PENSION REVISION-MASSIVE RESPONSE FOR DEMANDS DAY CALLED BY JOINT FORUM OF BSNL/MTNL PENSIONERS ASSOCIATIONS.
The call of the Joint Forum of BSNL/MTNL Pensioners Associations to observe Demands Day on 02-07-2024 by holding demonstrations at all levels and submitting a memorandum addressed to the Hon’ble Minister of Communications and Secretary, DoT through respective CGMs and GMs has been implemented with huge participation of pensioners throughout the country.
The only demand put forward was Pension Revision with 15% fitment from 01-01-2017, delinking wage revision has become a burning issue of BSNL/MTNL pensioners due to the neglect and apathy by the government and the DoT bureaucracy for the last 90 months. Therefore they have utilised the opportunity to express their strong protest, anguish and resentment braving inclement weather including heavy rain in many parts of the country. On behalf of the Joint Forum, we would like to salute and congratulate all the participants.
Of course, the Demands Day is the first programme and the Joint Forum will meet shortly and decide the dates of the second and third phases, CCA Office March and Chalo Delhi.
