Shridhar Babu (JS South AIGETOA) addressed the huge gathering.  Let me tell you friends, December 7th is most crucial day in BSNL Executives career because this day decides who will represent all executives of BSNL before management, this day decides who will negotiate with management on behalf all executives, this day will decide who can take care of BSNL future / survival in view of hired management at top level,...etc., etc.... So friends time/opportunity to take crucial decisions will not come again and again....... So everybody must vote on 7^th Dec without fail as the vote is the most powerful weapon in democracy...... So now you are going to vote ... Are you friends? To whom you have to vote? You have to vote Number One to make BSNL number one  .... i.e.

you have to vote to AIBSNLEA.... Obviously to the man with vision, man with vast historical knowledge , man with clarity and the man who dedicated himself for the welfare of executives from so many years, the man having transference / honesty , i.e. none other than com. Prahlad Rai.

Friends you please. Think who else available, who else is most suitable than him in contemporary leadership of associations / unions of BSNL.  Let me tell you friends, especially my DR friends & my young brothers and those DRs who are in chota mota associations like SNEA, TSOA, BOSA , DOSA etc......that this is the time to unite all of us under single umbrella or single banner, this is the time to show our unity, this the time to stood strong for our issues with single voice.. bcz. All our issues whether it is 30 % superannuation benefits as per second PRC, Scrapping of MTRR, Scrapping of DGM RRs, CPSU CADER Hierarchy, etc.... All these issues are almost in final stage or at the verge of resolution, so if we unite now we will get more and more appropriate fruits otherwise we may get sore fruits... So friends let us unite under banner of AIGETOA and let vote to AIBSNLEA as per the stand/urge/directions of AIGETOA... Now some DRs may ask question that why we have to unite under banner of AIGETOA why not under others...... Let me clarify you friends... Today every executive association talking about DR issue and Management top priority issues are also DR issues, this only and only because of AIGETOA hard work, this only and only because of vision of GS & CHQ of AIGETOA..... Friends when we first told about word of SAB, nobody in BSNL management know this word, to explain them we given SAB implementation procedure in so many CPSUs, Our CHQ leaders studied implementation procedures especially in NTPC, ONGC, etc.... When we given Power Point Presentation in 2008 regarding CPSU Cadre Hierarchy to management, nobody ready to accept this word, even other executive associations as well.... We work hard and struggled hard and agitated hard for acceptance of this issue by others... Let me tell you some of hot discussions taken place during Khan Committee Meetings for this issue... GM Establishment told why you require functional promotion when you are already getting time bound promotion as per EPP and your salary is getting hiked / your scale is getting enhanced. We told her that Madam we can get money from anywhere like I may get lottery / I may invest and earn more money from somewhere else or our ancestors may give valuable property.. But we can get our designation only from our beloved company where we are working; one cannot purchase his designation from open market and this designation gives social respect in the society... In society usually GM rank persons want to have rista / relation to G.M rank person only.... our sons may not get proper matches for their marriage if we are still in JTO cadre at the time of retirement...... like this so many heated arguments taken place.... Friends, our last DGM recruitment kept under abeyance / suspended... We came to know that DGM Recruitment interviews are going on at Ghaziabad secretly, then our GS rushed to Dir ( HR ) room and asked her why you are conducting these interviews with such a high secrecy, she told even she also don?t have information.. see the irony friends even Dir ( HR ) who is head of HR wing of BSNL doesn?t know.... Our G.S told her, Madam you must give proper weightage to internal candidates / executives  in DGM Recruitment... Why you are conducting interviews without announcing results of internal candidates... Further Madam ITS people are getting weightage for their service in BSNL while selection of Directors, bcz. Of that only almost all directors are belongs to ITS then why discrimination for executives, is there no value for the services rendered by executives in BSNL ... These DGM RRs are framed against BSNL Executives, its just conspiracy as those who are satisfying scale criteria unable to satisfy age or education conditions, those who have age and qualification unable to meet Scale condition..... like this so many heated arguments taken place and finally this DGM recruitment process kept under abeyance... Prahlad Rai Sir also there on that day along with our GS..... Like this AIGETOA proved in so many instances that this only and only the platform for DRs and AIGETOA leaders ready to sacrifice and ready to go upto any level to safe guard rights of DRs.... Also friends AIGETOA is not only for directly recruited JTOs/JAOs but also for all the employees of BSNL recruited employees, hence I am requesting from this front to those JTOs who promoted from BSNL recruited TTAs, please come forward  and join hands with AIGETOA and vote for AIBSNLEA..... AIGETOA suffered / struggled a lot when management tried to recruit MTs first time, We Gheraved and stalled Corporate Office in total, we broke so many flower pots in Corporate Office at that time and even we undergone lotty charge as well my dear friends, then only MT recruitment stopped at that time.....

