(iv) Shri A.N. Rai, CMD, BSNL regarding Cancellation/Modification of Posting orders on promotion in DEs Cadre of Karnataka, Tamilnadu, Chennai TD, STR, UP (West) Circles against vacant DEs posts. <<<Click here for letter>>>

30.10.2014: GS, Advisor (HQ) met GM (Pers) and discussed regarding-

(i) Consideration of Cancellation/modification of DEs Posting orders on promotion: We requested for the cancellation/modification of the said transfer orders by filling-up the vacant more than 30% posts of the DEs. We explained that in the past the SDEs/DEs on promotion were being posted in the same circle where the vacancies are available and the excess officers to the nearby circles. But in the recent promotion orders DEs have been posted to the distant circles keeping more than 30% vacancies in the circles which is not justified. Moreover, in the forthcoming CPC from DE to DGM, many DEs are going to be promoted from these circles which will further cause large number of vacancies. It will adversely affect the growth of these revenue earning circles. Hence, senior DEs posting orders should be cancelled and be posted in these circles to reduce the shortage in the interest of BSNL as well as in the interest of individuals. GM (Pers) mentioned that he has to fill-up the vacancies on pro-rata basis in all the circles in the interest of BSNL but however, the feedback given by the Association will be looked into. He further mentioned that some genuine medical ground cases recommended by the CGMs are being considered and some requests for modification to BSNL Corporate Office are also being considered.

(ii) CPC from JTO to SDE:  We requested to file MA for an early hearing in the court case at Hon'ble CAT Ernakulam Bench to get vacated the stay order on the JTO to SDE promotions. GM (Pers) mentioned that the case has already been listed on 17.11.2014 for hearing and the effort are being made to get vacated the stay order.

(iii) CPC from DE to DGM (Adhoc) :  GM(Pers) mentioned that the CPC work is under process and the promotion orders will be issued at the earliest.

(iv) Creation of PPS Posts in field units: GM(Pers) mentioned that shortly the committee meeting headed by ED (CN) BSNL CO will be held to discuss the issue for further necessary action.

(v)  Restructuring of AD (O/L) cadre: GM(Pers) assured an early action to process the committee report to the competent authority for consideration.

(vi) Clearance of HR issues already approved by BSNL MC and approval from BSNL Board: GM (Pers) assured an early action in this regard.

30.10.2014: Status of TES Gr."B" Rule 206 Seniority case in Hon’ble Supreme Court.: The concerned CAs/SLPs, listed as Item No. 102 in the court No. 07 came up for hearing today as per the schedule but could not be heard completely because of paucity of time.

29.10.2014: GS, AGS(C/E/Arch/TF) and AFS met the ED(NB) on 28.10.2014 and discussed the following:

(i) Conducting LDCE for promotion from JTO(TF) to SDE(TF): We highlighted the fact that since inception of SDE(TF) RR in the year 2002, not a single LDCE has been taken place. It is detrimental to the fast track promotion available to the JTO(TF)s and it should not linger further. He assured to look into the matter.

(ii) Conducting DPC for promotion from AGM(TF) to DGM(TF): We highlighted the fact that out of 14nos sanctioned DGM(TF) posts no regular DGM(TF) posts are filled up on the plea that no AGMs have completed minimum 4 years regular service. We requested that 11nos AGMs have already completed more than 3 years regular service and they can be considered for DGM(TF) promotion by relaxing the service condition to 3 years as is done in engineering side. This will not only increase the work efficiency but also open a chain for promotion from SDE(TF) to AGM(TF). He assured to look into the matter.

(iii) Implementation of upgraded pay scales from 01/10/2000: We pleaded that the TF executives shall get the upgraded pay scales from 01/10/2000 only in line with JAO's case. We expressed our concern for delay in processing the case and requested to do the needful at the earliest.  He assured to look into the matter early.

29.10.2014: GS, AGS(C/E/Arch/TF) and AFS met the PGM(BW) and discussed the following in the presence of DGM(BW):

(i) Merger of Civil Wing with SSAs: We highlighted the practical difficulties  being faced by the C/E wing executives after merger of Civil wing with the SSAs. We also highlighted the fact that the present ERP order is meant for accounts merger, but some of the CGMs are misinterpreting the order and wants complete merger of civil wing with SSAs. However some of the CGMs are also written to Corporate Office against this merger. So we pleaded that PGM(BW) being the cadre control authority for civil wing executives shall pursue  the case against merger which has been cleared by ED(NB) and awaits the approval of Dir(HR). He assured us to pursue the matter further.

