Delhi to Tirupati to attend the All India Conference of All India BSNL DOT Pensioners Association(AIBDPA). And interestingly, it is the same Kerala Express in which I used to travel from Thiruvananthapuram to Delhi and back, when I was the Circle Secretary, Kerala. Of course the travel then was in Sleeper, but now I travel by A/C class. I am now a senior citizen and get 40% concession on fare.
The compartment is better and train is a bit faster. But I miss the tea and coffee since I am unable to get sugarless coffee and tea in train. Once in a while they specially make it and give me. That is the consolation.
One thing remains the same. The train is almost always late by the time it reaches the destination.
The move of the Govt. to privatise this great organisation should be opposed and defeated.

Goa Airport being privatised

28 Thursday Jan 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

One more privatisation of Air Ports! Now it is Goa Airport which is being jointly operated by the Airport Authority of India and Indian Navy. Government is proposing to hand over the Airport completely to the private. It will be the first airport in the country which will have no shares of the state government. The only consolation is that the central government will have a Golden Share and that the AAI can also participate in the global tender.
We  strongly protest against the unjustified privatisation of Goa Airport.