Like this there are so many stories but I due to time constraint I don?t want to tell you more..... Now friends I explained clearly what is the importance of 7^th Dec and why all DRs must unite under single banner as AIGETOA.... let me tell you why each and every DRs of BSNL must vote to AIBSNLEA with out fail..... Friends we, AIGETOA agitated so strongly so energetically, we agitated 18 days at Jantaramantar, A cabinet minister Mr. Balaram Naik, Minister of Social welfare and justice UPA-2 government came to our agitation venue at Jantarmantar and addressed the gathering, usually Cabinet Ministers don?t not visit Janatamanatar as it is known as place for agitations and place for oppositions, still we brought,  I sat entire one week at Delhi to finalize his schedule , even we tried to bring Killi Kruparani the then state minister of Communications Government of India but she denied to come to venue as she is directly dealing DOT / BSNL but she given meeting for our CHQ leader for almost two hours and she also involved taken active role and try to resolve our issue... later we did one week full hunger strike before Corporate Office and then we did amarana nirahara diskha ( Indefinite Hunger Strike ) , even Mr. Ambika Paul , CPSU Chairman nominated by Government of India also involved and he arranged direct meeting in which our GS, CMD, DOT Secretary and he himself participated...... We never left a single stone unturned for resolution of DR issues ... still we unable to reach our goal even though our issues got highlighted...... Friends let me tell you even a presence  of Cabinet Minister, State Minister for Communication, Government of India , Government Nominated Chairman For CPSUs were not yielded me fruits , this much long/strong/dedicated agitation path not yielded me fruits....

But presence or involvement of a Sri Prahlad Rai Sir, MOU with AIBSNLEA yielded us fruits and that?s the reason why we saw presidential order on SAB, Finalisation of standard pay scales, Management agreed to implement CPSU Cadre Hierarchy, Management agreed to scrap DGM RRs and Management agreed to relook into MTRRs as per the stand of winning executive association, etc... That?s why we are telling to vote for AIBSNLEA, that?s why we are telling to vote , Obviously to the man with vision, man with vast historical knowledge , man with clarity and the man who dedicated himself for the welfare of executives from so many years, the man having transference / honesty , the man who can able to conduct effective talks with management , i.e. none other than Mr. Prahlad Rai. Friends you plz. think who else available, who else is most suitable than him in contemporary leadership of associations / unions of BSNL.

Dear Friends, beware of Chameleon natured associations who changed their colors again and again, who changes their stand according to the results / situation..... Now all are talking about DR issues after notification of referendum... why , why because for the votes of DRs..... I am straight away asking these associations, Yaar what is the guaranty that you will not change your stand after referendum, after taking votes from DRs..... You people created so many stumbling blocks on the way of AIGETOA  & AIBSNLEA in resolving DR issues.... You people demanded early conduction MT Internal exam by saying their age limit is crossing... boss are we fools , don?t we know if MT internal recruitment happens , MT external has to happen as both the recruitments are defined in same MTRR... further I completed my B.Tech from reputed institute , I cleared GRE& Toffle , I got campus interview in my final year still I don?t have confidence to clear internal MT exam due to its vast syllabus but how the above people who demanded internal MT exam early have confidence in clearing it, no even they don?t have, they just sung the song of Management, they tried to advocate / project wish/desire of Management...... You people told there is no possibility of CPSU Cadre Hierarchy implementation above Sr. S.D.E level, why your stand changed now.....? You people demanded to keep young executive/ my younger brother for 10 years in E3, otherwise your hearts will burn like anything... why your stand changed now.....? You people told if DRs get full 30% superannuation benefits then DRs will get more pension than absorbed executives then why your stand changed now...?  There are so many stories like this........

