Our continuous interaction with Ministry of Telecom, Dept of Telecommunication, BSNL Board of Directors and other related departments through letter and personal meetings helped in building a consensus that a large section of employees are supporting the cause in the larger interest of the BSNL. We also thanks our fellow colleagues and public for supporting the cause on Social Media, specially generating top trends on multi occasions with #IndianeedBSNL, #SwitchtoBSNL, #BSNL4G, #BSN_Revival and others.

Let's We All Come Together To Build A New BSNL

Salient Points approved by cabinet for BSNL-MTNL Revival:

1. Administrative allotment of spectrum for 4G services to BSNL and MTNL so as to enable these PSUs to provide broadband and other data services. The said Spectrum will be funded by the Government of India by capital infusion in these PSUs at a value of Rs 20,140 Cr in addition; the GST amount of Rs 3,674 Cr to this spectrum value will also be borne by the Government of India through Budgetary resources. By using this spectrum allotment, BSNL and MTNL will be able to deliver 4G services, compete in the market and provide high speed data using their vast network including in rural areas.

2. BSNL and MTNL will also raise long-term bonds of Rs 15,000 Cr for which sovereign guarantee will be provided by the Government of India (GoI). With the said resources, BSNL and MTNL will restructure their existing debt and also partly meet CAPEX, OPEX and other requirements.

3. BSNL and MTNL will also offer Voluntary Retirement to their employees, aged 50 years and above through attractive Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS), the cost of which will be borne by the Government of India through budgetary support. The ex-gratia component of VRS will require Rs. 17,169 Cr in addition; GoI will be meeting the cost towards Pension, Gratuity and Commutation. Details of the scheme will be finalized by BSNL/MTNL.

4. BSNL and MTNL will monetize their assets so as to raise resources for retiring debt, servicing of bonds, network up gradation, expansion and meeting the operational fund requirements.

5. In-principle merger of BSNL and MTNL.

Congratulations to all BRs !!! for creation of Separate EPF Cell

Dear All AIGETOAians / All BRs of Gujarat Circle !!!

It gives me an immense pleasure in announcing that finally, A dedicated Centralized EPF Cell has been formed under DGM(CA)àCAO(Taxation), Circle Office for executing EPF related work/ activities of members of all SSAs of Gujarat Circle. Now there shall not be any activity at SSA/BA level with regard to EPF.

Friends, AIGETOA Gujarat was continuously pursuing for centralized EPF cell since last one year. We had written letters and conducted various meetings with previous PGM Fin, Smt Marina George as well as with current PGM Fin Shri M N Punde sir.

We have given full justification for centralization of all EPF activities at one place instead of carrying them at SSA level to avoid any discrepancy, mismatch in implementation of EPF related guidelines and for smooth conduction of EPF processes like members’ addition, transfer, removal, advance, claim settlement and many other things.

CS AIG Gujarat along with other Finance wing authorities also met Regional EPF Commissioner, Ahmedabad with regard to implementation of Centralized EPF Cell for entire Gujarat Circle.

After continuous persuasion with Circle Finance wing & EPF authority, finally it has been decided to implement the same and a letter in this regard is issued implementing a centralized EPF cell at circle office along with posting of two additional JAOs dedicatedly for doing the EPF related work only.

Friends, only AIGETOA was pursuing this issue vigorously and finally got succeeded in implementing the same.

On behalf AGETOA and all the BRs of Gujarat circle, We sincerely extend our gratitude to Shri M N Punde Sir, PGM Fin, Shri B J Parmar Sir, DGM Fin, Shri Payawala Sir, CAO (F), Special thanks to Shri Rajesh Sonara, AO (Cash) for all their kind support and cooperation in implementing this long pending demand of AIGETOA Gujarat.

From Association side, I would like to thank our CP Shri Mayur Parmar, CFS Shri Anurag Parmar and other AIG team Memebrs..

Meeting with EPFO Commissioner

Friends … !!!

