By  bifurcation of the undivided A.P. Circle, new A.P.Circle has been inaugurated at Vijayawada in the presence of Communications Minister Manoj Sinha, IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, Broadcasting Minister Venkaiah Naidu and Chief Minister N.Chandrababu Naidu. CMD BSNL Anupam Shrivastava was also present. The Postal Circle also has been bifurcated and new A.P.Circle formed.

Undivided A.P.Circle which was the biggest in terms of employees, will have to step back in favour of Maharashtra Circle. However, with regard to area, Rajasthan will be the biggest Circle.

I hope that the new set up in new A.P.Circle will be effectively formed immediately so that neither the service nor the issues of the employees suffer. The assurances of the Chief Minister for  full support in providing infrastructure including land, building etc need to be honoured.

My Warm Greetings   to all our friends and well wishers on the occasion of Puja and other festivals!

MAKE THE CONFEDERATION PARLIAMENT MARCH ON 15TH DECEMBER 2016
A HISTORIC SUCCESS

COME ONE ! COME ALL !! COME IN HUNDREDS & THOUSANDS !!!

CHALO DELHI……. CHALO PARLIAMENT”

BSNL continues its march forward in providing new mobile connections. In September 2016, it has provided 22,25,569 new connections, thus keeping the record of providing more than 20 lakhs each for the last few month consecutively.

Hearty Congratulations to the BSNL Management and workers! Continue this Forward March! BSNL will certainly regain its past glory!

With extreme shock and sorrow, it is intimated that Com. H.L.Makkar, senior leader of BSNLEU, former Vice-President of E.III (N) and President of NTR Circle passed away on 05-10-2016 at Delhi. He was admitted to the hospital a few days back. He was 76 years.

Com.H.L.Makkar was the leader who inspired the NTR workers to join enmasse to the E.III(N)Union. His influence and vibrant leadership made the NTR circle a stronghold for the BSNLEU. The fact that he was the President of the BSNLEU NTR Circle union for more than 15 years itself shows the respect given to him by the workers.

Com.Makkar was a very close friend of mine. He gave all support to the CHQ during the difficult and critical days of 1990s. He was an excellent orator and could convince all with his effective speech. He was respected by the Management also.

His death is a big loss to BSNLEU and to all the BSNL workers.

I convey my heart felt condolences to the bereaved family, friends and comrades!

Hearty Congratulations to FACT Management, government and workers!

The loss making company which has stopped production and has restarted functioning with the help of state and central governments, has posted operational profit. The SAVE FACT campaign and the support of the people had also its effect.

After completion of this spectrum auction, government has got Rs.65, 789 crores, which is something less than expected. There was no bids for 700 MHz and 900 M Hz. All the major telecom companies were there, except BSNL and MTNL. These two PSUs are starved out of the spectrum for 4G and further.
The government should allot free spectrum to BSNL and MTNL so that they can compete with private companies and provide 4G and later further higher technologies.

It is a good decision by Railways. It has reduced the rate for the train travel insurance from 0.92 Paise to one Paise from today, 7th October. The Railways stated that this is a Diwali Bonanza.
