Review the arbitrary sports compendium.

Career Progression.

Regarding career progression, we bought to the notice that many deserving candidates who have applied have been left out. All the cases recommended by the CGM sent to Corporate Office should be considered as per the old policy before implementation of the new Sports compendium. We showcased the cases of West Bengal, Odisha, Karnataka and others. The Board agreed to call for all such cases and new cases as of today and process them accordingly.

 

Director (HR) also agreed for the promotion of sports recruited person to the level of executive after getting medals at international level.

Management issued notification for holding Telecom Technician LICE as online exam – this decision is arrogant and atrocious – BSNLEU writes to the Director (HR), demanding to hold the Telecom Technician LICE as offline exam.

It is shocking to note that, the Corporate Office has issued letter on 13.04.2023 for holding the Telecom Technician LICE of an online exam. The officials who will be writing the Telecom Technician LICE are Regular Mazdoors and equivalent cadres. These employees do not know computer operation. How the Management expects the RMs and equivalent cadres to appear in the examination on computers. BSNLEU has strongly demanded that all LICEs for the promotion of one Non-Executive cadre to another Non-Executive cadre, should be conducted only as offline exam. This issue was raised in the National Council and the Management Side has accepted the demand. However, thereafter, the Management has violated this assurance and has conducted the JE LICE as online exam. Now, the Management has issued notification to hold the Telecom Technician LICE also as online exam. This decision of the Management is arrogant and atrocious. BSNLEU has written letter to the Director (HR) today, demanding the Management to hold the Telecom Technician LICE as offline exam.
