NFTE-BSNL wishes all women particularly working in BSNL a very happy International Women's Day  on 08-03-2016. Women are the eyes of our society and needs to be 
respected and  honoured by all of us . In the modern world women have proved that 
they are very competent and responsible in any duty . Even trucks , planes are now 
operated by women which were previously reserved for men. We are happy to note the operation of Air India plane to San Francisco ( USA)with all women crew on board in that longest distance sector recently. Indeed it is a fittest way to mark the International 
women's Day.Air India ,a PSU need to be congratulated by all of us for this novel effort.

Even after many decades the bill passed by Rajya Sabha for reserving the 33% of seats 
for women in both Parliament and state assemblies did not became an act as it was not approved by Loksabha due to the male chauvinist politicians of our country.

NFTE-BSNL promised 12 days special casual leave in a year to our women employees on 
the eve of sixth verification in 2013.After NFTE became a recognised Union and got representation in the National Council we submitted the demand of grant of 12 days 
special casual leave to the staff side secretary and General Secretary of BSNLEU . 
But comrade Abhimanyu in a very narrow minded approach refused to forward that 
demand of NFTE for inclusion in the national council agenda. His objection was it was 
a promise made by NFTE and hence he has no responsible for that demand.We can't see such an arrogance from any other union leader. Still on 8 th March those leaders of 
BSNLEU will deliver long speeches on women's rights without any shame or guilty 
conscious .The rational behind our demand for 12 days special casual leave for only 
women was they play crucial role in our society as mother ,Wife, Sister etc and they 
are looking after the maintenance of entire family whether employed or unemployed.

Any how at least in the next year we must ensure that 12 days Special CL to our 
Women employees is granted by the management .
