Workers across Noida and the NCR region have been continuously protesting against low wages, exploitation, repression, poor working conditions, and wage disparity. The workers have rejected the inadequate wage hike and are demanding a minimum wage of ₹26,000, proper duty conditions, and full Trade Union rights. As per media reports, more than 40,000 industrial workers have been on protest since 13th April 2026, and the agitation has intensified with police clashes, road blockades, and incidents of violence across multiple industrial sectors following the State Government’s administrative  action. This struggle has now emerged as part of a wider national movement for wage enhancement and against increasing exploitation of the working class. BSNL Employees Union extends its full support and solidarity to the struggling workers and strongly condemns the brutal police attack and repression unleashed by the State Government. The Union joins all Central Trade Unions in demanding that the government immediately resolve the issue through meaningful negotiations with the workers fighting in the industrial areas of Noida and NCR.

The government has extended the tenure of Shri A. Robert J. Ravi, DDG (Standards, Research & Innovation), DoT, who is presently holding the additional charge as CMD, BSNL, for a further period of three months from 15th April 2026 to 14th July 2026, or until a regular appointment is made, whichever is earlier. As per media reports, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has issued the necessary notification in this regard after the approval of the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC).This decision has been issued by the Department of Telecommunications under the Ministry of Communications and is aimed at maintaining administrative stability in the company.

The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has constituted a high-level committee to recommend measures on HR issues concerning both executives and non-executives in BSNL, and as per the notification, the committee has been asked to submit its report within three weeks. From the BSNL Management side, only the CMD, BSNL and Director (HR) have been included as members. It may be recalled that, in the meeting held on 7th January 2026 under the chairmanship of the Hon’ble Prime Minister, specific directions were issued to DoT regarding the staff strength of BSNL. It is unfortunate that, although the matter directly concerns employees and important HR-related issues, neither BSNL Management nor DoT has sought the views of the recognised Union and Associations. In view of this, BSNL Employees Union will discuss the matter with other Unions and Associations, and a common approach will be submitted to BSNL Management as well as to the Secretary, DoT, on this important issue. A copy of the notification is attached herewith.

BSNLEU conveys its heartiest greetings and best wishes to all members, employees, workers, and the people at large on the auspicious occasions of Vaisakhi, Vishu, Tamil New Year, Mesadi, Vaisakhadi, and Bohag Bihu. These vibrant festivals, celebrated across different parts of our country, symbolize the joy of harvest, the beginning of a new year, unity in diversity, and the rich cultural heritage of India. On this happy occasion, BSNLEU wishes that the New Year brings peace, prosperity, happiness, good health, and success to everyone and their families. 

Best wishes to all.

BSNLEU, डॉ. बी. आर. अंबेडकर को अपनी विनम्र श्रद्धांजलि अर्पित करता है। 

कल हमारे देश के महानतम नेताओं में से एक डॉ. बी. आर. अंबेडकर की 135वीं जयंती है। हम इस नेता को एक महान समाज सुधारक के रूप में याद करते हैं; उन्होंने हमें सभी प्रकार की सामाजिक और आर्थिक असमानताओं के विरुद्ध संघर्ष करना सिखाया। भारतीय संविधान के निर्माता के रूप में, उन्होंने हमारे राष्ट्र को एक धर्मनिरपेक्ष और लोकतांत्रिक संविधान प्रदान किया है। अपनी जयंती के इस पावन अवसर पर BSNLEU सभी प्रकार की सामाजिक और आर्थिक असमानताओं को समाप्त करने के संघर्ष में स्वयं को पुनः समर्पित करने का संकल्प लेता है। BSNLEU हमारे संविधान के धर्मनिरपेक्ष और लोकतांत्रिक स्वरूप की रक्षा करने का भी प्रण लेता है।
