Last Updated 19 August 2009, 19:17 IST

“BSNL has made adequate arrangements to ensure that telecom services rendered to our esteemed customers remain uninterrupted,” a company statement said Wednesday.
The company has also set up control room here and also at state and district levels to constantly monitor the situation.

According to officials of BSNL Employees Union, the company management has offered 30 per cent wage revision to workers, while higher officials have received 60-70 per cent hike. Around 150,000 workers are to participate in the two-day strike, pressing for higher wage revision and others demands.

Meanwhile, an indefinite strike by around 10,000 engineers at BSNL demanding absorption of officers who were deputed from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) entered its second day Wednesday.
