Union says this will help to obtain new subscriptions

Kozhikode: The Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) Employees Union has urged the telecom management to introduce a single window system for obtaining new subscriptions. This would immensely benefit the public desiring to be BSNL subscribers, union general secretary V.A.N. Namboodiri, told presspersons here on Wednesday.

Briefing about the three-day national executive committee meeting which concluded here on Wednesday, he said that the telecom employees would participate in the nationwide strike called by the All India Sponsoring Committee on December 14.

The strike had been called for implementing various demands, including protecting the Public Sector Units (PSUs) in the country, he said.

Mr. Namboodiri said the three-day meeting gave shape to agitations to counter the moves of the Centre to weaken and privatise the public sector Undertakings (PSUs).

A joint forum consisting of all PSUs would be formed in this regard in September-October.

He said that the Centre had promised to accord the status of Nava Ratna to the BSNL during its formation in 2000.
