Dear SEWA Members,

Our heartfelt congratulations and sincere thanks to every SEWA member, Circle/SSA office bearer, and well-wisher for making the Nationwide Black Badge Campaign on 28.07.2026 a grand success across the country.

The overwhelming participation has once again demonstrated that SEWA stands firmly with AUAB in safeguarding the interests of BSNL and its employees.

As highlighted in the AUAB notice, the agitation is against the unilateral implementation of the Uttarakhand Restructuring Pilot Project, without meaningful discussions with AUAB, and the decisions leading to forced postings, denial of legitimate consultation, and other actions that are detrimental to employees and the future of BSNL.

The successful Black Badge Campaign has sent a strong and united message to the BSNL Management that employees will not remain silent against any anti-employee and anti-BSNL decisions.
Friends, this is only the beginning. We must continue the same zeal, unity, discipline, and determination in the forthcoming AUAB programmes:

31.07.2026 – Nationwide Lunch Hour Demonstration and submission of memoranda to Circle/BA Heads and CMD BSNL.

03.08.2026 – Nationwide Twitter/X Campaign to draw the attention of the DoT and the Government, demanding immediate rollback of the restructuring proposal.

SEWA firmly believes that our unity is our greatest strength. Together, we shall continue our struggle for the welfare of employees, the protection of their rights, and the growth and revival of BSNL.

Once again, thank you for your wholehearted support and active participation. Let us move forward with the same spirit and make the forthcoming AUAB programmes an even greater success.

✊ United We Stand – United We Win!
✊ Long Live AUAB Unity!
✊ Long Live SEWA!
✊ Save BSNL – Protect Employees!

With sincere thanks,

Ashok Patel
GS SEWA

AUAB circular dated 27.07.2026

Short Update on started at 1930 hrs concluded at 2120 Hrs after threadbare discussions on pilot project of Uttarakhand Circle Restructuring, clearance of HR issues and consideration of Representations on Transfers & OTP Requests.
After welcome by the Director, CMD BSNL gave a brief idea about the Restructuring Proposal pilot project , conveyed Directions from Minister of Communication for implementation of this pilot project and added that the same will be implemented in all Circles with some changes suggested by the Unions and Associations. CMD BSNL categorically informed that there is no chance of withdrawal of proposal and only modifications are possible in it and appealed leaders to share their feedback.
CMD BSNL also assured of consideration of HR issues including issues related to Transfer Posting. He expressed displeasure that till nobody is owning BTS except 3-4 Circles and there is need to give more by BSNL workforce and appealed all to give their best for BSNL.

All the leaders present in meeting opposed any proposal for restructuring and demanded for total withdrawal of the proposal as it is based on wrong norms of GPs and Block and not on the Norms followed by BSNL for years together. We strongly objected proposal based on GPs and Blocks without any due weightage to requirement of BSNL and revenue generation out of any such proposal.
We categorically told that Management is going aead bluntly without giving any consideration to the needs of BSNL and feelings of the Workforce. We added that everytime we are assured for resolution of HR issues and nothing happening even the report of HR Finance issue Committee is not discussed before its finalisation and all the actions of management are unidirectional and the same is not acceptable.
We strongly demanded that before looking into genuine HR issues viz. Third Pay/Wage Revision, Upgraded Standard Pay Scales, we even cannot discuss any such proposal.
We demanded for immediate roll back of Restructuring Proposal and discuss in detail.
In response, CMD BSNL told that discussions should continue and instructed Director HR and PGM Pers to have detailed discussions with these leaders and look into their suggestions and left meeting stating that he is having another meeting. He directed to continue meeting, have more rounds of discussions, include Uttrakhand team also in the discussions and finalise the issues.

After elaborate discussions thereafter it has been decided that before or on coming Friday, fresh discussions will be held in presence of Team Uttarakhand and both sides will present their views.

It has been also decided to review all Representations received against transfers viz Medical , PwBD, caregiver, immunity, age bar and pending OTP Transfers etc will be considered sympathetically.

On HR issues recommended by the Committee will be decided in coming BSNL MC meeting which is scheduled on coming Thursday.

The update on detailed discussions will be shared shortly.
