10.11.2009 NEW
Meeting with Director(HRD): GS along with AGSs, Com Khan and Com Sebstian,
met Director(HRD) and discussed the following issues.
DPC from JTO to SDE under 67 % quota : The
DPC should be immediately notified for the vacancy years 2008-09 and 2009-10 and necessary action be initiated in this regard,
we urged upon director(HRD) who assured us that he would direct concerned officers to initiate appropriate action in this
direction .
LDCE from JTO to SDE: The
LDCE from JTO to SDE for about 4400 TES Gr B vacancies should be immediately notified against the vacancy years 2006-07 and
2007-08. The resultant vacancies for the year 2008-09 may also be taken into account before notifying the exam, we requested
Director(HRD). Favourable consideration of our request and early notification of the examination was assured.
Regularization of adhoc STS officers: The
process of regularization of about 2300 existing adhoc STS officers which is stalled due to legal reasons needs to be expedited
as early as possible. We informed Director(HRD) that we are not averse to any kind of arrangement that helps in regularization
of adhoc STS officers at the earliest. Director(HRD) informed that BSNL has send the legal opinion that it has received from
its legal counsel representing BSNL in Supreme Court to DOT for taking a final view on the matter.
Promotion from STS regular to JAG: Immediate steps may be taken to initiate the process for promotion of recently regularized 280 STS officers to JAG.
Director(HRD) informed that this process is expected to be completed shortly and necessary action to promote these regular
STS officers to JAG has already started.
DPC from SDE to Adhoc STS: We
requested Director(HRD) to direct CGM/J&K to take appropriate action to ensure early listing of the case by BSNL in J&K
High Court so that the interim stay granted by High Court is vacated as soon as possible by submission of facts before Hon’ble
High Court. Director(HRD) spoke to CGM/J&K to initiate immediate action for early listing of the case to enable BSNL Hqs
to issue promotion orders from TES Gr B to adhoc STS as early as possible.
Referendum of Associations: Dir (HRD) informed that this issue is under active consideration of BSNL management since the committee constituted
to finalize the modalities for holding the referendum has submitted its report.
ACP of Civil & Electrical: We
informed Director(HRD) that since the committee constituted for the purpose of deciding the issue for Civil/Electrical etc
has already finalized and submitted its report which we understand is positive and addresses the issue appropriately, there
is no point in linking the issue to other cadres and thus unnecessarily delaying it. We impressed upon the Director(HRD) to
get the necessary orders to remove the anomaly in respect of Civil/Electrical etc issued at the earliest, and we were assured
by director(HRD) that he would discuss the issue further with the concerned officers.
Continuation in CDA scales till the date of promotion/retirement: The pension of all the persons who have availed this option is not being settled
by Jt.CCAs. GM (Est.) has already asked for the requisite information from the circles but no major circle has provided the
same. We requested Dir (HRD) to kindly issue DO letters to CGMs to send the information at the earliest. Dir (HRD) asked us
to remind the same in the next week as GM (Est.) will be available next week only.

Comrades, get immediately ready for an All India Programme of most militant
form of sustained organizational action to defeat the sinister designs of BSNL management and bureaucracy of DoT to inflict
irreparable and irreversible damage on BSNL by calling for volunteers from Indian P & T Accounts and Finance officers
(Class I services) to be sent on deemed deputation to BSNL/MTNL.
We are at a
loss to understand how this letter calling for volunteers from DoT on deemed deputation to BSNL/MTNL has been issued by DoT
when the Union Cabinet has repeatedly taken a conscious and clear decision not to allow anyone from DoT to BSNL/MTNL on deemed
deputation.
This conspiracy
between vested interests in the bureaucracy of DoT and BSNL management has not only to be exposed but defeated lock,
stock and barrel.
What we
fail to understand is how a very senior officer
of BSNL management from Finance wing had requisitioned for sending some officers from Indian P & T Accounts and Finance
to BSNL on deemed deputation. But
the most pertinent question that arises is how this decision of Ex- Dir (F), BSNL was concurred to by CMD, BSNL and
how the proposal was finally approved by Member (F) , DOT and Secretary, DoT in complete contravention of the decision of
the Union Cabinet turning down the proposal of deemed deputation of anyone from DoT to BSNL/MTNL.
Get ready for
a do or die agitation to defeat the conspiracy of vested interests to inflict irreparable damage on BSNL by allowing
deemed deputation of class I officers from DOT to BSNL. |

Meeting with Director(HRD):
The Association was called for a discussion on the issue of revisiting
30% fixation granted on the new IDA scales in accordance to the orders of DPE. GS and AGS, Com. A. Khan, expressed opinion
on the said issue in very clear and unambiguous terms. Under no circumstances and in no situation can this Association even
remotely reconcile to the suggestion of BSNL Management for reconsideration of the fixation criterion already decided and
implemented. Any step in the direction of reducing the existing fixation on IDA scales will result in instantaneous industrial
unrest of the worst kind, we categorically apprised Director(HRD), and requested him to convey the opinion of our Association
to BSNL Board on the same lines. Legitimate fixation of pay in conformity with the orders of the govt. cannot be fiddled with
by BSNL/Board and any attempt in the direction of diluting the fixation already decided will be met with stiffest resistance
from our Association. Such arbitrary and authoritarian moves of the Management shall be squarely defeated by us, we are completely
confident, for the simple reason that such decisions are not only indiscreet but a clear infringement on our legitimate rights
and violative of the decisions of the govt. We further requested Director(HRD) not to act in a manner that will adversely
and irreversibly affect the ongoing developmental activities in the organization.

