Dear Friends,
We extend our sincere thanks and gratitude to all of you for coming forward and supporting the call of Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS). Your participation has strengthened the collective voice of BSNL employees at a very crucial stage.
We express our heartfelt thanks to the central leadership of BMS for adopting the resolution to pursue the 9-point charter of demands submitted by Bharatiya Doorsanchar Manch (BDM). Importantly, the core demands of BSNL employees, namely implementation of 3rd PRC, Standard Pay Scales and Superannuation Benefits for BSNL Recruits have been prominently included in the Memorandum submitted to the Ministry of Labour at Shram Shakti Bhavan, New Delhi today.
The BSNL-specific demands reflected in the main Memorandum are:
1] Implement 3rd PRC recommendations and standard pay scales for BSNL/MTNL employees.
2] Extend full pensionary benefits as per Rule 37-A to BSNL/MTNL recruits.
For the first time in history, a major national trade union has adopted BSNL-specific demands with such clarity and emphasis. This significant development has brought the issues of 3rd PRC, standard pay scales, and 30% superannuation benefits for BSNL recruits to the highest level through the world’s largest trade union platform.
We firmly believe that sustained persuasion at the topmost level is the only effective way to achieve resolution of the long-pending issues of 3rd PRC implementation and fulfilment of the residual issues of 2nd PRC related to pay scales and superannuation.
We once again thank each one of you for your solidarity and support to the call given by the central leadership of Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh.
