CGMT Meeting  with recognised unions/association ( AIBSNLEA , SNEA , SEWA, BSNLEU and NFTE ) on developmental issues and various ways and means for further revenue generation has been carried out today at 2.30 PM at the conference hall of circle office.

 

GM(A/HR) Shri.Robbin Poddar welcomed all the senior officers and association/union leaders . CGMT , Dr.PT Mathew , addressed the meeting with facts and figures of the performance of Kerala Circle in all verticals for the last three quarters through power point presentation . It was very heartburn to see that the dip in revenue of Kerala Circle for the 3 quarters is @ 17% ( -16.9%) . The fault clearance rate of Kerala Circle is also recorded very low compared to the other southern circles. After detailing the performance of circle ,  CGMT expressed the uneasiness in achieving  the revenue target of Kerala Circle when only one more quarter left behind . CGMT directed PGM(F) Shri.KK Vel to appraise the financial condition of Kerala Circle to the meeting.

 

PGM(F) well narrated the financial crunch Kerala circle is struggling through . He portrayed the difficulty he encounters to find funds to provide at least the salary of employees. The illustration of the real financial picture of our circle turn the meeting tensed and anxious. Thereafter CGMT invited association/unions to speak on the means for further revenue generation. Firstly AIBSNLEA shared our views . Then SNEA , NFTE , SEWA and BSNLEU also shared their views . CGMT listened to all the views and interacted in a very motivating way.

 

All the associations/Unions extended unsolicited support to CGMT Kerala Dr.PT Mathew for all his endeavour for developmental activities and various ways and means for further revenue generation of Kerala Circle.

 

In addition to CGMT , PGM(F)  and GM(A) ,   Sr.GM(S&M)/NWO-CFA   Shri. I Thirunavakkarasu  , GM(EB)S&M-CM DR.Jyothi Sankar S  ,  GM(NWP-CFA),BP&IT     Shri.

DOT appointed Shri Amit Yadav (IAS) ,Joint Secretary (Admin), DOT as CMD of tower subsidiary company of BSNL.

DOT vide its letter no.79-51/2017 -SU dated 21.12.2017, has appointed Shri Amit Yadav (IAS) ,Joint Secretary (Admin), DOT as CMD of tower subsidiary company of BSNL. It  seems that the Government is moving fast to operate tower subsidiary. It is surprising that as per Union Cabinet decision the tower subsidiary will be fully owned by BSNL , but after seeing the DOT order it is difficult to understand that whether tower subsidiary will be controlled directly by DOT or through BSNL. We strongly oppose such active move of Government to fragment BSNL assets.

<<<Orders>>>

Details of the same can be seen from the trailing letter ( One of the series of Letters) written by
 CS AIBSNLEA Kerala to GS/CGMT/PGMT on 17-07-2017

There are 36 very unlucky JAOs of 1999 batch working in Kerala Circle. In accordance with the provisions detailed vide Para 1(1)(d)(7) of BSNL orders dated 18.01.2007, they have been promoted to the E2 scale (Rs 11875-300-17275) equivalent to AAO with effect from 01.04.2004. When several circles granted the above promotion and Kerala Circle was not issuing orders for the promotion, they have  approached the Hon’ble CAT Ernakulam and the CAT was pleased to order promotions to Kerala JAO 1999 also as given in the other circles.  Accordingly we were promoted to E 2 scale with effect from 01/04/2004 as per the above Para 1(1)(d)(7) of EPP (Ref (4)).

 

Now kindly refer CO BSNL letter under reference (1) on the subject cited above, wherein it has been decided by the competent authority that the promotion to the cadre of AAO/Sr. AO allowed by DOT/BSNL during the period 1.10.2000 to 30.9.2004 may be treated as post based promotion in EPP, only for the purpose of counting as a residency period for First Time Bound Up-gradation as per clause [3][3.1] under the heading 'First Up-gradation in EPP.