Friends Finally I can tell 100 reasons why you must vote to AIBSNLEA like....

1. If you want full 30% SAB , you vote for AIBSNLEA..

2. If You want No MT recruitment in BSNL, vote for AIBSNLEA..

3. If You want No DGM recruitment in BSNL, vote for AIBSNLEA..

4. If You want Your career progression upto the level of Director / CMD, vote for AIBSNLEA.

5. If You want sound / proper implementation of 3^rd PRC , vote for AIBSNLEA..

6. If you want vibrant future for BSNL, vote for AIBSNLEA..

7. If You want BSNL executives future for coming 3 years in safer hands, vote for AIBSNLEA.

 So on , so on.....  

You tell me a single reason why you can vote to other associations, no you can?t....  

Friends , there is no need for us to campaign for just winning this referendum, anyhow AIBSNLEA & AIGETOA combination will easily cross 50%.... but we want to win with above 75% votes.... So that write up on AIBSNLEA/AIGETOA website by Prahlad Rai Sir / Ravishil Sir must be consider as notice by management... as soon as they posted on our websites, GM ( SR ) must call them....

Com.  Prahlad Rai, ( GS AIBSNLEA) gave the background behind the formation of AIBSNLEA in May 2004. He mentioned that prior to the formation of BSNL, there existed may associations based on cadre such as Accounts, Electrical, Civil, Architecture, PA/PS, ADOL, Telecom Factory etc. In the historic Calcutta convention, all of the executive cadres merged to form AIBSNLEA. Since then, they have been in the forefront in fighting injustice to all constituent cadres. He also gave us the recent updates on our issues which are in the forefront due to the last 2 agitation programmes. He gave detailed information in respect of carrier progression of executives, our four front demands are the pay (E2 to E7 scale, 30% super annulation benefits, CPSU hierarchy will be resolved shortly as per agreement/decisions by the administrations. He mentioned about misleading the DR?s by the sister executive association. He appealed all DR?s to go through our association manifesto which was published in AIBSNLEA web site and convey to your colleges and appeal them to vote for AIBSNLEA  and he mentioned the current status of DPC?s of various cadres and court cases which  were in progress. Promotions of PPS, ADOL, JTO(Civil) to SDE (Civil). The DPC?s were completed or DGM (Telecom), DGM (Finance), with a consistent pursuance of AIBSNLEA yielded the results..

At present we are thriving hard to get 3 Ps - PAY, PROMOTION AND PENSION for our younger brothers. He also assured that our joint effort will be successful in achieving 1st position in the forthcoming Membership verification of the Executives. He further mentioned that with the efforts of AIBSNLEA and AIGETOA the replacement of E-1A by  E-2 & E-2A by E-3 and subsequent scales up gradation from E-3 to E-4, E-4 to E-5, E-5 to E-6 and E-6 to E-7 proposal was approved by BSNL MC and now being cleared by DoT/DPE shortly. The Khan Committee report on CPSU cadre hierarchy is also now under active consideration by the BSNL Management, 3% superannuation contribution from BSNL towards 30% superannuation benefit has been approved by BSNL Board/DoT and order has been issued. AIBSNLEA is also equally concern to the viability of BSNL and that is why during the agitation programmes of Forum of BSNL Unions/Associations, AIBSNLEA is always at fore front. As for as 3rd PRC is considered we pleaded before the Committee that BSNL is now earning Operational Profit three consecutive Financial years and this year the profit is around 3800 Crores and hence BSNL being Schedule One Company the Executives should be granted fitment equal to Indian Oil Corporation.  The Committee appreciated our concern taking into consideration the Social obligation of BSNL in providing connectivity to the far flung, remote, in accessible areas and extremist areas and at times of Natural Calamities. He requested all the executives to provide best and reliable services to customers to retain them. He also appealed to vote and support AIBSNLEA during membership verification to save BSNL and its executives of all the disciplines.

