It is reported in today’s  “Business Line”, that the Communications Minister Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad will meet the Members of Parliament today evening to discuss about the ‘Revival of BSNL.’ The successful Two Days Strike by the BSNL Employees on 21-22 April has made compulsions on the Minister to act. Forum has contacted MPs to focus our issues in the meeting. It is, however, not clear who are MPs being invited.

The Minister has not called the Forum of BSNL Unions for a meeting so far. The Forum has requested for a meeting five times during the last 10 months, since the NDA government took over, but no reply or invitation.
