Dear Members and well-wishers,
Greetings

This piece of write-up is to address a recent claim made on the SNEA CHQ website regarding a supposed special meeting between AIBSNLEA and SNEA for stronger unity of Executives in BSNL. We would like to categorically state that no such special meeting has been conducted or scheduled between AIBSNLEA and SNEA. The claim made by SNEA seems to be an attempt to create unnecessary confusion among members of AIBSNLEA. We urge everyone to exercise caution and not be influenced by baseless rumours.

It is a fact that AIBSNLEA leaders visited GS SNEA to seek the support of SNEA in favour of AIBSNLEA in the 3rd MVP since AIBSNLEA individually participating in the MVP.

AIBSNLEA is committed to fostering a harmonious and constructive environment among all Associations in BSNL including AIGETOA, SNEA, SEWA etc . AIBSNLEA has always been supporting the unification of all Associations in BSNL for the larger interest of BSNL executives because any of the major issues of executives like Standard Pay Scales(E2/E3) , E1+5 increments , Pay Parity 22820, 3rd PRC, 30 SAB , Mass Promotions as AIBSNLEA carried out in 2018 for @14000 executives etc has not been achieved in the last three years . Our focus is on addressing the challenges faced by the executives and working towards the betterment of BSNL as a whole. We believe in open communication, transparency, and collaboration to achieve the objectives of executive community in BSNL.

We understand that some misinformation can potentially create troubles and unnecessary conflicts, leading to an overall unhealthy situation and may be interpreted as attempts to fish in troubled waters and divert attention from the un-settled burning issues in hand.

For accurate and reliable information about AIBSNLEA's activities and initiatives, we encourage you to visit our official website or reach out to our designated representatives. We are committed to providing transparent and timely updates to our members and stakeholders.

Thank you for your attention and ongoing support. Let us continue working together for the betterment of the BSNL and to attain the much-delayed demands of we executives in BSNL.

Join en masse to AIBSNLEA though the ESS Portal from 16-06-23 to 15-07-2023 and Support AIBSNLEA in the ensuing 3rd MVP for a better experience

Thanking You 
GS AIBSNLEA

15.06.2023    GS AIBSNLEA reply to the letter of GS SNEA seeking support for ensuing 3rd MVP....

Sub: Reverential and fervent appeal for the support of your association to AIBSNLEA in the ensuing 3rd MVP in BSNL reg.

Ref : Your letter No.SNEA CHQ/3rd MVP/2023 dated 27th April 2023

Respected Sir,
Best Greetings.

I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. As you are rightly pointed out in your letter under reference , AIBSNLEA is a prominent association representing executives from all the streams in Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL). This association has been actively working towards the betterment of the executive community and fostering a conducive environment for their wellbeing.

As you are aware of the fact that BSNL has been undergoing significant transformations in recent years, and our executive community has faced numerous challenges during this period of transition. In these challenging times, it has become imperative for the executives’ associations to unite and work together for the betterment of BSNL and the executives it represents.

The 3rd Membership Verification Process (MVP) expected in September 2023 presents a unique opportunity for all the Executive Associations in BSNL to come together and create a unified front. We believe that a collaborative approach, driven by the collective expertise and experience of various associations, will result in enhanced representation and more substantial benefits for the executives in our organization.

We would like to express our appreciation and sincere gratitude for the noteworthy and genuine depiction made by your worthy intellect about the functioning of AIBSNLEA CHQ in BSNL Corporate Office along with the unparallel synergy among the leaders of AIBSNLEA at CHQ level in extracting multiple benefits for the executive community from the BSNL management. Yes, AIBSNLEA has been consistently demonstrating its commitment to the welfare of executives and has achieved commendable milestones in securing their rights and privileges.