MANAGEMENT TRAINEE RECRUITMENT:
<<Letter>>
United Forum of BSNL Executives' Association writes
to CMD, BSNL for the modification of provisions of MT RR notified on 01.09.2009 which are discriminatory and against natural
justice. UF clearly told the Management that the notification not only discriminates and denies the really meritorious, but
is also violative of the DOP & Trg guidelines and various Supreme Court Judgments as it will lead to the creation of "a class with in a class". UF demanded the internal
fast track promotion is to be carried out without discriminations of qualifications and age, otherwise we
will be unwillingly constrained to resort to all actions including agitational and legal actions to ensure justice prevails.

Meeting with DIR(HRD), BSNL:
GS, AGS Com. K. Sebastin and Jt Sec (North) Com. Inderjith Singh met DIR(HRD) and discussed the MT R/R and the proposed MT
recruitment. GM(Pers) also present. We clearly told the Management that the age and educational qualification mentioned in
the MT R/R for internal candidates is in clear violation of orders of DoP&Trg, regulating the provisions of the internal competitive examination.
3000 to 4000 Engineering Graduates from premier institutions such as Regional Engineering Colleges (NITs) and Govt. Engg colleges
(some of them having M Tech) recruited by DoT in the year 1994 and prior to that and having minimum 12 years of experience
in Telecom operations are not allowed to compete in the internal competitive examination. In addition to this, thousands of
Post Graduates and Graduates with minimum first class (even some of them are University rank holders) and having vast experience
in Telecom operations also deprived the opportunity. Some of them having MBA/MCA degree also. Some JTOs quit their job and
joined BSNL in 2001 year rect. also not eligible because of the age limit. GM(Pers) informed that already relaxation of 6
years is given to the internal candidates as 5 years relaxation given by UPSC. We clearly told that this relaxation of 6 years
is for External quota and not for Internal quota. For Intl quota, there should not be any age or qualification bar. If the
Management not considering this, we fear that the entire rect process may face legal hurdle and the recruitment will
be delayed for years together. Further we told that we will submit a comprehensive note on Monday and management has to reconsider
the eligibility conditions of Intl candidates based on that. We will further discuss the matter with CMD/DIR(HRD), BSNL next
week. |

TRAINEES:
Association is all along pleading with the Management that there should not be any AGE / QUALIFICATION BAR for
the rect. of Management Trainees through internal competitive examination. Association elaborately submitted its views to
the committee constituted under the chairmanship of PGM (IR) to examine the issue of relaxation in age and qualification for
MT rect through internal competitive examination. Association strongly pleaded for allowing BSc, 1st class (Educational
qualification for Outside rect of JTOs), with no age bar, to appear for the internal competitive examination.
The management has ignored the views of the Association in contravention of the orders of DoP&Trg, regulating the provisions
of the internal competitive examination. Association is determined to end this discrimination and going to take up the issue
with the Management once again. Managements failure to respond to our plea of conduction of internal competitive examination
in accordance to DoP&Trg rules allowing Executives to appear in the internal competitive examination with no age bar and
Educational qualifications of BSc (First Class), shall force the Association to seek appropriate legal recourse.

BSNL profit for 2008-09 falls to Rs 575 Crores
from Rs 7806 Crores in 2006-07: Unbelievable Downfall - Time to
alert ourselves for the consquences .
Minister of
State for telecom & IT Sachin Pilot has informed Rajya Sabha that:
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited's
(BSNL) revenue arrears for 2007-08 have touched Rs 7,482.81 crore, out of which Rs 4,226 crore may or may not materialize, Rajya
Sabha was informed in last week. The biggest defaulters are private customers
under basic services who owed Rs
4,173.63 crore as on March 31,
2008.
Replying to a query,
he said the government is considering a proposal of charging a one-time entry fee for spectrum allocation beyond 6.2 MHz of spectrum.
He said TRAI is seeking penalty powers on telephone companies for violating its directives.
"TRAI
has sent a consolidated revised proposal to DoT to consider various amendments in the TRAI Act 1997,
which provides for imposition of penalty on telephone operators for violation of its directions," Minister said.
The
government has collected Rs 26,207.11 crore as Universal Service Levy as on June 30, 2009,
since the inception of Universal Service Obligation Fund in April 2002.Out of this Rs 6,948.64 crore have been reimbursed to BSNL for the payment of license fee and spectrum charges to
DoT, Pilot said.
Pilot said the net profit of BSNL has fallen sharply from Rs 7,806
crore in 2006-07 to Rs 575 crore in 2008-09
due to surrender of fixed telephones, decreased tariffs and wage costs.
BSNL,
which has started 3G services in selected cities has 10,733 subscribers
for the service, while MTNL had 902 subscribers for 3G services
as on June 2009.
BSNL
has planned a capex of Rs 2,700 crore for the first phase of 3G rollout and proposes to provide 3G
services in 760 cities in the first phase covering district headquarters, commercially important
towns and tourist places. The work will be completed by 2010-11.
MTNL plans to spend Rs 300 crore for offering 3G services in
Delhi and Mumbai and is adding 7.5
lakh lines each in Delhi and Mumbai.
BSNL's 3G
response is very poor.

in two years (Profit after Tax fell sharply to Rs 104 crores in 2008-09 from Rs. 3009 crores in 2007-08)--- Hon. MOC meets
senior officers today. <<News>>
It is reliably understood that latest figure of BSNL's profit for 2008-09 is Rs. 576
Crores instead of Rs.104 crores. However the erosion in the net profit is
alarming especially in landline sector. We are pursuing with the Management to post more Executives in the revenue generating
areas such as field units, sales &marketing etc instead of offices. Focus has to be given to rural areas where more potential
is there.
