24-02-2018 Meeting between Shri Manoj Sinha,
Hon’ble Minister of State for Communications and the
All Unions and Associations of BSNL - A meeting is held at the Sanchar Bhawan
today the 24.02.2018, between Shri Manoj Sinha, Hon’ble Minister of State for Communications and the All
Unions and Associations of BSNL (AUAB). Together with the Minister,
Secretary, DoT, Special Secretary, DoT, Joint Secretary (Admn.),
DoT, DDG (Esst), DoT, Shri
Anand Kumar, OSD to the Hon’ble
Minister, CMD BSNL and Director (HR) BSNL were present. From the All Unions
and Associations of BSNL, Com. P. Abhimanyu, GS,
Com. Chandeswar Singh, GS, NFTE, Com. K. Sebastin, GS, SNEA, Com. Prahlad
Rai, GS, AIBSNLEA, Com. K. Jayaprakash,
GS, FNTO, Com. N.D. Ram, GS, SEWA BSNL, Com. Ravi Shil
Verma, GS, AIGETOA, Com. Mallikarjuna,
President, BSNL MS and Com. S.D. Sharma, GS, BSNL ATM, participated in the
discussions. The representatives of the AUAB heartily thanked the Hon’ble Minister for taking out time to meet them.
Detailed discussions took place on the memorandum submitted to the Hon’ble Minister, the details of which are as follows:- (1) 3rd Pay
Revision. So far, the DoT has
been maintaining that BSNL employees are not eligible for 3rd Pay
Revision. In today’s meeting the Hon’ble Minister
agreed that the issue of 3rd Pay Revision of BSNL employees would be processed and would be taken for the approval of
the DPE and the Cabinet. This is a great achievement. We have broken the
stalemate that prevailed in the Pay Revision issue. At the same time we have to be vigilant, till the final approval is given
by the Cabinet. (2) Formation
of Subsidiary Tower Company. The AUAB
representatives expressed their apprehension that in the name of formation of
the Tower Company, the 66,000 mobile towers of BSNL are
being snatched away from BSNL. They also pointed out that the decision
of the Cabinet that, the Subsidiary Tower Company would remain under the
control of BSNL Management, has been violated, through the appointment of an
IAS officer as the CMD of Subsidiary Tower Company. They further pointed out
that even BSNL Management was not taken in to confidence in the appointment
of an IAS officer as the CMD of the Subsidiary Tower Company, which clearly
shows that the Subsidiary Tower Company would not be under the control of BSNL
Management. The reply given by the Hon’ble Minister
in this regard is not satisfactory. The AUAB has to find ways and means to
ensure the rolling back of the Subsidiary Tower Company. During the
discussions on the issue, GS AIBSNLEA raised the issue of additional
increment on post based promotions under the provisions of executive promotion policy provisions which has been
denounced by DoT vide letter dated 05.07.2017 and lakhs
of rupees recoveries are taking place of BSNL executives and BSNL pensioners.
He instantly submitted Hon’ble PB CAT judgment copy
to Hon’ble MOSC (I/C) wherein the DoT order dated
05.07.2017 has been quashed. Hon’ble
MOSC (I/C) immediately directed DoT administration to look into the
matter. Now, we can expect that DoT may not go for appeal against the
PBCAT order in this regard after this meeting. (3) Pension
Revision. The representatives
of AUAB strongly argued that pension revision should be
done to the BSNL pensioners. It was pointed out
that the BSNL pensioners and the Central Government pensioners are covered by
the same rules. They argued that when pension revision is
settled for the Central Government pensioners, the same should not be
denied to the BSNL pensioners. The Hon’ble Minister
assured that needful action would be taken to settle
this issue. (4) Calculation
of Pension Contribution. It was strongly
argued that pension contribution in respect of BSNL employees cannot be calculated on the basis of maximum of the pay
scale, when the same is calculated on the basis of actual basic pay, in the
case of Central Government employees. It was pointed out that as per the DoP&T order issued in 2006,
pension contribution of the Central Government employees is being deducted on
the basis of actual pay only. The Hon’ble Minister
directed the Secretary, DoT, that this issue should be
settled as per Government orders. (5) Allotment
of 4G spectrum to BSNL. The AUAB
representatives pointed out that it will be extremely difficult for BSNL to
compete with the private operators, without providing 4G service. They
strongly argued that the proposal of the BSNL Management, for the allotment
of 4G spectrum by the Government, should be accepted.
The Hon’ble Minister replied in the positive and
assured that needful action would be taken. (6) Reduction
of retirement age from 60 to 58. The AUAB
representatives strongly argued that the retirement age of the BSNL employees
should not be reduced from 60 to 58, as a measure
for the revival of BSNL. The Hon’ble Minister told
that the government is not having any proposal to reduce the retirement age
from 60 to 58. (7) Left
out issues of the 2nd PRC. The AUAB
representatives pointed out that this issue is lingering on very long time
and needs to be settled. The Hon’ble
Minister stated that this issue would be looked into by the
Secretary, DoT. At the end of the
meeting, the Hon’ble Minister stated that the
representatives of AUAB could meet him again, as well as the Secretary, DoT,
in continuation of today’s meeting. The representatives of AUAB heartily
thanked the Minister for his positive response to most of the issues. After the meeting
with the Hon’ble Minister, a meeting of the AUAB was held in the FNTO’s office. All the General Secretaries
expressed their satisfaction with regards to the
progress in the issues. They also expressed the view that all these have
happened only because of the united struggles and massive mobilization by the
entire Non-Executives and Executives, for which they deserve
appreciation. |

