🙏 Dear Friends🙏

As per the decision taken in the 21st All India Conference organized at Puri, Odisha by our umbrella organization, the world’s largest trade union, Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS), a call has been given to observe 25th February 2026 as “Protest Day.” More than 20 unions from across India and abroad actively participated in this important 21st All India Triennial Conference at Puri.

Under this “Protest Day,” demonstrations and movements are being organized across the country at the state and district levels on 25th February.

The major demands related to employees of BSNL / MTNL included in the charter of demands for the Protest Day are as follows:

🔹 Implement 3rd PRC Recommendations and Standard Pay Scales for BSNL/MTNL Employees

🔹 Extend Full Pensionary Benefits as per Rule 37-A to BSNL/MTNL Recruits.

Both these demands are directly linked to employees’ financial security, standard pay structure and future stability. These long-pending issues require immediate resolution.

We appeal to all colleagues to participate in large numbers in this “Protest Day” and demonstrate unity so that our genuine demands can be effectively raised and resolved.

A memorandum on the letter head of Bharatiya Doorsanchar Manch may also be signed by all the colleagues and sent by post to PMO by each District and Circle. The draft memorandum is attached herewith.
