 RESOLUTION
Against The Policies of Privatisation and Corporatisation
This online meeting of National Executives of NFCGA-EWO held on 23rd August 2020
through audio-visual medium deliberated at length on the effects of privatisation policies
of the Government of India. It has been observed by the meeting that the Government of
India is moving unabated towards Corporatisation and Privatisation of Government
establishments and Public Sectors. Government has moved in a big way to shut down the
BSNL and MTNL, It has enforced largescale voluntary retirements and miseries for the
workers. The Defence production units of the country are in the process of privatisation
and the workers are [persistently struggling to sustain the establishment. One of the
biggest establishments of the country the Indian Railways is being privatised in stages
resulting threat of job loss by lakhs of workers. The Department of Supply has been closed
by privatising the procedure for procurement the items require in functioning of
Government Departments through GEM. Large numbers of Railway Stations and the
Airports have been handed over to the private hands. In February, 2019, the first round of
privatisation of six Airports - Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Mangalore,
Thiruvananthapuram and Guwahati was cleared for operation, management and
development through PPP Model. In September, 2019, Civil Aviation Ministry had
recommended for privatisation of 6 more airports such as Amritsar, Varanasi,
Bhubaneshwar, Indore, Raipur and Trichy. On August 18, 2020, The Civil Aviation Minister
has said that his ministry would place a proposal for further privatisation of airports
before the union cabinet. On August 19, the union cabinet approved the proposal for
leasing out three Airports Viz., Jaipur, Guwahati and Thiruvananthapuram through public
private partnership (PPP). The Department of Post is preparing systematically to
privatise the Postal and other services rendered by the Postal Departments by handing
those over to the private hands which shall finally render thousands of employees as
surplus. Bharat Petroleum Corporations Ltd (BPCL) is on the verge of privatisation even
though making profit and the workers are on the path of struggle.
The Meeting expressed its grave concern that the policies of privatisation and process of
selling out of government assets to the private hands have become disastrous for the
working class of the country and the Central Government Employees of the country being
no exception to it, no responsible Central Government Employees Organisation can
continue remain a silent spectator to such a situation.
The meeting therefore, unanimously resolved that the National Federation of Central
Government and Allied Employees and Workers Organisations shall continue to oppose
the policies of Privatisation and Corporatisation of Government Departments with its full
might and shall join the common struggle of the working class against the policies of
Privatisation and Corporatisation Etc.
