BSNL Cancels Director Vivek Banzal's Prayagraj Visit After Hospitality Protocol Leak

A planned visit by BSNL Director Vivek Banzal to Prayagraj was cancelled after an internal document detailing extensive hospitality arrangements went viral on social media. The protocol included a minute-by-minute schedule with over 50 staff assigned to tasks such as transportation, temple visits, ceremonial bathing kits, and refreshments. The disclosure sparked criticism over the use of public sector resources amid BSNL's financial losses. BSNL stated the document was leaked unintentionally, took corrective action, and reaffirmed adherence to official conduct guidelines.
