Discrimination in granting special increments to the sports personnel.

In the Formal Meeting held with the Director (HR) on 13.06.2022, BSNLEU took up the issue of non-granting of special increments to the deserving sports personnel. At the same time, special increments have been sanctioned to the 3 officials working / worked in the Corporate Office. The GM(Admn.) argued that everything has been done properly. However, BSNLEU insisted to examine the file, which was accepted by the Director (HR). Accordingly, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS and Com.John Verghese, Dy.GS, went through the Committee’s Report today, in the GM(Admn)’s office. It is found that, out of the 33 cases received by the Corporate Office, only 3 cases have been approved and the remaining 30 cases have been rejected. Only the cases of 3 officials of the Corporate Office have been approved. It is found that many cases duly recommended by various CGMs have gone missing and not at all looked into by the Committee. Many deserving cases have also been rejected by the Committee. Prima-facie, it appears that the Committee meeting had taken place, only to approve the cases of 3 Corporate Office officials. BSNLEU will once again write to the Director (HR) in this connection. In the meanwhile, Sports Personnel, whose cases have been recommended and sent to the Corporate Office by their CGMs, may e-mail a copy of their CGM office letter on bsnleuchq@gmail.com.

However, by evening yesterday, around 40,000 tweets have been made with the #BSNL_PayRevision hashtag. Such a huge Twitter Campaign has certainly sent the right signal to the Hon’ble Minister of Communications, as well as to the DoT that, the 3rd Pay Revision / Wage Revision of BSNL employees cannot be dismissed just like that. The success of the Twitter Campaign has given the confidence that, the AUAB will move on the top- gear for  settling the 3rd Pay Revision / Wage Revision of BSNL employees.

वर्ष 2002 में बिहार सर्कल के दरभंगा जिले से संबंधित 140 टीएसएम को रेग्युलर मज़दूर के रूप में नियुक्त किया गया था। इन सभी को दिनांक 01-10-2000 से पहले अस्थायी दर्जा प्रदान किया गया था। लेकिन, अभी भी उन्हें प्रेसिडेंशियल ओर्डर जारी नहीं किए गए हैं। 140 आर.एम. में से कुछ कर्मचारियों की मौत हो चुकी है और कई अन्य सेवानिवृत्त हो चुके हैं। राष्ट्रपति के आदेश जारी न किए जाने के कारण उन्हें पेंशन/पारिवारिक पेंशन का निपटान नहीं किया गया है। सीएचक्यू ने इस मामले को उठाया है और निदेशक (एचआर) को एक विस्तृत पत्र लिखा है।

Formal Meeting between the Director (HR) and BSNLEU held yesterday the 13.06.2022.

BSNLEU has sought a Formal Meeting with the Director (HR) to discuss certain burning issues of the employees. This meeting was held yesterday. Shri Arvind Vadnerkar, Director (HR) presided over the meeting. Shri Saurabh Tyagi, PGM(Estt.), Ms. Anita Johri, PGM (SR) and Shri S.P. Singh, GM(Admn.) were present in the meeting. Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS and Com.John Verghese, Dy.GS, participated in the meeting. The details of the discussion are given below:-

 

  1. Implementation of a New Promotion Policy to the Non-Executives of BSNL.

Union pointed out that, there are many discriminations between the Executive Promotion Policy (EPP) and the Non-Executive Promotion Policy (NEPP). The Union also pointed out that, within the NEPP also, discriminations are there between the employees absorbed from the DoT and the employees Directly Recruited by BSNL. The Union demanded that a New Promotion Policy is required which will remove all these discriminations. Similarly, the Union also pointed out that, the agreement for NEPP was signed 14 years ago and a lot of changes have taken place during this period. Hence, implementation of a New Promotion Policy for the Non-Executives has become inevitable. The Director (HR) gave a patient hearing and told that the issue would be looked into.  

 

  1. Urgent need to relax the ban imposed on Compassionate Ground Appointments.

The Union strongly argued that the ban on Compassionate Ground Appointments should be urgently reviewed. The Union argued that the ban should be relaxed at least to provide job to the families of the employees who have died in the Covid pandemic and also the employees who die in accidents while performing their duties. In reply to this, the Director (HR) replied that the BSNL Management has taken steps to provide cash compensation, instead of providing Compassionate Ground Appointments. BSNLEU said that providing cash compensation is not acceptable to the Union and insisted that Compassionate Ground Appointments should be provided.

 

  1. Holding of the JE LICE, JAO LICE, JTO(OL) LICE, Telecom Technician LICE and other LICEs of the Non-Executives.

BSNLEU strongly demanded that JE LICE, JAO LICE, JTO(OL) LICE, Telecom Technician LICE and other LICEs of the Non-Executives should be conducted immediately. The Director (HR) replied that notification for JE LICE will be issued shortly and steps would also be taken to hold all other LICEs of the Non-Executives.

 

  1. Inordinate delay in issuing Presidential Orders to the TSMs who were directly promoted as Telecom Technicians.

Presidential Orders (PO) are already issued for the TSMs who were regularised as RMs. However, around 450 TSMs who were directly promoted as Telecom Technicians are not yet issued with POs. BSNLEU is continuously taking up this issue. On this issue, the Director (HR) replied that the DoT has completely rejected this case. However, BSNLEU requested that this issue should be taken up by the CMD BSNL at the level of the Secretary, Telecom.