(ii) Entrusting the work of construction of new DOT building over BSNL land at CTS compound, Netaji Nagar, New Delhi to CPWD: We expressed our serious concern over the attitude of DOT towards BSNL Civil wing who happens to be the PWO of DOT. In stead of awarding the work to Civil wing the award to CPWD is a black spot on Civil wing. This will act as a dampener to fetch external projects from other departments and CPWD will cash it for snatching the external projects from BSNL on  the pretext that their own parent ministry have denied the job. So we pleaded him to lodge formal protest with the DOT. We assured to do our bit by writing the issue before the hon'ble MOC. He assured us to pursue the matter further

(iii) Implementation of upgraded IDA pay scales w.e.f. 01/10/2000: We pleaded that PGM(BW) being the cadre control authority for civil wing executives shall initiate the case for implementation of IDA upgraded payscales w.e.f. 01/10/2000 for approval by the competent authority in line with JAO's case. We expressed our concern for dealy in processing the case and requested to do the needful at the earliest.  He requested the DGM(BW) present in the meeting to put up the case early.

(iv) Enhancement of Delegation of financial powers to Civil Wing Officers: We pleaded that delegation of financial powers of BSNL Civil wing officers has not been modified since 1999. Though BSNL Civil wing is adopting CPWD Manual, the delegation of financial powers of Civil wing officers vis-à-vis CPWD officers are very meager, which creates lot of inconveniences in carrying out the work at the level of SDE/EE/SE.  He appreciated our concern that enhancement of financial powers will definitely result into speedy execution of work and assured to put up the case to the competent authority early.

(v) Drawl of 2nd increment from the due date who have not completed the mandatory training within 2 years time due to sole administrative reasons: We wanted to know the status of the case which was long pending in BW unit. Many executives like JM Nayee, EE(C), Gujarat are retiring with financial loss. He informed us that they have received the information grom the GM(BS-C), ALTTC, Ghaziabad but the desired information from the CE(C) are still awaited even after two reminders. Then we requested to settle the cases for those  SDE/EEs at least whose informations are available. He agreed to this and we are hopeful that this will be cleared.

(vi) Conducting LICE for promotion from D/Man grade to JTO(C) grade : We wanted to know the status of the case which was long pending in BW unit. He informed us that file has been put up to Pers/Estt. cell for allowing certain relaxation in age. As soon as it is received the case will be expedited.

(vii) Conducting CPC for promotion from JTO(C) grade to SDE(C) grade : We wanted to know the status of the case for which ACRs have been called for 56 JTO(C). He informed that some ACRs are still awaited and as soon as these are received the cases for approximately 45 SDE(C) promotion order will be issued.

(viii) Conducting CPC for promotion from EE(C) grade to SE(C) grade : We wanted to know the status of the case for which ACRs have been called for 20 EE(C). He informed that ACRs are still awaited and as soon as these are received the case will be expedited.

(ix) Request transfers : We put forth some cases of request transfer for his consideration. They are i) Choice transfer on promotion to the grade of SE(C)- Case of Sri S. Prasad, EE(C), Sambalpur to Lucknow/ Ahmedabad/ Chandigarh. Ii) Transfer of Sri T.K Karak, SDE(C), Asansol, WB to Kolakata after completion of 58 years iii) Acceptance of joining letter of Sri Tapan Saha, SDE(C), Kolkata by the CE(C), CTD.

20.10.2014: GS, FS discussed with GM (FP) regarding:

Some Circles have reported that some ill motivated propaganda has been mooted out against AIBSNLEA by some forces to destabilize the unity of the Association. Their main target is JAOs of 2010 and 2013 batch. This force who has earlier branded the accounts cadre as parasites of BSNL and AIBSNLEA  as "Ali Baba and Chalis Chor" have not written even 5 letters on HR issues of Accounts Cadre in last 5 years to GM(FP) or ED (finance) has suddenly become lover of Accounts cadre and spreading all false and mala-fide news against AIBSNLEA. We are sure that our members will not believe in such mal-propaganda, still to refresh our memory we are reiterating below the action taken so far only by AIBSNLEA and the latest position of the issues related to JAOs 2010 and 2013 batches.

