37^th Death Anniversary of Com. K.G. Bose

11^th December, 2011 is the 37^th Death Anniversary of Com. K.G. Bose, the indomitable fighter who gave the P&T and Central Govt. Employees T.U. movement the correct direction and guidance.

Appointed as a clerk in the DET office Calcutta in 1942, he became fully engaged in the P&T Trade Union movement in no time and was one of the leaders in the historic 1946 strike.

In 1949, he was dismissed from service for his leadership role in the proposed P&T strike and never taken back. But even after dismissal, he continued his trade union activities in the P&T and Central Govt. Employees movement.

 In 1970, Com. K.G. Bose was elected as the President of the mighty NFPTE – defeating the reformist leadership. In the meantime he was elected as an MLA in West Bengal.

 His continued work and hectic tours adversely affected his health. For better treatment he was admitted in a hospital in London. But his illness increased and he passed away on 11^th December, 1974.

 BSNL Employees Union pay their Homage to the memory of the great Revolutionary Com. K.G. Bose.