As proof , the AIBSNLEA Vision and Positive approach benefited thousands of Executives by Promotion through CPCs, which is a Major breakthrough and Achievement of AIBSNLEA: Due to consistent , dedicated and untiring efforts of AIBSNLEA, CPCs were conducted in all disciplines to fill up all the vacancies in almost all Cadres resulted about 14,000 Executives had been promoted in June-July, 2018 and Nov, 2018. Out of these massive promotions , thousands and thousands of posts were created for promotion by upgrading the posts due to the visionary leadership of the AIBSNLEA. This has given a great relief and morale booster to all the Executives who were waiting for their eligible promotions for years together. It is a mile stone in the History of DoT and BSNL. As you are well aware of by strong footing with the Forum of Executives’ Associations in BSNL , AIBSNLEA expecting the repetition of 2018 once again in 2023 through the immediate withholding of further action on draft MS RR 2023 for the execution of regular promotions for all the eligible thousands and thousands of Executives from JTO to SDE , SDE to AGM , AGM to DGM and equivalent cadres in all the streams of BSNL in cascading way as per existing MSRR-2009 including all those who will complete their residency period as on 01.01.2023. AIBSNLEA strongly feels standard Pay Scales E2/E3, 30% SAB etc are the birth rights of BSNL DRs from their birth to BSNL and AIBSNLEA has been working for the same.

After the assessment of the post 2nd MVP scenario in BSNL, AIBSNLEA Chennai AIC 2022 decided AIBSNLEA will participate in the 3rd MVP individually. Subsequently, AIBSNLEA CWC New Delhi 2023 also supported that the need of the time is for the participation of AIBSNLEA in the 3rd MVP individually. Understandably, this is what every BSNL executive wishes for extracting something from BSNL management effectively for the benefits of BSNL Executives’ community including the long pending 3rd PRC of BSNL employees.
Hence, considering the significant contributions made by AIBSNLEA, we would be honoured to seek your association's (The Sanchar Nigam Executives' Association, SNEA) support in the upcoming 3rd Membership Verification Process. Your invaluable support and collaboration will play a crucial role in fostering a sense of unity among all executive associations and ensuring the best interests of both BSNL and its executives are safeguarded.

We request you to kindly consider the proposal of AIBSNLEA favourably by extending the wholehearted support of SNEA to AIBSNLEA in the 3rd MVP in terms of casting votes of all your members to the Success of AIBSNLEA . Together, we can create a powerful force that advocates for the well-being and professional growth of the executives while bolstering BSNL's position in the telecommunication industry. Recognizing the importance of unity among associations, we strongly believe that the support of your esteemed association, SNEA to AIBSNLEA in the upcoming MVP would be highly beneficial for the executive community in BSNL. By joining forces, we can amplify our collective voices, effectively address the challenges faced by executives, and work towards achieving common objectives that align with the interests of both BSNL and its executives.

Your active support will help AIBSNLEA to score more than 50% of voting share in the 3rd MVP. We look forward to the opportunity of working hand in hand with SNEA towards a brighter future for BSNL and its executives by taking the total support of SNEA to AIBSNLEA in the next MVP. We are confident that you and your active team of SNEA leaders at CHQ and in all along India will respond to our reverential and fervent appeal for the support of your association to AIBSNLEA in the ensuing 3rd MVP in BSNL very positively.

With warm regards,                                                                          Yours Sincerely ,
                                                                                                              
Copy to :

07.06.2023    GS Com Shaji, President Com Rajpal Sharma and Dy GS Com. J.K Patel met PGM (Pers) Shri S.N. Gupta ji and greeted him upon his elevation to the post of PGM. PGM (Pers) reciprocate with profound thanks. AIBSNLEA leaders had an elaborate discussion on all the pending issues of Promotions, transfer/Posting etc. AIBSNLEA appreciated PGM (Pers) for the timely release of the DPC Calendar for 2023.

JTO(T) to SDE(T) Promotion in LICE & SQ :
As per the letter No: BSNLCO-11/13(11)/2/2023-RECTT-CO dated:15/05/2023, the notification for the SDE LICE for the vacancy year 2022 has been issued for the total vacancy of 203 only. The last LDCE was notified in 2014 by the BSNL CO letter No. 24-1/2014-Rectt. Dated 13/11/2014 for the vacancy year 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14 and total vacancy 3296 (2025+273+323+675). Thus, the recent notification in 2023 was released after a span of around 9 years for lone 203 vacancies brewed up apprehensions in the minds of SDE aspirants that more vacancies would be there, even after restructuring norms. AIBSNLEA requested to explore the possibilities of enhancing anymore vacancies. PGM(Pers) replied that the vacancy calculations are done after strict and vigilant measures and hence possibility of losing any single vacancy would not be there. Further PGM(Pers) instructed DGM(Pers) to have a thorough discussion with AIBSNLEA on it.