In reference to CS AIGETOA Guj’s letter to PGM Finance regarding various issues including EPF centralization, Higher Pension etc, PGM Finance had asked his team to meet EPF Commissioner to discuss and find out method to implement above.

Accordingly, CAO Finance, AO Fin, JAO EPF and CS AIGETOA met EPF Commissioner on 29.07.2019 in the afternoon. EPFO Commissioner gave a patient hearing to our issues. The meeting lasted almost one hour with very positive response.

1.         Regarding EPF Centralization….

We told that right now, EPF is paid through four different establishments in BSNL Gujarat viz Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Surat and Jamnagar which has approx 1522, 182, 424, 83 members respectively. We conveyed that we want to pay the EPF centrally through Ahmedabad office so as to implement EPF uniformly for all the members and to avoid any discrepancies.

EPFO Commissioner agreed for centralization EPF activities for entire BSNL Gujarat and he also advised on how to proceed further to migrate all members to single establishment smoothly and hassle free.

Now, we will pursue with Circle Finance team to implement it immediately. All the EPF members will be shifted to Ahmedabad Establishment first and then their balances shall be transferred to this new account.

2.         Regarding Higher pension

We told that many of our members are willing to exercise higher pension option and they want to immediately shift on that.

On this, EPFO Commissioner said that the option for higher pension was initially for those who retired prior to 30.09.2014 except one case in which Kerala high court allowed for higher pension despite he was retired after 30.09.2014 and that was the reason for demand of higher pension by all from across the country. The case was reached to Supreme Court and EPFO lost that case. However, one review petition filed by EPFO is still pending in SC and everything depends on it. So right now they can’t say anything on higher pension. It was advised to wait till the outcome of the review petition.

AIGETOA CHQ legal team in working on this issue. Let us hope for positive outcome in this regard.

3.         Regarding Wrong date of Joining in EPF shown in UAN portal

We also highlighted that in UAN portal, many members have found that their Date of joining in EPF is shown wrong. Proper service history is also not maintained in the portal for many members. For some members, date of joining in EPF is shown as 1-June-2011 or 1-Sep-2013 while they have joined the service in 2001 or 2002 or 2004.

It was also noticed that those who have not been transferred to other places/SSA/establishment code, have correct date of joining being shown in UAN, but those who are transferred from one SSA to other or from one Establishment to other in same SSA have this issue.

It was advised that we have to submit joint declaration form for changing this date of joining and we also have to provide complete history of our services so that the whole service history can be uploaded on UAN portal for reckoning the entire service which could be useful while claiming any advance.

Guj AIG will pursue for all three issues till its resolution.

BSNL CO CALLS TO PRESENT ASSOCIATION'S POINT TO EXAMINE THE AMBIGUITY IN FOOTNOTE-2

BSNL CO calls to present Association's point examine the ambiguity in footnote-2 :

BSNL CO calls AIGETOA to present association's point of concern before the committee constituted to examine the ambiguity in footnote-2 below schedule 1A of MS RR 2009 as per direction of Hon'ble High Court of Madras vide order dated 02-11-2017 in WP no 9300/2011 filed by AIGETOA and others.

Brief update on the JTO RR-14 case filed at Ernakulam :

It is a well known fact that JTO RR -14 was made with an intention to degrade the JTO cadre with regard to Pay & Status. AIGETOA was the only association which opposed this degradation. While AIGETOA wanted to incorporate E2 for JTOs, all others agreed for E1 and thus officially JTOs scale was degraded to E1A to E1.

Soon after, AIGETOA filed a legal suit at Hon'ble CAT Ernakulam and started fight for pay and status protection of JTO Cadre through legal means also.

We were able to get stay from Hon'ble Ernakulam CAT on Clasue -10 of JTO RR Which states retrospective implementation of Pay & Status of already recruited JTOs can't be made effective.

