GS AIBSNLEA, Shri Prahlad Rai, congratulated the comrades of
Karnataka Circle for the successful conduction of 2nd CEC and
thanked the comrades for their participation. In his
detailed address Com. GS mentioned that the KTK Circle is a
very important Circle for AIBSNLEA. He appreciated efforts
CS and his team for increasing the membership. He pointed
out that how govt. has managed to exhaust all our reserves
in a very calculative manner and cautioned the members to
remain united and alert to safeguard their rights.
Disinvestment policy of Govt. will never allow a comfortable
position for BSNL as a bright example of MTNL's financial
position in front of us. Com. GS mentioned that the
viability and existence of BSNL is the most important issue
today and we have to analyse the reasons of BSNL's today's
position. Com GS informed that after more than Rs. 10,000
Crores profit in 2004-05, in recent past years BSNL have
made the Losses , which is a serious concern for all of us.
In his detailed address Com. GS mentioned that due to
un-helping and over-jealous attitude of some officers in the
Govt. i.e. non-payment USOF Charges i.e. Rs. 2000 Crores per
Annum from July 2011, withdrawal of ADC from July 2008,
Exhausting Rs. 36000 Crores BSNL reserve, non-reimbursement
of licenses fee, payment of interest of Rs. 13,000 Crore on
notional loan Rs. 7,500 Crores to DoT has adversely affected
the viability of BSNL. In addition to this Spectrum
Allocation and bidding process on high rates are the example
of step behaviour of the Government towards BSNL, which is a
Government owned company. Com. GS explained the efforts
extended by AIBSNLEA for the creation of a trust in LIC of
India for Leave Encashment fund of Rs. 4,825 Crores on which
BSNL is earning 400 Crores Interest per annum and leave
encashment payment is being immediately. Com. GS informed
that 4G spectrum and technology is a must in BSNL for the
public perception and its requirement. In view of that last
BSNL Board meeting has already taken a decision to get
allocated 4G spectrum from DoT. He told that BSNL needs to
pay Rs. 10,000 Crore to get allocated 4G spectrum from DoT,
wherein, Rs. 2500 crore equity has already been utilized,
remaining Rs 5000 Crore equity amount is pending which can
be adjusted towards cost of 50% of 4G spectrum and
remaining Rs. 5,000 Crore will be paid in 10 equal annual
instalments.
Com GS further explained the burning issues of the
Headquarters level. He informed that AIBSNLEA made the
presentation to 3rd PRC committee for relaxing
the affordability clause due to social obligation and BSNL's
role in natural calamities. He mentioned that BSNL has the
responsibilities of TAC/CAG/CVC and Audits and the private
operators are not having these responsibilities. But even
then BSNL works for nation building and does not think about
profit or loss. Com. GS mentioned that the success of
DIGITAL INDIA fully depends on BSNL and its Employees. He
informed that due to BSNL Union and Associations opposition,
the SAM G Pitroda recommendations like 30% disinvestment,
VRS to 1 lakh employees, unbundling of the copper conductor
could not be implemented and due to the same only the BSNL
is having more than 65% BB market share at present. He
explained that how the AIBSNLEA is continuously pursuing
these viability related issue with the BSNL Management and
DoT. Com. GS opposed the move of the Government for the
creation of Tower Company and expressed its negative impact
on BSNL. Com. GS thanked all for making successful the call
of All Unions and Associations launched w.e.f 30.01.2018.
Com. GS explained in detail the efforts of AIBSNLEA in
getting resolved the important HR issues after the formation
of BSNL. He appraised the status of HR issues about AIBSNLEA
efforts for various DPCs in various cadres for adhoc
promotions, AD(OL) case, creation of PPS posts in
field Units, 30% Superannuation benefits, implementation of
Standard Pay Scales E2 and E3, Rs 22820/- pay fixation for
JTOs recruited in the year 2007 & 2008, smooth CPSU cadre
hierarchy etc. Com GS further explained the role of AIBSNLEA
in the viability of BSNL. At last he appealed the all
Executives' for making every effort to implement agitation

and vibrant organization. GS mentioned that the achievements

were not implemented in BSNL.

among the Associations and Unions, to defeat the anti-BSNL
moves of the Government. He told that DOT is always showing

quoted that DOT is charging Pension Contribution on the
maximum of the Pay-scale instead of on actual pay drawn,
which is affecting the exchequer of the BSNL badly. He told
that he brought this fact to the notice of Hon'ble Minister
during his recent meeting and Minister immediately ordered
the Secretary, DOT to look into the matter for taking
corrective measures in this regard.
