According to Anupam Shrivastava, CMD BSNL, has stated that the company is managing its operational maintenance expenses and salary of employees from its own resources. It is self sufficient on as at present. The losses have come down during the last few years, from Rs.8,851 crores in 2011-12 to Rs. 7,884 crores in 2012-13, Rs. 7,019 in 2013-14 and Rs. 7,265 in 2014-15. The revenue has increased from Rs. 27,128 crore in 2013-14 to Rs. 27,996 in 2014-15.
According to CMD BSNL, the Revenue is expected to increase to Rs. 42,000 crores by 2018-19.
The continuous effort of the workers to improve the services and the new schemes have helped in improvement.But that is not sufficient. Even now, the annual loss is more than Rs.7,000. This has got to be reduced and the revenue has got to be increased much more.
The government should change its anti-BSNL policy and assist the PSU to come back to its past glory.
