President  informed that since the inception of BSNL, all the executives and non-executives are dedicatedly working for the growth of BSNL.  But, it is painful to say that the ITS officers, who are leading us is not able to take a decision on their absorption issue.  He requested the ITS officers to get absorb in BSNL and join the work force of BSNL so that BSNL can achieve its original position.  He informed that DoT has requested the executives of face any contingency situation to manage the BSNL in the case of ITS officer not opted for BSNL.  President has informed that on behalf of the Association our CHQ has already informed the DoT that BSNL executives are ready to face any challenge.
