Demand is there. Why no supply?

"Krushi Sanchar postpaid Mobile" : A Report from Nashik by our Circle President Com.S.V.Bhad:
Dear Comrade, As reported by our hardworking and devoted Comrade A.S.Patil SDE Yeola, After meeting of Dy.CM Bhujbal at Yeola in which Dy.CM appealed to his followers to use BSNL Mobile under new Scheme "Krushi Sanchar postpaid Mobile" in which farmers will get all calls with in Setkari group will be free and 400 calls free for calls to other operator and 100 free to BSNL Mobile other than group in just Rs.100 PM. and Marketing efforts made by our SDE Shri Patil and his active team. They have sold 861 SIM cards in just three days out of which 527 in one day( 25,26,&27 Aug.2010). 

Considering demands at Yeola our ADS SNEA(I) Nashik Com. Rade P.D. D.E. Manamad requested concern authority to issue more cards but he received only 50 cards. The most active staff at Yeola then made contact with me being my native at Yeola and asked for help otherwise all staff wanted to went on leave as without cards they cant face public. Then I made contact with our GMT Nashik who was on the way to Aurangabad and due to network problem I could not have clear conversation with him then I made SMS to him about situation at Yeloa. As we proud of our GM Nashik Mr. M.K. Jain he immediately ordered 


Mr.Kothawade DGM finance to issue 1000 cards for Yeola. And after that Yeola team worked for day and night and Sunday also. ( filling forms ,checking papers and issuing cards) , Till today they sold 1432 SIM Cards now they again facing shortage of cards. They have arranged Krushi Adhikari and his Team in Yeola Exchange to issue Cerificate. ( This was an excellent activity due to which farmers find them selves free to take certificate and take BSNL GSM connection hassle free). 

After this Second difficulty arrived that our CSR terminals kept in not working mode for two-three days for shifting to another server. See comrade our peoples want to work but dont find demand and when opportunity comes our Infrastructure not allow to grab the opportunity. I also explain to our beloved GMT Nashik that Yeola Team faces problem of staff that to fill more than 500 forms and issue cards in a day requires staff also, as usual he agreed to send staff on deputation Our DE Com. Rade P.D. already sent two persons at Yeola to tackle the situation.

We are proud off our comrade that many of them shown interest to work at Yeola to grab the opportunity. Our GMT NSK appealed to other Exchange incharge of remaining Tahasil that make similar efforts to increase the sell and grabs the opportunity. We appeal to all the Comrades throughout Maharashtra that in the same fashion of our Yeola Comrades we can increase our sale.

Our comments; Same situation in Tamil nadu.  Broadband is in demand. There is shortage of equipment and so we are not able to provide broadband and so we lose revenue.

3 g Data cards are in great demand. There is no supply. 
BSNL staff are ready to work but there is no supply of the required materials. 
In udan team, our staff come with leads. But there is no technical feasibility.  So our staff are denied incentive.  We are asked to go out to sell our products.  When we sell our products,we are not able to activate that.  What is the purpose of marketing? 
We all sit and discuss to improve our position.