He appreciated AIBSNLEA KTK Circle, memberships are the highest memberships in our  AIBSNLEA. He expressed his confidence about KTK circle will lead maximum votes in coming referendum. He thanked all members who gathered more in number and organisers AIBSNLEA of KTK Circle

Com. Shivakumar (President CHQ AIBSNLEA) spoke at length on the history of associations in the earst while DOT set-up. He referred to the 1640 struggle in which the current GS of AIBSNLEA was the CS of Rajasthan. On the contrary is noted that SNEA leaders were not present at that time. Some of the leaders are involved in court cases that are to the detriment of the cadre such as Rule 206. This shows the dual stand of SNEA. Even now the stand on SNEA on MT and CPSU needs to be questioned. On the matter of MT, SNEA claims to be supporting internal MT only which is a fallacy. On CPSU hierarchy, they are recommending 10 years in E3 which is unwarranted. He concluded with slogans in support of United Forum. 

Com. Shashidhar Hiremath (CS KTK Circle AIBSNLEA) gave slogans and appealed all members to vote for AIBSNLEA and elect as a number 1 majority executive association

Com. Doddamani (President AIBSNLEA HUBLLI SSA) presented the vote of thanks. The program was concluded with national anthem.

He referred to the 1640 struggle in which the current GS of AIBSNLEA was the CS of Rajasthan. On the contrary is noted that SNEA leaders were not present at that time. Some of the leaders are involved in court cases that are to the detriment of the cadre such as Rule 206. This shows the dual stand of SNEA. Even now the stand on SNEA on MT and CPSU needs to be questioned. On the matter of MT, SNEA claims to be supporting internal MT only which is a fallacy. On CPSU hierarchy, they are recommending 10 years in E3 which is unwarranted. He concluded with slogans in support of United Forum. 

Com. Shri Laxman (President CHQ AIGETOA), gave stirring speech on the major issues faced by DRs - PPP - Pay, Promotion and Pension. He gave a practical example of how DRs entered BSNL believing that it is a Government of India company that will take care of executives in terms of social security and career prospects. It is after the passage of 15 years that many are realising the poor HR policies of BSNL. The pay-scales are compromised, some have not got even a single promotion and we do not have any pension to fall back on. He too concluded with slogans in support of the United Forum and vote for AIBSNLEA in particular.

Com.  Prahlad Rai, (GS AIBSNLEA) gave the background behind the formation of AIBSNLEA in May 2004. He mentioned that prior to the formation of BSNL, there existed may associations based on cadre such as Accounts, Electrical, Civil, Architecture, PA/PS, ADOL, Telecom Factory etc. In the historic Calcutta convention, all of the executive cadres merged to form AIBSNLEA. Since then, they have been in the forefront in fighting injustice to all constituent cadres. He also gave us the recent updates on our issues which are in the forefront due to the last 2 agitation programmes. He gave detailed information in respect of carrier progression of executives, our four front demands are the pay (E2 to E7 scale, 30% super annulation benefits, CPSU hierarchy will be resolved shortly as per agreement/decisions by the administrations. He mentioned about misleading the DR?s by the sister executive association. He appealed all DR?s to go through our association manifesto which was published in AIBSNLEA web site and convey to your colleges and appeal them to vote for AIBSNLEA  and he mentioned the current status of DPC?s of various cadres and court cases which  were in progress. Promotions of PPS, ADOL, JTO (Civil) to SDE (Civil). The DPC?s were completed or DGM (Telecom), DGM (Finance), with a consistent pursuance of AIBSNLEA yielded the results. He appreciated AIBSNLEA KTK Circle; memberships are the highest memberships in our AIBSNLEA. He expressed his confidence about KTK circle will lead maximum votes in coming referendum. He thanked all members who gathered more in number and organisers AIBSNLEA of KTK Circle.

Presidential Address was delivered by Shri Ullas Gourav. He summed up the points and thanked the guests for coming and addressing us. 

Vote of thanks was followed by the inspiring song - "Hum honge kamyab".

The Joint Special GB of AIBSNLEA & AIGETOA on First Membership Verification of Executives was held at Madurai in a grand manner in front of Level IV Exchange, Tallakulam, Madurai on 21-10-2016 in the Open place.

