The Tamil Nadu circle union and Chennai Telephones circle union have brought to the notice of the CHQ that, the 8 candidates of Tamil Nadu circle and 14 candidates of Chennai Telephones circle have been allotted with seats at ALTTC, Ghaziabad, for their JTO Phase-I training. ALTTC, Ghaziabad is a far away place and the candidates from Tamil Nadu and Chennai Telephones circle will suffer a lot, if they are compelled to undergo JTO Phase-I training there. The CHQ of BSNLEU took up this issue with the GM(Rectt.), Corporate Office. The GM(Rectt.) has acted immediately and now training is re-arranged for the Tamil Nadu and Chennai Telephones circle candidates at RGMTTC, Chennai, itself. BSNLEU heartily thanks the GM(Rectt.), Corporate Office for the swift action.

तमिलनाडु और चेन्नई टेलीफोन सर्किल के उम्मीदवारों के लिए आरजीएमटीटीसी में जेटीओ चरण-I प्रशिक्षण की पुन: व्यवस्था – BSNLEU त्वरित कार्रवाई के लिए जनरल मैनेजर (Rectt.) को धन्यवाद देता है।

तमिलनाडु सर्किल यूनियन और चेन्नई टेलीफोन सर्किल यूनियन ने सीएचक्यू के संज्ञान में लाया है कि तमिलनाडु सर्कल के 8 उम्मीदवारों और चेन्नई टेलीफोन सर्कल के 14 उम्मीदवारों को उनके जेटीओ चरण -1 प्रशिक्षण के लिए एएलटीटीसी, गाजियाबाद में सीटें आवंटित की गई हैं। एएलटीटीसी, गाजियाबाद बहुत दूर है और तमिलनाडु और चेन्नई टेलीफोन सर्किल के उम्मीदवारों को बहुत नुकसान होगा, अगर उन्हें वहां जेटीओ चरण -1 प्रशिक्षण से गुजरने के लिए मजबूर किया जाता है। BSNLEU के सीएचक्यू ने इस मुद्दे को जनरल मैनेजर (Rectt.), कॉर्पोरेट कार्यालय के साथ उठाया। जनरल मैनेजर (Rectt.) ने तुरंत कार्रवाई की है और अब आरजीएमटीटीसी, चेन्नई में ही तमिलनाडु और चेन्नई टेलीफोन सर्किल के उम्मीदवारों के लिए प्रशिक्षण की फिर से व्यवस्था की गई है। BSNLEU त्वरित कार्रवाई के लिए जनरल मैनेजर (Rectt.), कॉर्पोरेट कार्यालय को हृदयपूर्वक धन्यवाद देता है।

ओए स्तर पर कार्यरत जिला यूनियनों को कार्यालय स्थान सुविधा जारी रखना - BSNLEU निदेशक (मानव संसाधन) को लिखता है।
