BSNLEU demands the sanctioning of one day's salary to all BSNL employees..

Since telecommunication is an essential service, the employees of BSNL are engaged in providing service to the people, despite a nationwide lock-down has been imposed. To ensure that they do not contract the infection of Corona Virus, BSNL employees need to use masks, gloves, sanitizer, liquid soap, etc. on a daily basis. They are spending money from their pockets for this. BSNLEU has demanded that, the BSNL Management should immediately sanction one day's salary (Basic Pay +DA) to all the BSNL employees, to enable them to meet the expenditure for purchasing the above items. BSNLEU has informed the Management that the other Public Sector Enterprises, viz., LIC of India, State Bank of India and the Union Bank of India have already sanctioned such a lumpsum grant.
