The Chairman and Convener of Bharatiya Doorsanchar Manch (BDM) writes to the Chairman and Convener of AUAB, proposing the constitution of a Joint Action Committee (JAC) comprising BDM and AUAB for the joint pursuit of common issues and collective struggle in the larger interest of BSNL employees.

Click here for the Letter

The recent Pilot Organisational Restructuring initiative in Uttarakhand has once again underlined the need for a strong and united response from all employee representative bodies. The Management proceeded with a major structural change without meaningful consultation with the representative forums, reinforcing the urgent need for coordinated action. Although the united efforts of employee organizations have temporarily stalled the implementation, the restructuring order has neither been withdrawn nor cancelled and may be revived at any time.

Encouragingly, the coordination displayed by the Circle representatives of different organizations during this issue demonstrated that whenever employee organizations work together, the confidence of employees is strengthened and the collective voice of the workforce becomes much more effective. BDM believes that the time has now come to institutionalize this spirit of unity at the national level.

The employees of BSNL expect all representative organizations to rise above organisational boundaries whenever their collective interests are involved. With this spirit and commitment, BDM has once again requested AUAB to join hands in constituting a Joint Action Committee (JAC) to pursue common issues through united action in the larger interest of BSNL and its employees.

Join the National X Campaign on 10th July 2026 (Friday) from 12:00 Noon to 3:00 PM in support of the long-pending demand for implementation of Standard E2 & E3 Pay Scales and issuance of revised Presidential Orders.
