BRIEF HISTORY OF BHARTIYA NAVIK SENA UNION

BNSU is closely associated with Merchant Navy as the union is for the people working in the Shipping Industry. The union was formed in June, 2000 by Shri. Ravindra Baing due to the injustice inflicted to the people working in ships. In the span of last 22 years, they have helped about 20000 people with jobs and have guided and encouraged about 8000 people for training.
Taking today’s statistics in Merchant Navy, there are only 5% Maharastrians in it. People from Maharastra have been naturally gifted with such a long and natural coastline, we would like to promote our own sons of the soil and give them the right direction and chance for a new profession all together different which very few are aware of! BHARTIYA NAVIK SENA UNION likes to promote the Maharashtrian people in this type of industry and for that all should proudly think over and enter in this type of profession.
