It is reported that the government is proposing another VRS for employees of the MTNL. About 5,300 of the existing 46,000 employees are proposed to be given the VRS, who are about 20% of the staff who are aged 50 and above. This the 4th VRS being implemented in MTNL.
The government is also proposing to sell the assets of MTNL in Delhi and Mumbai.
The reaction of the unions/associations has not been mentioned. We are in touch with them.

Proposed vrs in Mtnl ,I guess,will b welcomed by officers and employees. As Delhi it e and mubaikars more materialists than labor rights movements.they thinkgrab it today who knows what happens tomorrow.
I think that may not be the case now. The unions are discussing the matter. I think that the Unions will strongly oppose the present move,which is beneficial neither to employees nor to the company. It is part of the scheme of destroying the company and its services.
