For NetworkManager to manage your device, you'll need to remove the
entries referring to eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces:
iface dsl-provider inet ppp
pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf
provider dsl-provider
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

Indicate an issue with BSNL directly. NetworkManager has nothing to do
with it. You should contact your ISP to investigate this matter,
especially if it also happens with Windows.
Marking as Invalid, since this does not appear to be a bug.
