State run telecom major Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) is taking various initiatives to improve its market share and quality of services. As part of these initiatives, employees of BSNL today took a pledge to serve all customers with a smile and resolve any service related issues as soon as possible.
The new programme – ‘Service with a Smile (SWAS)’ will be observed in all BSNL Offices from 1st January 2016 on wards throughout the country. This new theme was initially proposed by forum of BSNL unions / associations with special focus to customer care, to improve the quality of service and to substantially increase the number of landline, mobile, broadband and leased line customers.
BSNL CMD Anupam Shrivastava administered the oath to the employees at the company’s office in New Delhi whereas similar pledge ceremonies took place at all BSNL telecom circles across the country.
BSNL CMD Anupam Shrivastava said “All employees pledge today to serve the customer with new motto i.e. ‘Service with a Smile’ (SWAS). The theme SWAS was missing till now in BSNL. Often people talk about network, equipment, OFC cable and other infrastructure but the quality of service we offer is what that matters a lot. When Government is celebrating the ‘Good Governance Week’, there cannot better theme for BSNL than to provide service with a smile to our all customers.”