evening , CS , CVP, ACS , DFS TVM addressed DR JTO Phase-I trainees and other
JTO trainees who are undergoing training at RTTC Trivandrum by elaborating all
the prevailing conditions of BSNL . AIBSNLEA exhorted the need of unity among
all employees of BSNL for the survival of both BSNL and BSNL Employees . DR of BSNL are short of getting 5 more percent
of superannuation benefits to 30%
while almost all other PSUs have already extended this benefits to
their DRs . AIBSNLEA has been fighting for 30% benefits despite the fact
that another association had pointed
out on an occasion that this benefit
cannot be extended to the DRs due to the financial crisis of BSNL . AIBSNLEA is
totally against the lateral entry of DGM/MT , which will kill the career
prospects of DR executives. Moreover , only AIBSNLEA along with AIGETOA did fight
against the recruitment . AIBSNLEA is
for E2-E3 Scale implementation in true spirit .etc .... While
addressing the two batches erstwhile O-JTO batches of Phase-II undergoing
JTOs, CS and ACS detailed the progress
status of FR 22 1 (a) 1 pay protection case .
The very lawful pay fixation and its protection is upheld by CAT , HC
and SC without any room of apprehension after prolonged years of legal
fighting . Despite the fact, the
apparent move of BSNL Corporate Office to review the case at SC will only
result in loss to BSNL exchequer and delay in implementing the legitimate
right. AIBSNLEA is trying at all the levels to implement the SC order at the
earliest. The

21-02-2018 DoT
vide letter number 24-1/2018/SR communicated CMD, BSNL with respect to the
agitation notice by All Unions and Associations of BSNL - Massive March to
Sanchar Bhawan on 23.02.2018. Through this letter
DoT has apprised the status of demands wherein all
the demands have been denied which is the most frustrating situation. DoT instead of settling the issues in the interest of BSNL's
viability and its employees denying the settlement of the legitimate demands. |
|
20-02-2018 Meeting with Secretary (Telecom), DoT: GS/AIBSNLEA
along with GS / BSNLEU and GS / SNEA met Secretary (Telecom), DoT and
requested for considering the BSNL’s proposal for implementation of 3rd PRC
recommendation with 15% fitment benefits in BSNL. We expressed our concern
that the BSNL Board recommendations in this regard are pending in DoT for the
last three months but no steps have been taken so
far for its implementation. We further requested that DoT should relax the
“Affordability Clause” of 3rd PRC or should take relaxation
from Union Cabinet in the interest of BSNL and its employees. We pleaded that BSNL employees are working with their full
commitment for the growth of BSNL and also timely completing the various
Govt. projects like BHARAT NET, NFS & LWE etc. Pay
revision in BSNL is must to keep motivated the BSNL employees and in the interest
of the viability of BSNL. Delay in consideration of pay revision has caused
serious frustrations, resentment and demotivation
amongst the BSNL employees. We explained that most of the BSNL employees were
DoT employees only before their absorption in BSNL and as per Govt. of India
Policy, after formation of the BSNL they exercised their option for taking
absorption in BSNL under the assurances of better pay, promotion and pension
but now the same is being deprived off on one pretext or another. Regarding
pension revision of BSNL pensioners, we apprised her that DoT Pension Cell is
linking the pension revision with the pay revision of BSNL serving employees which is not justified since the BSNL pensioners
are not related with the affordability of BSNL. During their service, their
pension contribution has already been paid to DoT.
The DDG (Estt) every time is explaining that in
case the pension revision is done for BSNL pensioners without the pay
revision of BSNL serving employees there will be anomalies in the pension. He
is explaining that in case the pension is revised
without considering the pay revision of BSNL serving employees, in that case
BSNL pensioners retired prior to 01.01.2017 will draw more pension than the
BSNL pensioners who retired or retiring after 01.01.2017. In this regard, we
requested Secretary (Telecom) for her kind intervention for resolving the
issue. Secretary
(Telecom), after giving patient hearing assured an early action in this
regard and mentioned that Hon’ble MOSC (I/C) is
also telling in all the meetings that we will consider the case. We extended
thanks for granting the meeting. |