Thereafter, we filed another rejoinder in the same case for getting the direction of the court for upgrading E-2 Scale for JTOs in JTO RR 2014 also as BSNL has approved E-2 scales for JTO/JAO/Equivalent.

Presently, reply of BSNL is awaited on our rejoinder to get the E2 scale which will be beneficial for entire JTO batches (especially all JTO batches from 2007 onwards including latest LICE JTOs of 2013,14 and DR JTO 2017).

We will continue to fight for the status of the Cadre and ensure that E2 scales becomes a reality for the JTO/JAO/Equivalent.

The cases filed at Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh and Hon'ble Ernakulam CAT are very crucial for obtaining E2 Scale for all JTOs.

The cases may take some time but we are very sure that our contention for E2 Scale for JTO/JAO/Equivalent Cadre and E3 for SDE/AO/Equivalent Cadre has merit and we will come up with flying colours.

We seek the support of all in this endeavour.

BATTLE FOR PENDING JUSTIFIED SAB BENEFITS FOR BSNL RECRUITS

Legal Battle for Pending justified SAB Benefits for BSNL Recruits

AIGETOA Members filed a legal suit requesting for the long pending SAB benefits for BSNL recruits at Honourable CAT, Ernakulam.

The grievances are related to the denial of superannuation benefits in BSNL in line with the directions of DPE/DoT - Govt of India i.e. 30 Percent SAB from date of joining and creation of Post Retirement Medical Benefit Fund as defined contribution

The case came up for hearing today and the respondents have been directed to file their reply.

Our association was continuously pointing that, in CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972 Rule 37A - Sub Rule (23) clearly states that BSNL shall devise it own pension scheme and make arrangements for funding and disbursing the pensionary benefits for its directly recruited employees. This was denied till 5/5/2016 and then only a part is allowed (3%) further a mere increase to (2%) from 1/4/2017, due to various organisational efforts from this association, in tandem with others. It is worth mentioning here that the BSNL recruited employees, who are recruited as Public Sector employees, has administrative and service guidelines different from that of DoT absorbees.

The second PRC streamlined the Super annuation Benefits as defined contribution to 30% of Basic + DA and salary package implementation in a stage wise manner where retiral benefits stand above Perks & allowance realisation. In BSNL the defined Contribution towards SAB was confined to 16.8% - i.e.12% towards EPF and 4.8% towards gratuity initially and has been enhanced now with 5% as Pension scheme called Superannuation Fund - which should be effectively from date of joining. Astonishingly, rest 8.2% is still in darkness. The matter was, therefore, being taken up continuously by AIGETOA alone from the Day-1 and collectively further, still we have miles to go to get the things in true spirit. In between, many of BR brotheren met untimely death, without the rightful due realisation which is very much painful to each one of us.

We are sure that the legal battle along with organisational support from each of BSNL recruits and our well wishers will lead us to the accomplishment of genuine rights which has been delayed badly.

The PRMB envisaged in line with SAB, should be a defined contribution scheme - which BSNL is yet to create.The defined contribution scheme is the way to ensure the delinking from company status/health wrt to employee retiral life.

The fight is to provide for 30% of the basic pay + Dearness Allowance towards the superannuation benefits head viz EPF, Gratuity, PRMB and Pension scheme as defined contribution with effect from the date of joining of the respective for BSNL recruits; We Appeal all BSNL recruits to be a part of this unified battle in the respective fronts.

UPDATE ON E2-E3 COURT CASE

Dear Friends, AIGETOA is in receipt of the Affidavit filed by Secretary DoT in Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh wherein it has been stated that E1A scale was not for BSNL recruited Executives and they should have been given E1 scale while the PO issued by DoT in the year 2003 states that the replacement scale of Rs. 6500/- for BSNL recruited JTOs will be as per the presidential orders dated 28.07.2003.