AIBSNLEA submitted that the JTO AIEL-3 compared to AIEL-4 and other JTO AIELs, is prepared for the Recruitment Year 2012 as per the marks obtained from the training centres and not according to the Vacancy Year. In AIEL-3 candidates of the vacancy year 2009, 2010 etc are there so it is natural that vacancy year 2009 candidates should be given priority in merit with respect to vacancy year subsequent VYs. Though its sub judice in this point of time, we requested to have a homogeneous treatment to all JTO AIELs so that chance of anymore litigations which delay the JTO to SDE promotion process under SQ would not come up in future.

Also, as per the corporate office order No BSNLCO-PRII/18(11)/28/2020-PERS-II dated 28/04/2023, VC & Screening Committee Report of first 500 JTOs were called from AIEL for SDE promotion under 67% SQ. But the final AIEL-3 published in the intranet portal having the names of a large number of retired, VRS and deceased officers too. We requested PGM(Pers) to call more numbers of VC & SCR for more numbers of working JTOs to cover up the officers who were in service but now enlisted for CPC, if number of VC & SCR called for JTOs are falling within the 1.5+ times of the number of vacancies. PGM(Pers) assured to look into the matter. Understandably around 600 VCs & SCRs (1.5 times) for around 400 SQ vacancies are already called for from Corporate Office.

Pending SDE(T) to AGM (T) & all other Promotion.
We requested to complete the promotion process from SDE(T) to AGM (T) and all other pending promotions timely as per the scheduled CPC Calendar, PGM assured to complete the promotion process timely as per the CPC calendar for 2023.

OTP request transfer for Jan 2023:

AIBSNLEA requested to consider and release transfer orders for all the qualified OTP transfer request for Jan 2023 window without further delay. PGM (Pers) assured that the request transfers will be considered within two-weeks’ time.

Retention/Cancellation/Circle-Change request: Case of Inter-circle long stay transfer orders of AGMT/SDET and equivalent levels.

AIBSNLEA requested to consider the genuine Retention/Cancellation/Circle-Change requests of the executives in the Inter-circle long stay transfer orders without delay. As of now it is much needed as many executives have been joining to transferred circle/units and some executives in the circle/units are expecting their retention in the working units on genuine grounds. This creates some sort of confusions to management in issuing posting orders for the incoming officers and vice versa. PGM (Pers) shared that the process is already on but the large number of retention etc requests are delaying the process. However, it is assured that the eligible Retention/Cancellation/Circle-Change requests will be considered and the orders will completely be released within two weeks’ time. PGM communicated that some of the orders for SDE-T is already finalised for release as committed in the last week meeting with AIBSNLEA.

AIBSNLEA requested not to do ERP struck off of the transferred officers in a hurry as it has been done unfortunately upon some of the transfer orders issued recently. PGM (Pers) assured that firstly BSNL CO will writes to Circles/Unit heads to relieve the transferred officers.

GS Com Shaji, President Com Rajpal Sharma and Auditor CHQ Com Slathia met Shri P.C. Bhatt ji PGM (EF) and discussed about the pending issues in the Finance Vertical.

Request for exploring the possibility to approach Hon’ble Supreme Court of India to get vacation of ‘Status Quo’ in the court case pending for more than 4 years before Hon’ble CAT Chandigarh in OA No 60/1435/2018 in AO to CAO promotion, as this is a lone unresolved promotion which is pending since 30.11.2018:

We requested that It is our firm view that if BSNL will approach to higher court, certainly relief can be achieved for the go ahead for AO to CAO promotion. It is therefore once again fervently appeal to explore the possibilities to approach the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India to get relaxation in the above case so that the very lone pending promotion orders can be issued instantly since the Hon’ble Supreme Court has not stopped the promotions on the similar subject despite pending SLPs. The next date of hearing in this case is listed for 07.08.2023 in CAT Chandigarh, after a long gap of 4 months. AIBSNLEA will certainly applauds the proactive efforts to be taken in this regard by BSNL and hopeful that this moves to approach the Hon’ble Supreme Court for the vacation of “Status Quo” in AO to CAO promotion may succeed to unlock this deadlock. PGM(EF) shared that this delay in AO to CAO promotion is very unfortunate episode in the history of Finance Stream. PGM(EF) assured to discuss the matter with the CMD BSNL.