 

  1. Non-granting of special increments / promotions to the deserving sports personnels and granting special increments clandestinely to some Corporate Office officials.

BSNLEU accused that the Management has not considered the special increments for the deserving sports personnel, as recommended by their CGMs. At the same time, the Management has granted special increments only to 3 officials working in the Corporate Office. BSNLEU accused that irregularity is suspected in this case. After detailed discussion, the Director (HR) stated that representatives of BSNLEU can go through the relevant Corporate Office files and discussion can continue thereafter. BSNLEU agreed for this.

 

  1. Non-providing of passwords to the Non-Executives.

BSNLEU has long been demanding that the Sr.TOAs working in E-offices should be provided with passwords. Long back, Director (HR) assured that 25% of the Sr.TOAs working in E-offices would be provided with passwords. However, this assurance is not implemented. This issue was discussed in detail and the Director (HR) assured that Corporate Office would issue letter to all the CGMs in this connection.

 

  1. Denial of transfer under Rule 8 to DR JEs - requesting to take action to mitigate their sufferings.

BSNLEU is continuously demanding that all the DR JEs who have completed 5 years of service and who have applied for Rule 8 transfers should be relieved without delay. This issue was discussed in yesterday’s meeting. BSNLEU pointed that even the Corporate Office order of relieving DR JEs from surplus circles to deficient circles, is not being implemented. In this regard, BSNLEU pointed out the case of NE-I circle. The Director (HR) assured that steps would be taken to relieve DR JEs from surplus circles to deficient circles. As regards, other cases, he stated that immediately relieving them is not possible.

 

  1. Imposing rigorous conditions in the JAO Recruitment Rules.

BSNLEU has already opposed the rigorous conditions being imposed in the JAO Recruitment Rules. For example, it is proposed that 5 years of service in NE-9 pay scale is essential for appearing in the JAO LICE. In yesterday’s meeting, BSNLEU demanded that this condition should be removed. The Director (HR) replied that this condition would be relaxed. He further assured that before finalising the new Recruitment Rules for JAO, the views of the Recognised Unions would be taken.  

 

  1. Non-declaration of the results of the JTO LICE conducted in Punjab circle.

BSNLEU is continuously taking up the issue of non-declaration of the JTO LICE results in Punjab circle. This issue was once again discussed with the Director (HR) in yesterday’s meeting. The Director (HR) replied that BSNL has already filed a Miscellaneous Petition in the Hon’ble CAT, Chandigarh, requesting the permission of the Hon’ble Court, to declare the JTO LICE results. However, he stated that, the case is not coming for hearing, due to shortage of judges in the Hon’ble CAT, Chandigarh. He further assured that BSNL would do everything necessary to expedite declaration of JTO LICE results in Punjab circle.

दिनांक 13-06-2022 को आयोजित औपचारिक बैठक में BSNLEU ने बताया कि एक्ज़िक्यूटिव्स प्रमोशन पोलीसी (ईपीपी) और नॉन एक्ज़िक्यूटिव्स प्रमोशन पोलीसी (एनईपीपी) के बीच कई भेदभाव हैं। BSNLEU ने यह भी बताया कि एनईपीपी के भीतर भी दूरसंचार विभाग से अवशोषित कर्मचारियों और बीएसएनएल द्वारा सीधे भर्ती किए गए कर्मचारियों के बीच भेदभाव किया जाता है। यूनियन ने मांग की कि एक नई पदोन्नति नीति की आवश्यकता है जो इन सभी भेदभावों को दूर करेगी। इसी तरह, यूनियन ने यह भी बताया कि एनईपीपी के लिए समझौते पर 14 साल पहले हस्ताक्षर किए गए थे और इस अवधि के दौरान बहुत सारे बदलाव हुए हैं। अत: नॉन एक्ज़िक्यूटिव्स के लिए नई प्रमोशन पोलीसी का कार्यान्वयन अनिवार्य हो गया है। निदेशक (मानव संसाधन) ने धैर्यपूर्वक सुनवाई की और बताया कि इस मुद्दे पर गौर किया जाएगा।

Holding the JTO LICE with posts available as on 31.01.2020.

BSNLEU is consistently demanding that the JTO LICE should be held on 07.08.2022, with the posts that were available as on 31.01.2020. This issue is once again discussed with the Director (HR) yesterday. Com.Suresh Kumar, GS, SNATTA and Com.Himanshu Jha (CHQ-SNATTA) were also present during this discussion. BSNLEU explained in detail, how the Management is discriminating between the Executives and the Non-Executives in the matter of promotions. It was strongly demanded that the JTO LICE should be conducted with the posts that were available as on 31.01.2020 and also the examination should be conducted based on year wise vacancies. In reply to this, the Director (HR) stated that, to address the problem of non-availability of vacancies in 11 circles, as well as less number of vacancies in 9 circles, the Management will conduct one more JTO LICE, by diverting 50% of the DR quota posts of the year 2021. He also stated that, this special examination will be conducted soon after the JTO LICE to be held on 07.08.2022. He also stated that candidates of all circles can appear in this exam. BSNLEU, as well as the leaders of the SNATTA insisted that the problem could be solved only by holding the JTO LICE, to be held on 07.08.2022, with the posts available as on 31.01.2020.