We shall be submitting our reply to the affidavit wherein we shall be presenting the facts before honorable court to counter the arguments put forward by DoT. We would like to clarify that E2 pay scales for the JTO Cadre and E3 Pay Scale for SDE cadre is our right and AIGETOA is fully determined to take this issue to its logical conclusion and we are not going to rest till we achieve our rightful due for the Whole BSNL Recruited Cadre. We have already taken up the matter of making E2 Scale for the JTO in JTO RR case filed by AIGETOA which if won is going to pave the way for introduction of E2 Scale in JTO RRs.

From the Reply of DoT, it is clearly evident that path is very tough and at this juncture, the need is to remain united and extend cooperation to each other if we are really interested in resolving the long pending HR issues of BSNL recruits, we will have to move united and speak in a single voice.

JOINT FORUM MEETING WITH SHRI ANUPAM SHRIVASTAVA, CMD, BSNL

Joint Forum meeting with Shri Anupam Shrivastava, CMD, BSNL on 19.06.2017:

JF leaders met the CMD and held discussions on the following issues. In the beginning itself, CMD informed about the meeting of CMD and other BSNL Board members with the Hon Minister on 16.06.2017 on 3rd PRC implementation. CMD informed that BSNL Board requested Hon Minister for implementation of 3rd PRC without linking with the affordability clause, considering the strategic importance of BSNL in telecom sector. Hon Minister responded very positively and assured to consider the request of the Board. On other issues, JF explained the discussions held in the CS and CHQ Office bearers meeting on 17th and 18th and the apprehensions of the JF on various issues, discussions continued:

a) Ongoing agitation on E2, E3 scales : CMD informed that this issue once again raised with the Hon Minister in the same meeting. Entire Board once again requested Hon Minister to approve the proposal of E2 and E3. Secretary, DoT given a meeting to BSNL Management to discuss this issue and 3rd PRC on 22.06.2017. DIR(HR) will be meeting the Secretary.

b) Increasing the quantum of contribution towards Superannuation fund : JF demanded that the increase in contribution should be considered immediately as assured recently. CMD responded positively and informed that the demand will be considered and already instructed to process the proposal.

c) Progress in other issues : Very good progress is seen in other issues and management initiated actions to resolve the issues. Same initiative is to be continued for another 2 to 3 months so that the issues can be resolved by that time. JF expressed its concern that management may not continue with the same momentum after some time and demanded that review in the progress of the issue has to be done atleast on fortnightly basis. CMD agreed to our demand.

In the evening, Management has called for meeting with the Unions and Associations at 6 pm yesterday for discussing the notice for agitation programs. However, due to short notice, only GS/SNEA and GS/AIGETOA could attend the meeting. DIR(HR) informed that CMD and all the Directors met with Hon MOC on 16th June 2017 and apprised him about the necessity of extending 3rd PRC benefit to BSNL employees. Hon MOC was very positive on the issues and assured to take up the issue of exemption of affordability clause for BSNL with the Union Cabinet. DIR(HR) further informed that PS to MoSC for communication has called her up in the evening to inform that since Hon MoSC is assured for positive action, there is no need for BSNL employees to go for agitation at this point of time. We informed BSNL management that they could have called the Union/Assns well in advance and discussed the issue. In view of the positive and firm assurance given by MOC, DIR(HR) appealed to postpone the agitation for next 15 days.

On other issues, DIR(HR) also told us that the issue of increasing the quantum of Superannuation Benefit is being actively considered and very soon decision on the same shall be taken. On other HR issues of promotion, first TBP, E1A and E2A for Civil/Elect/PA/PS/Arch etc etc, management will continue its efforts to resolve the issues through mutual discussions. On Rs 22820/- issue, DIR(HR) asked to wait for the finalization of the pay scales and there after it can be discussed and resolved. DIR(HR) assured that all the demands of JF will be discussed and reviewed on a fortnightly basis. She further reiterated her commitment on withdrawal of vindictive actions of wage cut, charge sheet, memo etc.