Updating the ERP matters of finance executives  :

AIBSNLEA leaders submitted that after the reminder from BSNL CO to all Circles and Unit heads to complete the Data Updating of finance executives in ERP pertaining to stay particulars, chronic disease/disability of self or dependent family member, many queries are hitting to AIBSNLEA CHQ on the necessity of the updating now in the backdrop that the inter-circle rotational transfer is frequently happening with Finance Stream for long. PGM (EF) replied that the process of updating ERP as per the general strict guidelines of matter initiated from BSNL CO and nothing pertaining to issuance of any additional long stay transfer orders. AIBSNLEA also requested to curtail the practice of transferring officers belongs to Finance vertical from South to North, East to West and vice versa. Instead, the inter-circle transfers may be made among the nearby circles, wherever very much needed. PGM (EF) totally shared the concern of AIBSNLEA and assured to do the same now onwards. We reciprocate sincere thanks to the PGM (EF) BSNL CO.

AIBSNLEA leaders updated the matter to PGM (EF) and requested to issue the promotion orders for the officers without delay with effect from the date of their officiating. PGM (EF) assured to do the needful and asked AIBSNLEA to submit the details of the case.

Much delayed 3rd PRC:

Being the PGM (Establishment Finance) is In-charge of CBB (Corporate Banking & Budget) unit too, AIBSNLEA requested Shri PC Bhatt Sir to give all round support for the move of AIBSNLEA for achieving 3rd PRC for BSNL employees. We communicated the positive response of CMD BSNL shared to AIBSNLEA CHQ for our move for 3rd PRC. PGM (CBB) totally shared our wish and move for the 3rd PRC and commented that he is also strongly stand and supported for the early settlement of this much delayed and legitimate right of 3rd PRC to every BSNL employee. AIBSNLEA leaders whole heartedly appreciated the PGM (EF) for the supportive and speedy action on all the genuine appeals submitted on behalf of the officers in finance stream.

<< GS Letter to the DIR HR>>

01.06.2023    GS writes to CMD BSNL Shri Purwar Ji requesting for continuation of BSNL MRS Policy with restoration of annual reimbursement ceiling of one month of Basic Pay + DA for the Outdoor treatment of BSNL Employees/retirees.

....it has come to our attention that there have been suggestions from some corners about discontinuing the BSNL MRS policy. This association must emphasize the importance of maintaining this policy without any disruptions. The MRS policy serves as a vital safety net for employees and retirees, ensuring that they have access to healthcare services and can afford necessary medical treatments.

If BSNL needs to make cost-effective decisions, this association firmly believes that the welfare and health of employees and retirees should remain a top priority for BSNL. Discontinuing or reducing the benefits of the MRS policy would not only have a negative impact on the lives of individuals directly affected, but could also lead to demotivation and dissatisfaction among the workforce....

11.05.2023     GS  writes to the CMD BSNL Shri P.K. Purwar ji after the AIBSNLEA CWC New Delhi for the implementation of 3rd Pay Revision Committee (PRC) recommendations to the BSNL Employees with effect from 01-01-2017 . The topic for the open session in the AIBSNLEA CWC New Delhi 2023 was "Profit Efficiency of BSNL & 3rd PRC to its Employees ".

Respected Sir,

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your exceptional leadership and efforts in arranging revival packages for Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL). Your unwavering dedication and strategic vision have played a crucial role in reviving BSNL's operations and positioning the company for added revenue in the fiscal year 2022-2023. The challenges faced by BSNL in recent years were significant, but under your guidance, the company has witnessed a remarkable turnaround. Your proactive approach in securing revival packages has not only stabilized BSNL's financial situation but has also provided the necessary impetus for its growth and profitability.

Your strategic decisions, such as expanding BSNL's network infrastructure, modernizing its services, and introducing innovative plans, have resonated with customers and contributed to the company's increased revenue. Your ability to identify new opportunities, adapt to market dynamics, and align BSNL's offerings with customer needs has been commendable. Furthermore, your focus on enhancing customer experience and ensuring the highest standards of service has earned BSNL a positive reputation in the industry. By prioritizing customer satisfaction and addressing their evolving requirements, you have positioned BSNL as a trusted and reliable telecommunications provider.

This achievement is also a testament to the hard work and dedication of the BSNL employees, who have consistently strived to provide exceptional telecommunication services to the Nation. I am writing this letter on behalf of the dedicated employees of BSNL, who have been eagerly awaiting for the implementation of the 3rd Pay Revision Committee (PRC). We believe that the increase in revenue is a clear indicator of the company's growth and success, and it is only fair that the hardworking employees are duly rewarded for their efforts.

