AUAB BSNL Union will celebrate Black Day on 1st October 2020

BSNLnews BSNL TARIFF   2:22:00 PM

BSNL AUAB asked its employees to wear Black badges to celebrate "Customer Delight Month" starting October 1, 2020

All BSNL (AUAB) trade unions and associations have stated that they have decided to celebrate a Black Day on 1 October 2020 for the denial of 4G technology to Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL). 

The umbrella organization for all employee unions of the state-owned telecommunications operator said in a statement that "the cancellation of BSNL's 4G tender did serious damage to the relaunch of BSNL." It should be noted that the Indian government in October 2019 approved a "revival plan" of BSNL and MTNL with measures including spectrum allocation for 4G services.

The government does not want BSNL to launch 4G: AUAB बीएसएनएल Union

BSNL issued a call in early 2020 requiring suppliers to take care of the "annual commissioning and maintenance of the 4G mobile network". The operator noted that the tender winners will address approximately 50,000 BSNL sites and 7,000 MTNL sites in Delhi and Mumbai.

The race should open in late June after multiple delays. However, the confrontation between Chinese and Indian soldiers has led the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to place restrictions on BSNL to obtain telecommunications equipment from Chinese suppliers. In mid-July, the operator canceled its 4G tender.

BSNL Employee Union oppose over Reliance Jio Expansion in Ladakh

The AUAB said in a statement that "there is no credible domestic manufacturer of 4G equipment."

“In such a situation, the cancellation of BSNL's 4G tender on the grounds that BSNL has violated the rules of Prime Minister Make in India policy is untenable,” AUAB said in its circular. "This pictures shows that the central government does not want BSNL to launch its 4G service."

The AUAB said that the obstacles created in the roll-out of BSNL's 4G services led to the "near impossible" BSNL revival.

"Therefore, the future of BSNL, as well as the future of its employees is darkening," said the AUAB. "By seeing all this situations, AUAB decides to celebrate a Black Day on October 1, 2020, to express the anguish and agony of BSNL employees, for the denial of 4G technology to BSNL and thus to ruin their future".

The umbrella organization asked its employees to wear black badges while on duty on October 1, 2020. Additionally, the AUAB said it decided to organize a "hunger strike" on the same day, demanding that BSNL leadership and The Indian government takes "immediate action" to launch BSNL's 4G services.

AUAB will celebrate "Customer Delight Month" in October

The AUAB also asked its employees to observe a "Customer Delight Month" starting October 1, 2020. The umbrella organization in the circular asked its employees to dedicate the month of October to "improving the quality of services "and also to introduce new fixed, broadband and mobile telephony users.

"In addition, We AUAB also request employees to use the whole month to contact customers and find out about their complaints in order to find a solution," he said.

Crucially, it was also noted that faults on fixed lines, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and broadband connections "increased enormously" after the operator outsourced network maintenance and customer services.

"As a result, many broadband and landline connections are disconnected," AUAB said. “This is a matter of great concern to employees. It is decided that the AUAB writes to CMD BSNL, asking that immediate measures be taken to overcome this undesirable situation ”.

BSNL Employees Union (BSNL EU) backed Chinese companies, saying the implementation of 4G services is delayed and damaging the bsnl revival plans.

Communist Party affiliated Employee union (EU) Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) said that the delay in implementing BSNL 4G services is hampering the operator's recovery plans.

In support to Chinese companies Huwaei and ZTE, the BSNL Employees Union in their letter to the secretary of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) highlighted several problems, including the failure to implement the measures announced as part of the BSNL revival package.

In addition, BSNLEU said that BSNL management should address several key issues, including timely payment of wages to BSNL employees and reviewing non-executive wages. BSNL EU also said that management should create a single unit to manage BSNL's telephone factories in Mumbai, Calcutta and Jabalpur.

Recently RSS backed Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh affiliated Union Bharatiya Telecom Employees Union (BTEU BSNL) organized Nation wide agitation against Central Government anti-labor policies.

BSNLEU claims that vested interests block the launch of 4G

BSNLEU stated in the letter that the offer made by the operator to acquire 4G equipment "stopped because of the conspiracy traced by vested interests". Being a communist party affiliated union and recognized union in BSNL backed Chinese companies Huwaei and ZTE not to ban these companies to participate in 4G tender bidding.

Following the intense clash in the Ladakh valley in Galwan between Chinese and Indian troops, the Indian government is said to have told the DoT to rework the BSNL 4G tender.

The modified offer would prevent BSNL from supplying telecommunication equipment manufactured by Chinese companies. In addition, Niti Aayog, the government's group of political experts, is said to have suggested to BSNL to opt for indigenous products designed, developed and manufactured for its 4G network.

Niti Aayog's suggestion would not only ban Chinese sellers from bidding on BSNL, but would also ban European players such as Ericsson and Nokia.

At the end of March, BSNL launched a tender which requires suppliers to take care of the planning, engineering, supply, installation, testing, commissioning and annual maintenance of the 4G mobile network across India.

BSNL said that the bidders will handle 50,000 BSNL sites along with 7,000 MTNL sites located in the circles of Mumbai and Delhi. While the offer is currently active, BSNL has postponed the opening of the offer until 15 July.

"BSNL official not agreed on false statement made by communist party affiliated union that it a level playing field, against private operators, under the pretext of having BSNL implement the" Make in India policy".

The Indian government is required to immediately issue BSNL authorization to purchase 4G equipment, according to the offer already published, " said Communist union in their letter.

BSNLEU demands the government to implement Revival package

BSNLEU also noted that the government has not implemented measures other than the voluntary retirement scheme (VRS), even eight months after the announcement. The Indian government announced in October 2019 a relaunch package for BSNL which includes the deployment of 4G services and the issuance of a sovereign guarantee to BSNL to raise funds from the market.

"Almost 8 months have passed since the Indian government announced the BSNL revival package," said BSNLEU in its letter. "The government is required to take speedy measures to implement for revival of BSNL, as indicated in the reactivation package."

BSNLEU also asked BSNL management to take "immediate action" on 15 other lawsuits, including timely payment of wages and the creation of a single unit for its telecommunications factory.

BSNL employees were said, salary for the May month not to have been paid, while wages of contract workers have not been paid in the past year.
