Mr. Shrivastava, former CMD of BSNL, led India’s telecom giant through disruption, driving profitability, major telecom projects, and global initiatives. A seasoned telecom expert with 38+ years of experience, he has guided BharatNet, defence communications, rural connectivity projects, and represented India at leading international forums.
During one of the most disruptive phases in Indian telecom—marked by the rise of Jio and the exit of multiple operators, he steered BSNL back to operational profit for three consecutive years (2015–2017), a feat recognised by the Hon’ble Prime Minister and noted in Parliament. Renowned for financial acumen and crisis management, he has overseen projects worth over ₹100,000 crore, earning national and global accolades for leadership and vision.