Meeting with Joint Sec(Admn), DoT and Director(PSU), DoT on E2, E3 pay scales issue on 19.06.2017: JF leaders met Jt Sec(A) and held discussions on the BSNL reply on the matter. Jt Sec was not aware about the BSNL reply. Immediately he directed Director (PSU) to process the proposal.

JF MEETING WITH SHRI MANOJ SINHA, HON MOSC ON E2, E3 PAY SCALES

Meeting with Shri Manoj Sinha, Hon MoSC on E2, E3 pay scales:

Today, 03.06.2017, JF leaders had an excellent meeting with Hon MoSC Shri Manoj Sinha at Sanchar Bhavan, New Delhi regarding approval for E2 and E3 pay scales w.e.f 01.01.2007 as recommended by BSNL. We explained the issue and specifically told MoSC that it is a pending issue of 2nd PRC and during 2007-08, BSNL was making profit for more than 3000 Cr. All other Executives joined prior to 2007 got full benefit of 2ndPRC and the Executives joined from 2007 onwards deprived off the benefits. The revision of pay scales will benefit financially only the new recruits after 01.01.2007. BSNL recruited JTO/JAOs from among lakhs of highly qualified applicants through rigorous screening. In order to motivate them, E2 and E3 pay scales are to be approved as recommended by BSNL. Otherwise it will become very difficult to retain / attract the talent. Click here for photo

Instead of approving BSNL proposal, DoT notified lower pay scales of E1 and E2, demoting about 42,000 Executives in the basic cadres. The pay of JTO/JAOs recruited after 01.01.2007 will come down by around Rs 10,000 per month. Earlier Secretary, DoT agreed to approve E2 and E3 pay scales. On his transfer, AST acting against the recommendations of BSNL and detrimental to the Interests of BSNL employees, processed the proposal of 2009 which was rejected by DoT and DPE twice. Even in that proposal, there was no recommendation to lower the pay scales to E1 and E2. On 03.04.2017, BSNL written to DoT to reconsider the decision and the PO issued by DoT on 28.03.2017 and approve its proposal. It is pending in DoT for two months. Without your kind intervention, it will not be resolved in DoT, JF clearly told MoSC.

Hon MoSC was very positive during discussion and informed us that he knew the issues and positive actions will be taken when Secretary comes back next week. The intervention of MoSC will really resolve the issues. Shri Mahesh Girri/ Hon MP and BJP National Secretary personally taken us to the Hon Ministers office for the meeting, eventhough it is a holiday. Earlier our comrades of UP(E), MP, UP(W) met the Hon Minister, explained the issues and submitted memorandum. In the beginning, our AP comrades also briefed the issue through some sources. CMD BSNL also met him several times and reminded him about the issue. This week we met Shri Nitin Gadkari/Hon Union Cabinet Minister for Road Transport and Shipping, Sri Mahesh Girri/Hon MP and BJP National Secretary, Shri Hanraj Ahir/Hon Union Minister of State for Home Affairs and Dr. Subhash Bhamare/Hon Union Minister of State for Defence in this regard. All of them intervened in the matter and even spoken to the Hon MoSC. After these ground works, we met Hon MoSC in the office and explained the issues in detail once again.

In the coming days we have to mount pressure on Secretary/DoT through CMD and DIR(HR) to process the proposal positively.

THE NEXT PHASE OF AGITATION PROGRAMS OF INDEFINITE RELAY HUNGER STRIKE AND WORK ACCORDING TO RULES FROM 29.05.2017 IS POSTPONED TO 27.06.2017

The next phase of agitation programs of Indefinite Relay Hunger Strike and Work According to Rules from 29.05.2017 is postponed to 27.06.2017.

As Management has resorted to repressive methods for suppressing the voice of the Executives for the resolution of genuine HR issues by taking vindictive actions like dies-non, issuing Show Cause Notices and Charge sheet to JF leaders and other coercive methods to restrain our right for protest, Joint Forum has decided to launch strong protest against such vindictive actions by holding two days massive Dharna on 1st and 2nd June 2017. Discussions are held with the non-executive unions also and it is agreed that further agitation program will be held jointly with non-executive unions under the banner of Forum of BSNL Unions and Associations to protest against the oppressive actions taken by management.

