Hello, I am a fellow subscriber of BSNL from West Bengal, I’ve spent years being an user of BSNL prepaid connection. Now that BSNL was drastically dipping towards its bottom the revival package came as a live saver for the PSU,
I would like to say that the news of closing bsnl during Dushhera was a shock to users like us and the unions and associations replied befittingly to it. Now the same is occurring again from the same media house as Indian Express Published an article today that Govt is going to dis invest over BSNL and MTNL. Please clarify your stand regarding this article.

The employees are completely against closure or privatisation of BSNL BSNL is a national asset.
