A joint meeting of the General Secretaries of Unions and Associations of BSNL was held on 10/10/2025, at 1230 Hrs in the AIGETOA CHQ Office at IR Hall, Eastern Court New Delhi to discuss the continued vindictive actions by the CGM, Chennai and Tamilnadu Circles.
All General Secretaries of the constituent Unions and Associations participated in the meeting and expressed serious concern over the continued harassment of Executives and Employees of both the important Circles, despite the discussions held with Director HR, BSNL Board on 06/10/2025.
The forum noted with concern that, instead of adhering to the spirit of reconciliation discussed during the meeting with Director HR, the Chennai TD Circle Administration has further escalated its vindictive approach by issuing fresh threatening letters dated 08/10/2025. This has completely eroded the trust built during the discussions at Corporate Office.
After detailed deliberation, the following is decided unanimously:
- A joint letter will be submitted to the CMD BSNL seeking immediate resolution of the issue by withdrawing all vindictive actions and replacing the CGM of Tamilnadu and Chennai Circles.Copy<<<>>
- If the issue is not resolved by 16/10/2025, the Unions and Associations of BSNL will intensify the agitational programme with Lunch Hour Demonstrations across all BSNL offices on 17/10/2025, followed by further intensified organizational programs till corrective action is taken by Management on this issue.
The forum expressed that the continued administrative high-handedness in Tamil Nadu and Chennai Circles reflects a serious lapse and undermines industrial harmony within BSNL. It was reiterated that the management must act promptly to restore peace and discipline in these circles by implementing the assurances given during the Director HR meeting.
The Unions and Associations of BSNL stand united in their commitment to protect the dignity, rights, and welfare of BSNL employees and will not tolerate any vindictive or discriminatory actions against staff and leaders.
From General Secretaries,
Unions and Associations of BSNL
