The first Central Executive Committee of the BSNL Casual and Contract Workers Federation after the Lucknow AIC, is scheduled to be held at Dhanbad on 3rd November 2012. The period after the last AIC was tumultuous with continuous struggles in many SSAs against exploitation and minimum wages. Gains have been achieved in many centres and in some centres, victimisation and retrenchment has taken place. All this have to be reviewed and strategy and correct decisions taken in the CEC.

The Demands day organised by the BSNLEU on 1st November has enthused the Casual Contract workers and the struggles will be intensified with the solidarity and support of the regular employees.