The meeting was jointly presided over by Com. Bangaru Krishnasamy CP, AIBSNLEA, TN CIRCLE and Victor Samson CP, AIGETOA, TN CIRCLE.  Com. N. Srinivasan DS, AIBSNLEA delivered the welcome address. 

Com N. Bangaru Krishnasamy in his presidential address, narrated the formation of AIBSNLEA with amalgamation of 10 Associations of Engineering/Accounts/Civil/Electrical/Architect/PS&PA/OL and TF and explained about the achievements and role played by AIBSNLEA in All India and   TN circle.

The inaugural speech was delivered by Com. Senthil Kumaralingam DE (indoor), and District Secretary, AIBSNLEA ERODE.  He explained in detail how the so called saviours of Engineering Cadres particularly the basic entry level cadre of JTO which is considered to be the backbone of DOT and BSNL was let down by these self styled leaders for their own selfish motives. Leaders who could not come successful in the Examination for the promotion to the cadre of SDE stalled the Examination and had not allowed the young and talented JTOs to get promoted to the cadre of SDE through Qualifying and Competitive Examination.  Now they are shedding crocodile tears for the promotive stream of JTOs and DR. JTOs.  It is mockery of the leadership of the Association.  They abrogated Rule 206 and thereby illegally claimed seniority from the vacancy year which led to so many Court Cases and Finally it is AIBSNLEA, WHICH CAME TO RESCUE by establishing that Rule 206 only could prevail and compelled the management to conduct DPC for the promotion to the Cadre of DGM Engineering on Adhoc basis since there is no stay order for conducting DPC.  But the so called saviours of Engineering Cadres and their own top level leader occupying the post CHQ President moved a contempt petition against CMD BSNL to stop the promotion order of DE to DGM (E).  Honourable Supreme court dismissed their petition and ridiculed their arguments and observed that already all your pleadings before the Justice Ramamoorthy committee was heard and rejected your arguments  and held Rule.206 only prevail and however you are arguing for the hefty fees you received.  Even those, who have become JTOs during 1995 till waiting for their First Regular Promotion to the SDE grade.  This is their achievement.  If these people are voted to power they will ruin the future of the young JTOs further.  Hence think thrice before voting and exercise your franchise in favour of AIBSNLEA which will safeguard the future of youngsters and seniors together.  For financially viable BSNL also you should vote for AIBSNLEA & AIGETOA COMBINATION WHICH REPRESENTS young and old.

Com. VKP Ex. Advisor CHQ in his thundering speech explained in detail the importance of membership verification.  He advised executives that to whom you have to vote is to be judged by their past performance in Trade Union arena and their contribution towards the welfare of Executives and for financial viability of BSNL. Exercising your franchise is not to be used to satisfy your higher-ups, friendship and on personal considerations.  Instead it should be used to safeguard the interest of your career, Job security, Social security (Pension and Retirement benefits including for the Direct Recruits) and financial upliftment and in particular who works untiringly for the financial viability of BSNL. He narrated in detail how 10 DOT recognized Gr 'B' Officers Associations merged and AIBSNLEA was formed sacrificing their separate identity.  Instead of 10 General Secretaries, now only one GS is taking care of the welfare of all disciplines such as Engineering, Accounts and Finance, Civil, Electrical, Architect, PA/PS, Language Officers, Central Secretariat Staff and Factory Staff.  As per DPE guidelines Cadre wise/ Discipline wise Associations are not allowed in PSU set up.  Since the strength of Engineering cadre is more in order to protect the interest of  minority Cadres Constitutional Amendments were made in which one AGS post is earmarked for Engineering, one for Accounts, one for Civil/Electrical/ Architect/Telecom Factory staff and one for General disciplines such as PA/PS, CSS, and Language Officers.  Now in Mysore All India Conference, one AGS is post is earmarked for DR. Recruit JTOs/JAOs.  Thus it is ensured the representation of all disciplines in the Association.

Our GS Com. Prahlad Roy is a directly recruited JTO and occupied the position as the Circle Secretary of JETA for 13 years, 13 years as Circle Secretary of TESA representing SDEs and DEs and 10 years as the General Secretary of AIBSNLEA representing all disciplines.  He has 36 years of rich Trade Union Experience.   Hence we were able to achieve so many of our demands which will be narrated by GS in his eloquent speech.