It is submitted that, promotion given to them to the grade of AAO from 1.4.2004 which was earlier treated as time bound promotion, may be treated as a post based promotion with reference to the CO BSNL letter No. 400-172/2015 Pers I dated 02.9.2015 (Ref 1) and the clarification issued vide Ref(2)and (3). Many other circles like Corporate Office, Maharashtra Circle, Karnataka, Andra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Chennai etc (copies of orders attached) have issued promotion orders to JAO 1999 batch based on the letter dated 02/09/2015 and clarification dated 14/01/2016. In Kerala Circle we are denying the preponement of time bound upgradation as was given in the other circles on some flimsy grounds. Actually, our circle union is pursuing the case vigorously for a pretty long time but the circle finance administration seems to be adamant in not giving the legitimate promotion to the comrades.  When it is clearly said that the promotions given under Para 1(1)(d)(7) of BSNL orders dated 18.01.2007 to the accounts personnel, why Kerala JAOs of 1999 promoted under the same para during the same period is denying the preponement? Even after receiving the order and two more clarifications on it, kerala Circle administration again seeking clarification from Corporate office vide GM HR No.HR-II/6-6/TB/TB-VIII/2015-16/26 dated 25/05/2017 which is something to lag the case some more time .

 It is learnt that no reply to this letter has been received so far. Many of the affected comrades  in Kerala have retired without getting the expected benefit. Hence we request your good office to kindly take up the matter to appropriate level in corporate office to release further clarity if at all needed as demanded by Kerala Circle to benefit the affected comrades as already benefitted by the group of comrades in other circles, at the earliest.

CS , CP , CVP and DS TVM met PGM-F Kerala Circle Shri.KK Vel  on 7-12-2017 and discussed all the pending HR issues of accounts fraternity

 

The Long Pending increment Preponement of 1999 JAO batch officers:

We expressed discontent in non-settling of the issue so far. PGM informed that the matter is recommended and forwarded to CGMT on the prolonged request of AIBSNLEA . We extended sincere thanks in initiating  the very long pending issue , which has been settled by all other circles very long ago, for favourable settlement   . Later CS & CP requested CGMT Kerala also to settle the long pending issue favourably as done in other circles   . CGMT Kerala was very positive and assured to settle down the matter. We expect favourable orders shortly.

 

Training of 6 JAOs

As we have informed on 23-11-2017 , the training schedule is released . We extended profound thanks on scheduling Phase-I training of these candidates as assured to this association

 

Result declaration of 5 JAO candidates

We expressed  dissatisfaction on non-declaration of results for  5 vacancies arose against the JAO VY 2015-16 . PGM informed that as per corporate office latest letter only one vacancy can be considered as the clear vacancy due to the declining of one JAO candidate and   the other 4 vacancies were generated  due to the option of  Phase-I completed JAOs to JTOs .  As per latest SEA section order No.4-22/2013-SEA dated 01-12-2017 the vacancies can be counted against the candidates who have qualified the exam successfully but declined to join the post of JAOs. But we argued that the same letter provisioned an opportunity for the remaining 4 vacancies also by the wording  and there are still some vacancies left out “ . Later we met DGM(HR) and AGM(HR/Recr) Shri. Mahesh to reconsider the matter . They informed that as per latest SEA section letter,  circle office will declare result of one vacancy and our request will also be considered after the result declaration for one vacancy.

 

Harassment to JAOs effectively  maintaining CSCs by SDE(T) as controlling officers

We requested to initiate righteous actions to stop harassment by SDE to JAO subordinate. We quoted an example of the same with Kottakkal CSC in Malappuram BA .  We further requested to protect the morale and efficiency of the young JAOs from the intimidation of SDE controlling officer without delay for the sake of healthy office performance  . Moreover we  requested either accord the administrative control of the JAO to an AO or shift the JAO from CSC to a JTO. PGM listened all our wordings and assured to take up the matter at concerned levels for a positive outcome.

 

Filling of AO/CAO vacancies

We expressed our displeasure on non filling of the vacancies all along Kerala . The LA arrangements are being given to the eligible candidates without any financial engagements to BSNL . Thus, it is a way of motivating the executives. Negating LA provisioning against existing vacancies cannot be appreciated .  PGM shared our concern and suggested the same is his opinion  . He assured to look into the matter .

 

Transfer request of JAO/AOs to parent BA

We requested to consider the request transfers to parent BA especially for those who are retiring within two years . He appreciated our concern and replied that he can’t violate the presidency followed in Kerala circle of completing two years for transfer to parent BA . He further mentioned in Palakkad BA , so many young  JAOs leaving BSNL to other departments created acute shortage  of accounts wing.