19-02-2018 Meeting
with CMD BSNL : GS, President and FS
met CMD BSNL and discussed regarding a)
Implementation of 3rd PRC in BSNL: We requested CMD to
use his good office in DoT for the approval of BSNL Board decision on
3rd PRC implementation and we also requested
CMD BSNL to arrange a meeting with Hon'ble MOSC
(I/C) and Secretary, DOT with all Unions and Associations of BSNL to discuss
their demands. CMD BSNL assured to arrange a meeting within a couple of days. b)
Filling up of the vacant of Group-A & Group-B posts: We requested to hold
CPCs to fill-up the vacant Group-A and Group-B posts on Adhoc
basis subject to outcome of the pending Court Cases. CMD mentioned that after
our earlier meeting on this issue he has issued necessary instructions to GM
(Pers) and advised us to discuss the matter with GM
(Pers) for an early action. c)
Implementation of CPSU cadre Hierarchy: CMD mentioned that
the matter was discussed in the last BSNL Board
meeting held on 08.02.2018 wherein Govt. nominee Director has asked to reply
some of his queries. Thus after the approval from BSNL
Board the matter will be sent to DOT for clearance. We further
requested that the CPCs should be conducted simultaneously till
the time CPSU Cadre Hierarchy is implemented. 19-02-2018 GS

15-02-2018 Hon'ble PB CAT New Delhi
issues orders in OA No. 2649 quashing DOT Order dated 5/7/2017: Congratulations!
AIBSNLEA's consistent efforts yielded results in getting delivered a
favourable judgment by the Hon'ble PBCAT New Delhi
for quashing the DoT letter dated 05.07.2017 which rescinded grant of an
extra increment on post based promotion under EPP. Hon'ble PB CAT New Delhi has issued orders in OA No.
2649 quashing DOT Order dated 5/7/2017. While writing the judgment Hon'ble PBCAT has mentioned that "The applicants have
basically prayed for retention of para I.II (v) of
the EPP (Annexure A-2, which has been duly approved by the Government
according to its policy. There has been no policy change as such in the
Government in regard to the service conditions of
the BSNL employees. The controversy has arisen only on account of P&T
audit unnecessarily trying to compare financial upgradation
under the EPP with that under the MACP, not realizing that these two schemes
are applicable to two separate set of employees. 11. In the conspectus
of the discussions in the foregoing paras as well
as considering the background of introduction of EPP, I am of the view that
the impugned Annexure A-1 order dated 05.07.2017 is not at all legally as
well as ethically justifiable. Its retention would create trust deficit
between the BSNL employees and the Central Government, which is also
unwarranted. Hence, I quash and set aside the impugned Annexure A-1 order
dated 05.07.2017. Accordingly, the OA stands allowed. <<<Click here for the judgment copy

glaring example about the of working of AIBSNLEA
which fights sincerely and legally for the interests of all employees without
any discrimination. |

30-01-2018 Meeting
with Dir (HR) BSNL Board: GS, President AGS (HQ) and AGS
(Finance) met Dir(HR) BSNL Board and discussed regarding a) Implementation of 3rd PRC
with 15% fitment benefit in BSNL: We requested Dir (HR) to
use her good office in getting cleared BSNLs proposal for 3rd PRC
implementation from DOT. Dir (HR) mentioned that BSNL Board approval on 3rd PRC
implementation was sent to DOT one month before but till
date it is pending and no body from DOT is discussing the matter with BSNL
management. Thus the matter has to be discussed with
Secretary Telecom and Hon'ble MOSC (I/C) for their
kind intervention and its implementation. We expressed our concern that BSNL only is executing the dream project of Hon'ble Prime Minister regarding NOFN work (Bharat Net
Project), NFS Work and LWE project etc. and now Govt. is neglecting BSNL
workers for their wage revision by implementing 3rd PRC is
not justified. b) Withdrawal of Tower
Subsidiary:
Dir (HR) mentioned that the decision on creation of Tower Subsidiary and
appointment of CMD Tower Subsidiary has been taken
by Govt. and now any review may be done by Govt. only. The matter has to be taken up with Hon'ble MOSC
(I/C). c) Implementation of
CPSU cadre hierarchy: We requested for implementation of CPSU cadre hierarchy by

27-01-2018 General Body of AIBSNLEA Thrissur branch has been conducted at Recreation club
hall , Thrissur on 25-01-2018 under the presidentialship of Com. Krishnan DP TCR . The members
are welcomed by DS Com.Ashiq . CS and CVP attended the grand meeting
. While welcoming
the gathering, DS narrated the very unhealthy/unethical political practice
being adopted by one association in adding membership, which is no way
suitable for an executive association . DP
emphasised the need of unity among employees for a better BSNL. CS elaborated all
the prevailing situations of BSNL in service /HR and other matters. He also
mentioned the legal action being planned against SNEA, Kerala averse to
publishing a derogatory write-up on their site which is
tarnishing the image and questioning the integrity of a very dynamic
Lady comrade of AIBSNLEA who already proved her excel in both
office/associational arena. It is a matter of abusing a Lady in public and
shows their “ below-the-belt “ means of trade
unionism. We suggest SNEA to
eschew this inherent obnoxious line up of their trade unionism and think of
forming an en-masse exuberant platform of both
recognised executive associations at CHQ /Circle levels , to curb the divide
and rule policy of administration, for
the total benefit of executives at least henceforth while future of BSNL
clearly on Knife Edge. A befitting send
off was given to Com.Suresh DGM(Rtd) and Com.Balachandran PS(Rtd) .The hall was jam-packed with members including the
newly joined DR /LICE JTOs . Com.Shyam Sunder , DFS extended vote of thanks. |