He completed his speech with this appeal.

"My dear Comrades, when you  enter to the Election Booth to cast  your Vote the room will not be so bright but when you see the ballot paper in the number one position the name of  All India BSNL Executives' Association name  will be glittering.  Don't go below and try to see anything else.  Vote for AIBSNLEA in the number one serial.  If you vote to AIBSNLEA and come out of the Polling Booth your future will be bright and secure in the hands of AIBSNLEA."

Com. Prahlad Rai, GS AIBSNLEA in his Special address mentioned that in true Sense AIBSNLEA represent all the disciplines of BSNL. With the untiring efforts of AIBSNLEA many achievements have been made i.e. implementation of EPP, Grant of perks to executives, transparent transfer policy in BSNL, BSNLMSRR notification. 2nd PRC implementation with 30% fitment benefit, finalization of AAO pay scale, filling up of the vacant Group ?B?, STS and JAG level posts, regularization of officiating JTOs, PPS Posts creation in field units, 78.2% IDA pay fixation to BSNL serving and retired employees and withdrawal of 60:40 provision of BSNL pension etc. GS, AIBSNLEA in his detailed deliberation explained about all the achievements of AIBSNLEA and AIGETOA got through united struggle. He also appraised the latest position of different cadre demands including AD (OL), PA/PS , Officiating JTO,SDE(C) to EE(C), JTO(T) to SDE , AO to CAO , SDE to DE , DE to DGM etc.,

 At present we are thriving hard to get 3 Ps - PAY, PROMOTION AND PENSION for our younger brothers. He also assured that our joint effort will be successful in achieving 1st position in the forthcoming Membership verification of the Executives. He further mentioned that with the efforts of AIBSNLEA and AIGETOA the replacement of E-1A by  E-2 & E-2A by E-3 and subsequent scales up gradation from E-3 to E-4, E-4 to E-5, E-5 to E-6 and E-6 to E-7 proposal was approved by BSNL MC and now being cleared by DoT/DPE shortly. The Khan Committee report on CPSU cadre hierarchy is also now under active consideration by the BSNL Management, 3% superannuation contribution from BSNL towards 30% superannuation benefit has been approved by BSNL Board/DoT and order has been issued. AIBSNLEA is also equally concern to the viability of BSNL and that is why during the agitation programmes of Forum of BSNL Unions/Associations, AIBSNLEA is always at fore front. As for as 3rd PRC is considered we pleaded before the Committee that BSNL is now earning Operational Profit three consecutive Financial years and this year the profit is around 3800 Crores and hence BSNL being Schedule One Company the Executives should be granted fitment equal to Indian Oil Corporation.  The Committee appreciated our concern taking into consideration the Social obligation of BSNL in providing connectivity to the far flung, remote, in accessible areas and extremist areas and at times of Natural Calamities. He requested all the executives to provide best and reliable services to customers to retain them. He also appealed to vote and support AIBSNLEA during membership verification to save BSNL and its executives of all the disciplines.

GS, AIBSNLEA extended sincere gratitude and thanks to GS AIGETOA, President AIGETOA and the Members of AIGETOA for extending their unqualified support  to AIBSNLEA in the ensuing Membership Verification., to make it Say No 1 Executives Association. He also reassured them, to get their issues resolved on top priority. Com Laxman Banoth CHQ President/AIGETOA in his Special address appreciated Com. Prahlad Rai GS/AIBSNLEA as dynamic leader in BSNL and briefed about MOU between AIGETOA & AIBSNLEA and assured to address all the HR issues of the BSNL Direct recruit officers. He explained about the Joint Struggle of United Forum of AIBSNLEA & AIGETOA and current status of Superannuation benefits / MTRR / Cadre Hierarchy / LDCE / EPP / pay scales / Rule-8 transfers. He Appealed to all Direct recruit officers to come under one umbrella to meet the challenges and requested all the Executives to vote to AIBSNLEA who address and lead BSNL executives for betterment.

