The 9th Convention of the Telecommunication Employees Association of Nepal (TEAN) is being held at Nepalganj from 28th to 30th March 2016. Com. Balbir Singh, President, BSNLEU, will be attending the convention as per the invitation of TEAN.

BSNLEU and TEAN have been always in close relationship for the last one decade or more. Both are the biggest unions in the telecom sector in their own countries and share a progressive out-look. They are part of the main stream of the working class. The delegates from TEAN had been attending All India Conferences of BSNLEU and delegates from BSNLEU attending the Conventions of TEAN. As General Secretary of BSNLEU, I have attended these conventions three or four times. I still remember the warm reception they gave to all of us delegates while in Nepal. We have also made maximum efforts to welcome them during their visits to India. Office-bearers have changed on both sides, but the ties remain strong.

Nepal has moved forward from a Hindu kingdom to a social secular democratic republic like India. We welcome the change and congratulate the people of Nepal and TEAN, who contributed for the welcome change.

We  convey our Warm Greetings and Best Wishes to the delegates and leaders who are attending the Convention and for the success of the Convention!  Let the close relationship continue and strengthen further!