For the effective implementation of the next phase of agitation programs of Indefinite Relay Hunger Strike and Work According to Rules, it is decided to hold a Joint meeting of CSs and CHQ Office bearers of the JF on 17th and 18th June, 2017. Venue will be announced shortly. Before the joint meeting of CS/CHQ office bearers, all Circles should complete the joint Circle Executive Committee meetings. GSs/CHQ office bearers of the Associations will try to attend the CEC meetings as far as possible. The dates of CEC meetings should be intimated to CHQ by Monday. Otherwise the dates will be finalized and announced by CHQ. Similarly joint SSA meetings also to be held before the CS meeting.

All the preparations and strategies are to be worked out for the successful implementation of Work According to Rules from 27.06.2017.

JF Forum leaders met CMD, BSNL and DIR(HR) and held discussions on the issues and reviewed the developments.

PS to MOSC called the JF and BSNL management for discussion on Monday, 29.05.2017 on the BSNL proposal of E2 and E3 pay scales. BSNL will be represented by DIR(HR) and PGM(Estt).
DoT sought some clarifications on 7 to 8 points on BSNL proposal of E2 and E3 dated 01.05.2017 mainly on the following points:
a) Affordability of the proposal as BSNL is making huge losses in 2012-13, 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16.
b) Details of the rect made after 01.01.2007 onwards.
c) Cascading proposal of BSNL. Whether it stands withdrawn or not as per the latest proposal?

d) Impact on existing EPP.

Same time, AIGETOA Kerala Office Bearers and Petitioners of DoPT case at Hon. High Court of Kerala had been invited to CO, New Delhi by management for discussion on the issues. Detailed discussions held with Pers section in the presence of CHQ office bearers of both SNEA and AIGETOA. All the parties agreed to end the deadlock and facilitate issuing promotions to all the available vacancies. Seniority will be decided as per the outcome of court cases.

The progress in receipt of VCs for JTO to SDE promotion from circles is not at all encouraging and district secretaries are directed to ensure that VC reaches to Circle Office positively by next weekend.

UPDATES ON IMPLEMENTATION OF STANDARD PAY SCALES W.R.T COURT CASE

On 22-08-2016, Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh directed BSNL/DOT to implement Standard Pay Scales for JAO/JTO and AO/SDE within 2 months... But, BSNL/DOT did not do this... We filed Contempt Application before Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh to be heard on 31-03-2017... BSNL/DOT filed Review Application against Order dated 22-08-2016, which Hon'ble CAT Chandigarh dismissed.

The copy of the orders of Hon'ble Tribunal. Click here

We request everyone to go through the orders of the Hon'ble tribunal.

Perhaps now each and every BSNL recruited should realise what AIGETOA is doing for protecting the rights of the BSNL recruited Fraternity in BSNL. Now they should realise that it is only AIGETOA who can fight for the issues of BSNL recruits. From the orders, it is quite clear that why DoT suddenly has gone into hyperactive mode and they are even willing to go beyond their purview to issue the revised scales.

With regard to the news that E1A and E2A scales being approved, our legal team is of the firm opinion that DoT can not extend intermediate pay scale as the same has not been approved by cabinet. Without approval of the cabinet, the scale can not be termed as standard which shall again be the violation of the cabinet orders on 2nd PRC as well as the directions of the Hon'ble court. Anyhow, if they do it, we will challenge that legally as well as on organisational front. With regard to extending E1, we have already obtained a Stay against any degradation of scales by challenging the operation of clause 10 of the JTO RR 14.