The 3rd PRC is an important step towards ensuring that the wages of BSNL employees remain competitive and in line with industry standards. It will not only enhance the morale and motivation of the workforce but also attract and retain skilled professionals, enabling BSNL to continue its upward trajectory.

As you are aware, the implementation of the 3rd PRC has been a longstanding demand of the employees, and it is a matter of great concern that the decision has not been finalized yet. We understand that various factors need to be taken into consideration, including the financial health of the company. However, the recent increase in revenue is a positive sign and presents an opportune moment to address the long-pending issue of the PRC.

Sir, understandably, the BSNL revenue from operations increased by Rs 860 crore i.e., around 5.10% (unaudited) in this FY of 2022-23 compared to that in the previous FY. It is also understood informally that the gross revenue of BSNL in this FY 2022–23 has increased by around Rs 2000 crore compared to that of last FY 2021–22. On our rough calculations, the additional gross financial expenditure of BSNL for implementing the 3rd PRC with the full fitment benefit of 15% of BP+DA stands around 500 Crores , 10% of BP+DA stands around 350 Crores, etc. and the same is very much affordable to BSNL as of now.

We urge you, as the esteemed CMD of BSNL, to expedite the implementation of the 3rd PRC for the benefit of the entire workforce. It is our sincere belief that a well-compensated workforce is essential for the growth and success of any organization, and BSNL should be no exception. By fulfilling this rightful demand, you will not only recognize the hard work of the employees but also inspire them to continue delivering their best for the betterment of the company.

AIBSNLEA is extremely blissful and enthusiastic after the very positive response from your kindness on our request for the implementation of the 3rd PRC for BSNL Employees during the meeting your goodwill consented to this Association on 09-05-2023. The topic for the open session in the AIBSNLEA CWC New Delhi 2023 was "Profit Efficiency of BSNL & 3rd PRC to its Employees ". The same was discussed in all its dimensions and AIBSNLEA CWC resolved to request the worthy CMD BSNL for the implementation of 3rd PRC to the employees of BSNL in a befitting way with at least 5% fitment to motivate all the employees to gear up for adopting with the sea changes planned to happen in BSNL along with the induction of indigenous 4G & other services. In addition to the motivation of the ten thousands of BSNL Employees, the implementation of 3rd PRC in BSNL will encourage the lakhs and lakhs of the family members of these working Employees. Sir, we have full faith in your leadership and vision, and we are confident that you will consider our request earnestly. Your support in implementing the 3rd PRC will not only strengthen the bond between the management and the employees but also reinforce BSNL's position as a leading telecommunications provider in the country.

Thank you, Sir, for your attention to this matter. We eagerly await a positive response and look forward to witnessing a fair and timely implementation of the 3rd PRC.

09.05.2023     Today, the AIBSNLEA CHQ Leaders met the Worthy CMD BSNL Shri. PK Purwar ji and felicitated him after the Successful Conduction of AIBSNLEA CWC New Delhi -2023.

All the pending issues, including the recommendation of the 3rd PRC to BSNL employees, have been discussed at length. AIBSNLEA shared the topic of AIBSNLEA CWC New Delhi 2023 " The Profit Efficiency of BSNL & 3rd PRC to its Employees " and requested to consider the recommendation for 3rd PRC to BSNL employees in the backdrop of the very good added revenue from operations.

BSNL revenue increased by  Rs 860 crore ie, @ 5.10% (unaudited) in this FY of 2022-23 compared to that in the previous FY. It is also understood informally that the gross revenue of BSNL in this FY 2022–23 has increased by around Rs 2000 crore compared to that of last FY 2021–22.

The implementation of the 3rd PRC has been a longstanding demand of the employees, and it is a matter of great concern that the decision has not been finalised yet. We understand that various factors need to be taken into consideration, including the financial health of the company. However, the recent high increase in revenue is a positive sign and presents an opportune moment to address the long-pending issue of the PRC.

We urged the esteemed CMD of BSNL, to expedite the implementation of the 3rd PRC for the benefit of the entire workforce. It is our sincere belief that a well-compensated workforce is essential for the growth and success of any organisation, and BSNL should be no exception. By fulfilling this rightful demand, BSNL management will not only recognise the hard work of the employees but also inspire them to continue delivering their best for the betterment of the company.
