According to the reports so far received, the Lunch Hour Demonstration held today as per the call of the Forum of BSNL Unions was massively participated everywhere. The workers shouted slogans demanding ITS repatriation at the earliest. They demanded that if the repatriation of ITS to DOT is not implemented or permanent deputation for ITS is allowed, then all the 2.74 lakhs executives and non-executives also should be granted the same facility to avoid discrimination and injustice to the employees.
Savingrams were sent to Prime minister, Cabinet Secretary, Communications Minister, Secretary DOT and CMD BSNL demanding immediate repatriation of ITS or permanent deputation to all employees as is being proposed by the DOT and BSNL management for all employees.
The next programme of action is One Day Dharna on 15th October 2012 at SSA/Circle/ All India levels.
BSNL workers under the Forum of BSNL Unions/Associations are preparing to make the programmes a great success.