While the credit mongers claim credit, AIGETOA works actually on ground.. Others may say that they won the world war , they fought the war and turned the world upside down, however it is AIGETOA only who is committed to protect the rights of the executives. We once again reaffirm our commitment for protecting the rights of BSNL recruits and requests all BSNL recruited executives to unite under the umbrella of AIGETOA.

AIGETOA EXTENDS ITS GRATITUDE TO ALL THE BSNL RECRUITED EXECUTIVES WHO HAVE SHOWN FAITH IN AIGETOA

AIGETOA is the only BR Executive association in BSNL, which not only thinks for BR Executives issues but also cares for them and dedicatedly work for the settlement of BR Executives cadre issues.

This is NOT an association,

- Which sympathise with BR executive issues, only on association WEBsites.

- Which has indifferent attitude towards BR issues.

- Which pompously shows its appeasement on WEBSITE but derails all BR issues from back door.

- Who always play with the sentiment of thousands of BR executives but blackmail through transfer and posting, clearly neglecting the cadre issues.

- Which feels, we can satisfy all BR fraternity.

- Which does not believe in credit mongering.

Friends! AIGETOA is an association,

- Which heartily & dedicatedly works for the settlement of BR executive's issues and can go upto any extent for the settlement of cadre issues.

- Which has forced other associations to keep the burning issues of BSNL recruited as their prime agenda.

- Which takes care of BR Executives issues in its true spirit.

- Whose continuous effort have forced management to settle many issues of BSNL recruited executives including creation of superannuation fund, issuance of clear cut guidelines for maintaining and settling Rule-8 transfers.

- Whose continuous endeavour is to ensure the benefits to the BSNL recruited without bothering for the credit as evident from its various struggles, persuasions and court cases.

As the first month of Membership drive is nearly over and we are thankful to the BSNL recruited executives across India for the faith and support extended to the association. We are thankful to these executives who despite the malicious campaign by other groups believe that AIGETOA is the only executive association which cares and truly works for BR Executives. We are glad to inform that despite the propaganda created by some groups, many BR JTOs who recently got promotion from JE Grade have shown faith and joined in AIGETOA across all over India.

We take this opportunity to thanks the BSNL recruited executives of all India and specially Jharkhand where almost all BSNL recruited executives who got their promotion from JE to JTO have joined AIGETOA recently. AIGETOA-CHQ congratulates AIGETOA Jhankhand circle body for their effort to bring all BRs under one platform and also thank all the BR executives for showing faith on AIGETOA.

We appeal all BSNL recruited executives to come and unite under the umbrella of AIGETOA which the only platform with following Motto:

By the BSNL Recruited Executives...

For the BSNL Recruited Executives...

Of the BSNL Recruited Executives...

AIGETOA will try its best to stand up to your expectation and will work dedicatedly for the settlement of all cadre issues related to BR Executives.

Seniority case in JTO Cadre

We are in receipt of a lot of queries on the status of the court case with respect to the seniority case in JTO Cadre. We hereby present the facts and details of the case from the applicant's and DR's perspective which may serve an eye opener not only for the directly recruited but also the departmental JTOs. Going through the details, it is clearly visible who is trying to stop the promotions. The real fact is that those who are trying to project themselves to be the saviors are in fact the real culprits. It is a must read for all Direct Recruited as well as Departmental JTOs.(Click here for Court Case Detail Draft)

JTO Seniority case update from Hon. High Court Kerala (17th Feb Update)

The arguments at Hon. High Court regarding JTO Seniority case with respect to non conformance with DoPT guidelines and flows in All India Eligibility List completed today. Decision by Hon. High Court is reserved. Details will be updated.

DR-JTO Seniority Case at Hon High Court (16th Feb Update)

The arguments continued on 16.2.2017 once again in detail. DR JTO Applicant advocates explained the problems in the Circulated All India eligibility list. In AEL the promotee JTOs were give undue seniority to which they are even not eligible at all.

If BSNL followed or allowed to follow DoPT guidelines as demanded , the DR JTOs in BSNL up-to 3 to 4 batches got a very good chance for becoming SDEs without LDCE exams.