(a)  CPC from JAO to AO: We expressed our serious concern against delay in issuing promotion order from JAO to AO. GM (FP) appreciated our concern and mentioned that the CPC is yet to be cleared by CLO; he categorically told that the AO vacancies up to 1.7.2013 were taken into consideration while initiating the CPC   to fill-up about 1600 AOs Posts by the competent authority and accordingly SC/ST quota vacancies are to be filled-up. The SEA cell initiated CPC one year before with the eligible JAOs for promotion on 1.7.2013.  wherein about 1450 JAOs are found eligible for promotion and their CPC was completed one month before but Pers. cell BSNL CO advice to split CPC in two parts i.e. 1135 AOs vacancies may be filled up by JAO-2004 batch without implementation of SC/ST roaster points as per the Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh judgment and remaining 315 AOs Posts by implementing SC/ST roaster of JAO-2006 and 2007 batches may be considered for promotion to avoid contempt of court. But this proposal is not accepted by CLO and he is emphasizing that against all the vacancies up-to 1.7.2013 (about 1600), the SC/ST quota roaster has to be implemented SEA cell (about 240 SC+ 180 ST) posts of AOs. But SEA cell has considered JAOs up-to 2007 batch only for CPC who were eligible for promotion on 1.7.2013 and assuring CLO that the entire SC/ST back log vacancies will be carried forward in the next AO CPC immediately and this is not being agreed by CLO. GM (FP) explained that in case all the 400 SC/ST quota vacancies are considered for promotion now in that case SC/ST JAOs of 2010 batch are to be considered for which JAOs seniority list has to be finalized and ACRs/VCRs are to be collected to conduct further CPC which may take another 4-5 months time. However, he further mentioned that all the queries made by CLO will be clarified today itself and after his final comments the competent authority will take the decision in this regard.

The fact remains that with the consistent efforts of AIBSNLEA, the CPC from JAO to AO was initiated in the year 2009-2010 to fill–up about 500 AO Posts but some JAOs approach the Hon'ble Court and obtained a stay order against this CPC and issue is dragged for the last three years. Finally Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh delivered the judgment in the year 2013 and SEA cell, BSNL CO after taking the legal opinion of BSNL's Senior Advocate initiated the CPC from JAO to AO to fill-up the AO vacancies up-to 1.7.2013 and accordingly the CPC   was initiated. With the efforts of AIBSNLEA the ACRs/VCRs scrutiny work was given to the respective circles to expedite CPC at the earliest and finally succeeded in completing the CPC work but one CPC member “CLO BSNL” did not agree the CPC minutes in view of Hon'ble CAT Judgment for SC/ST roaster implementation and the stalemate is continuing. AIBSNLEA has already discussed the matter with CMD, Director (Finance), ED (Finance), GM(Pers.) GM(FP), and CLO for expediting the CPC but the unanimity has not reached . However, AIBSNLEA is seriously perusing the matter for early promotion orders. Our member should appreciate the constraints as mentioned above. AIBSNLEA is also committed that all the JAOs vacancies should be filled-up by considering JAO 2010 batch also. It is humbly requested to defeat the wasted interests who are trying to create the confusion and false propaganda against AIBSNLEA.

The 5-increments benefit to JAO-2013, JTO (SRD) and PA Cadres were taken up by AIBSNLEA only and on the consistent efforts of AIBSNLEA, Management Committee of BSNL Board has approved 5-Increments however, which is pending for the BSNL Board approval. AIBSNLEA is sincerely trying to get the Board approval on the issues in the next Board meeting. 

(b) CPC from AO to CAO: We requested for early calling of ACRs/VCRs to initiate CPC from AO to CAO to fill-up 230 CAO Posts. GM (FP) assured an early action to initiate the CPC.

(c) CPC from CAO (Adhoc) to CAO (Regular): GM(FP) mentioned CPC work has been completed but some cases are to be explained to GM( SR), the Chairman CPC today itself . He assured promotion order in the next week.

(d) CPC from DFM (Adhoc) to DGM (Regular): GM (FP) mentioned that CPC from DGM (Adhoc) to DGM(Regular-Finance) has been completed. The promotion orders will be issued shortly after the approval of CMD BSNL.

(e) Allowing option to JAOs of 2010 batch who were appointed after 7.5.2010: We requested for early submission of the committee report on this issue. GM (FP) assured to look into the matter for an early decision.       

20.10.2014: GS, FS discussed with GM (Pers) regarding:

(a)    Cancellation / Modification / Retention of DEs Posting orders:- We requested for Cancellation / Modification / Retention of DEs Posting orders on promotion. GM (Pers.) mentioned that some genuine medical ground and in the interest of service cases will be considered on the recommendation of respective CGMs. However, he told that some circles having 80%, 79%, and 70% shortage of DEs are also required to be filled up on promotions but some genuine cases will be considered. However, he mentioned that all the cases are being examined by Addl. GM (Pers.) for consideration.

(b)   Committee on validity of Distance Education of Technical degree acquired before year 2009:- GM(Pers.) directed the concern DM BSNL CO to fix-up the date for the next committee meeting. We also requested to get approval of the BSNL Board on modification of EE (C/E) BSNLMS RRs. He assured an early action in this regard.
