[20.07.2009]Defeat the conspiracy of the management and its agents <
[18.07.2009] 40th Anniversary Banks Nationalisation :- 40 year back 19th July 1969 14 Indian Private Banks nationalised which were suffering loss also lack of accountability and satisfactory service. They include Indian Bank, Canara Bank, Punjab National Bank, Syndicate Bank etc. All these Banks are strong and efficient and has contributed much to the wealth of the Nation. They saved the country to a high extent as bulwarks against the drastic global recession.
The present Government is trying to destabilize these PSUs by disinvestment, merger etc. We convey our greetings on the 40th Anniversary of Nationalisation and fully supports their struggle against Disinvestment and privatisation.

NFTE will join Programme on 22.07.2009:- NFTE in its website has published its decision to participate in the “Anti-Disinvestment Day” programme called by CPSTU. Joint Forum will only be happy to organize the same jointly.
[17.07.2009] Simple Commonsense, Comrade
Promotion Policy – NFTE Comments : - NFTE in its website has commented that while in the website of BSNLEU it is stated that the Promotion Policy is approved by DoT but in Telecrusader July, 2009 it is stated that General Secretary met Secretary, DoT and demanded for approval of Promotion Policy.
It is simple commonsense, Comrade. The website information is latest while the Telecrusader information is earlier one. The website news was dated 02.07.2009, while the Telecrusader was given for printing on 30.06.2009. NFTE certainly should understand these simple things as they also are publishing journals and have got website.
[16.07.2009] Who are the Agents of Management?
A perusal of the following will clearly reveal who are the agents of management.
1. Who agreed for Ban on creation of posts in 1984/85? - NFTE – FNTO
2. Who agreed to reduce 1,50,000 vacancies in the name of restructure of cadres? - NFTE – FNTO
3. Who agreed to surrender supervisory posts for getting BCR Promotion? – NFTE – FNTO
4. Who surrendered FR 22(i)(a)(i) in 1999 for promotions? - NFTE – FNTO
5. Who agreed for corporatisation which has resulted in many difficulties for workers? - NFTE – FNTO
6. Who agreed for VRS for 50,000 BSNL Workers in National Council? - NFTE – FNTO
7. Who gave such memorandum to V CPC which resulted in reduced pay scales for Telecom Cadres compared to Postal & other CGES? - NFTE – FNTO
8. Who demanded Rs.1000/- extra only to BSNL Workers on Conversion from DoT to BSNL? - NFTE-FNTO
9. Who are now getting signatures from employees for accepting whatever is offered by management, even when it is less than justified? - NFTE – FNTO
After BSNLEU got recognition, the VRS was got dropped. FR 22(i)(a)(i) has been restored in New Promotion Policy. Promotion Policy has been signed reducing the decades old discrimination between executives and non-executives.
The workers understand all these. And that is why despite the fact that NFTE & FNTO which both together got about 1,45,000 votes in the first verification have been reduced to 95,000 in the IV Verification and BSNLEU which got 90,000 in the first verification got 1,24,000 in the IV Verification defeating the formers alliance by more than 28,000 votes.
[16.07.2009]Is NFTE conveniently forgetting or purposely hiding facts? <
[15.07.2009] HOW FUNNY ! :- FNTO has put in its website a form asking workers to sign and submit it to management with regard to wage revision. In the letter it is stated that “Kindly award pay scales as recommended by second pay review committee.”
Second Pay Review Committee was appointed to recommend wage revision for executives only and it had no connection with the pay revision non-executives and not recommended any pay scales for non-executives. But interestingly FNTO is asking the workers to request the management to award pay scales recommended by the Committee !
Funny Indeed !
[15.07.2009]Due to Mismanagement
BSNL had to pay Rs.1000 crore as extra interest - CAG Report
In what highlights mismanagement in government-run companies, BSNL failed to return a government loan of Rs. 7,500 crore when it had a disposable reserve of more than Rs. 18,000 crore. This resulted in the company paying an interest of over Rs. 1,000 crore.
The country's biggest telecom company parked its surplus funds in banks to earn an interest of 6% - 7% when it was already paying interest of 14.5% for the loan.
"BSNL failed to return government loan of Rs. 7,500 crore inspite of having adequate cash reserves of Rs. 18,829 crore as of March 2005 parked in bank deposits with average rate of return of 6.19% to 7.38% per annum against the rate of interest of 14.50% for the loan," a CAG report on BSNL tabled in Parliament on Monday said.
"This imprudent financial management resulted in excess expenditure of Rs. 1,089 crore on interest payment,” it added. [Source: The Times of India, dated 14.07.2009]
[15.07.2009]BSNL, MTNL lose Rs 1,547 cr due to financial disorder

The report also brought out alleged financial mismanagement, wasteful expenditure and excess payment aggregating Rs.1,164.38 crore by BSNL. [Source: The Economic Times, dated 14.07.2009]

[10.07.2009] Joint Forum calls for demonstration on 22nd July, 2009, against IPO in BSNL <
[10.07.2009] Utter Confusion ! They don’t know what they demand:- It is observed at FNTO (CHQ) website that they demanded to BSNL Management: “IDA Pay Scales of the non-executives w.e.f. 01.01.2007 in the same line and fixation formula adopted for executives without any periodicity.”
This actually means (apart from periodicity), they don’t want benefit of merger of 50% IDA, which has already been approved by DPE but not yet implemented for BSNL executives. Moreover, they want that non-executives pay scales be constructed in relation to present E-1 minimum pay of Rs.16,400/-, since proposed E-1 A pay scale has not yet been granted.
THEY MAY INSIST ON LOWER BENEFIT FOR NON-EXECUTIVES, BUT BSNLEU CAN’T COMPROMISE ON LONG TERM INTEREST OF THE EMPLOYEES.
In their memorandum supposed to be signed by employees, they demanded: “Kindly award pay scales as recommended by Second Pay Review Committee.”
What a joke indeed !
2nd Pay Review Committee was for executives and its recommendations confined to executives only. No pay scale for non-executives recommended by 2nd Pay Review Committee.