Com S. Sivakumar President/CHQ & CS/AIBSNLEA/TN Circle briefed the achievements of AIBSNLEA in the cadre of Engineering /Accounts/Civil/Electrical/PS/OL etc. and appealed to all executives to strengthen AIBSNLEA and make it number one in referendum.  He ridiculed the Manifesto of sister Association for the wrong information they furnished as their achievement that promotion to the cadre of DGM Engineering to the tune of 500 people was their achievement.  In fact 648 people got promoted from DE to DGM Engineering.  Their own CHQ President moved Contempt Petition against CMD BSNL to stop DE to DGM Promotion.  Supreme Court dismissed his appeal.  Hence it is AIBSNLEA which stood as a rock in this case and pleaded that as per Rule 206 promotion orders are to be issued and finally came out successful.  Regarding the historic struggle for the grant of 1640 scale to JTOs they claimed that they are the only sole proprietor for the success of the struggle.  They are trying to conceal the fact at the time of the struggle Com. Prahlad Rai was the Circle Secretary of Rajasthan Circle and Com. B. Seenivasalu Reddy the CS of AIBSNLEA at present had been the Circle Secretary of JETA in Andhra Pradesh.  Like wise so many of our Comrades led the struggle under the leader of Com. Bagchi, a Veteran Leader of our Time had been the General Secretary of JETA in New Delhi.

Hence the real face of our sister Association is unveiled before the Executives and they could no more cheat them.  Victory is ours.  Exodus started.  Executives realised that our Sister Association is sinking ship.  The wind is AIBSNLEA's favour.  We are going to win this Memorandum with the thumbing Majority with the help of our younger friends in AIGETOA.  Nobody can stop the victory of AIBSNLEA in the ensuing Membership Verification to elect a majority Executive Association.

Com Laxman Banoth CHQ President/AIGETOA in his Special address appreciated Com. Prahlad Rai Garu GS/AIBSNLEA as dynamic leader in BSNL and briefed about MOU between AIGETOA & AIBSNLEA and assured to address all the HR issues of the BSNL Direct recruit officers. He explained about the Joint Struggle of United Forum of AIBSNLEA & AIGETOA and current status of Superannuation benefits / MTRR / Cadre Hierarchy / LDCE / EPP / pay scales / Rule-8 transfers.  He criticized the sister Association which has no vision clarity in vital issues and always confusing the members.  They are singing the song of the management in all the issues.  If they voted to power they will kill the issues since they are dancing to the tune of the BSNL management. He Appealed to all Direct recruit officers to come under one umbrella to meet the challenges and requested all the Executives to vote for AIBSNLEA which address and lead BSNL executives for betterment.

Com M. Sridharbabu JS(South)/AIGETOA explained BSNL Direct recruit issues, Superannuation benefits, Promotion, MTRR issues, unity of direct recruits under one umbrella, vision of AIGETOA & AIBSNLEA and appeal  to all young executives to come forward for unity to redress the issues, also vote and support AIBSNLEA in the ensuing Membership Verification.

Com  R. Guruprasad in his speech narrated that it is only AIBSNLEA which is always giving valuable suggestions for the financial viability of BSNL with two instances which became popular and yielded the desired results.  In March, 2010, the CHQ Office bearers meet of AIBSNLEA suggested to hold Customer Delight Month.  It was brought to the notice of Forum of BSNL Unions and Associations and the same was endorsed by the Forum.  CMD BSNL appreciated our idea and finally Customer delight Month was launched during May, 2010 extended to the whole of the year.

Further based on the Annual Report of DOT it is noticed that for the provision of Rural Subsidy budgetary provision was made by DOT but the amount was not released for more than six years.  The issue was taken up by Tamilnadu Circle Association and the CHQ effectively intervened and finally now we are getting refund and for the Current year also we got 1250 Crores from DOT.  For Income Tax refund also Tamilnadu Circle Association played a vital role by bringing the matter to CHQ AIBSNLEA and now we were able to get refund which improved the financial position of BSNL. Electing AIBSNLEA and Com. Prahlad Rai will ensure the Financial viability of BSNL and the future of BSNL executives also. 

Com. A.R.E. Roy District President, AIBSNLEA delivered vote of thanks.  The Climate was very pleasant.  Though there was heavy rain in and around the place of meeting there was no rain except drizzling for some minutes in the open meeting space.  Nature showered its mercy which made it a pleasant meeting and a memorable one.
