  The Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said that - "The government is neither closing nor divesting stake in MTNL and BSNL," in a press briefing on Wednesday.

The Union Cabinet approved the merger on Wednesday and has also cleared relief package. The overall relief package includes sovereign bonds of Rs. 15,000 crore, monetization of Rs. 38,000 crore assets, Rs. 29,937 crore for VRS, and Rs. 3674 crore for GST (goods and services taxes).
