For the past more than one year, the leaders and members of BSNLEU throughout the country, have sincerely implemented the calls of the CHQ, to get on time salary payment.

Issuing Presidential Orders to the Non-Executives recruited by the DoT, but were appointed by BSNL.

Several hundreds of Non-Executives, who were recruited and sent for training by the DoT, but were appointed after the formation of BSNL, are being treated as BSNL recruiters. They are not issued with Presidential Orders. Hence, they are not entitled for government pension and GPF. Several of these affected employees have approached the court. Various CATs and the High Courts of Kerala and Rajasthan have given judgements that, these officials should be treated as DoT recruitees. However, the BSNL Management has appealed against these judgements in the Supreme Court. The case is lingering on for several years. BSNLEU is continuously insisting upon the BSNL Management to take steps for the early disposal of this case. In the meeting held with Shri Arvind Vadnerkar, Director (HR), on 30th March, 2021, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, once again discussed this issue. He also discussed this issue with the Sr. GM (SR) and DGM, Legal, NTR circle. BSNL Management has to advise it’s Advocate in the Supreme Court, to take steps for the early completion of the hearing of this case. BSNLEU will further pursue this case actively, for an early settlement.

ETG decides to allow BSNL to procure 4G equipments from global vendors..

BSNL’s 4G service launching is getting terribly delayed. The stand of the government that, BSNL should procure the core equipments of 4G only from Indian companies, is delaying BSNL’s 4G launching. This delay is threatening the very future of BSNL and it’s employees. BSNLEU is continuously taking up this issue at the level of the Minister for Communications and Prime Minister. Even currently, BSNLEU is organising street corner meetings throughout the country, demanding the government to allow BSNL to procure 4G equipments.

 

In this backdrop, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, discussed this issue with the CMD BSNL, yesterday the 30.03.2021. During the discussion, the CMD BSNL informed the General Secretary that, the Empowered Technology Group (ETG), headed by Shri Vijay Raghavan, Principal Advisor to the Prime Minister on Science and Technology, had decided to allow BSNL to procure it’s 4G equipments from global vendors, such as Nokia, Ericsson, Samsung, etc. The CMD BSNL told that BSNL is taking steps to float a tender for this. Certainly, this is a welcome development and very big relief to BSNL. However, it will take at least one more year for BSNL to launch it’s 4G service by procuring equipments from the new tender.