It is pertinent to say that the so called self proclaimed groups were delaying the jto seniority so far. We hope that justice will render to us.Once again we request those DRs to identify the intention of those groups and who are working for ruining the career progression of BSNL Recruits.

The arguments will be continued on 17th Feb 2017 also, which is also somewhat rare in Court hearings.

Seniority In JTO Cader based on DoPT/ GoI Guidelines

DoPT case was takenup for hearing on 15-2-17 at Hon. HC Kerala. Case will be heard in a new bench. The hearing was again detailed.

The seniority Case in JTO cader taken for detailed hearing in a new bench: Arguments will be continued tomorrow. BSNL Management and So called supported association respondents argued against Direct Recruit JTOs justified and delayed seniority.

DR JTO Vs Promotee JTO seniority with regard to 1:1 stand was strongly pointed by DR applicants in Kerala.

Needless to say/understood by all DR JTOs that, one side the so-called hidden agenda people are trying to get our hard earned money as subscription and other side they are trying to stop our promotions Via LDCE/Via seniority.

In effect they are cheating entire JTO community ie. both promotees and DRs who are their members too. AIGETOA always wanted better career progression/promotion and we are trying for convince the same, be it on LDCE front or DPC. But at the same time some corners simply want to drag the same for...

It's up to YOU all to think….

BSNL MANAGEMENT CONTEMPLATING TO DECLARE THE RESULTS OF DGM RECRUITMENT

It is learnt that BSNL management is contemplating to declare the results of DGM recruitment which has been kept withheld till date. Earlier, it was learnt that the committee constituted for the purpose decided to wait for the membership verification to get over and the result was to be declared after taking the cognisance of the majority association.

Now if BSNL is contemplating to declare the result, the opinion of majority association must have been obtained. If this is happening, then definitely it will be a gross injustice to the executives of BSNL and huge blunder on the part of the majority association. Through our website, we request all to take cognisance of the sentiments associated with the issue and refrain from taking any action which will result into huge de-motivation, resentment and unrest amongst the executives especially the younger lot who are none less than any other candidate and have been deprived of the chance. We are keeping a close watch on the issue.

AIGETOA BSNL Development Team taken meeting with CGM Sir on Wednesday 02.03.2016

                                 Consumer mobility:     Mission-4M (M4M) connections:

           Initiative taken:

          Retailers awareness drive :

Feeling channel partners as a integral part of our business for recurrent growth and extended hours/widespread BSNL outlets , we started a retailers awareness drive in Ahmedabad in Jan’16. We visited over 30 potential retailers of Vaijalpur, Gandhigram, Shyamal, Paldi, Gurukul cross road , Vijay cross road and CG road. One common feedback of big concern was unawareness of recently and well hyped 80% reduction in pulse rates among them. Nobody complained about our QoS.

Outcome of initiative:

New retailers created ---5   Revenue earned from new retailers----Rs. 11K   SIM sold -- 5

Predrive sales of visited retailers---- Appx Rs. 2.05 Lac

Afterdrive sales of Visited retailers---- Appx Rs. 2.43 Lac

Predrive SIM sold by visited retailers---- 25

Afterdrive SIM sold by Visited retailers---- 57

Suggestion:

Adoption of atleast one retailers by each BSNL staff:

Lack of communication between BSNL staff and channel partner will be eradicated, if one employee adopts atleast two retailers in vicinity of residential area. It will have multiple advantages like

·         Growing confidence of retailers

·         Removal of complacency of a employee and inculcation of understanding of market trend.

·         17000 employees of BSNL Gujarat will ensure service to all existing 27000 PoS of Gujarat.

             Prerequisites:

i.               Contact details of help desks (SSA marketing/Project Vijay team,CMTS team) with adopting employee to rectify retailers’ general issues

ii.             Availability of PoP materials specially monthly tariff cards and commission cards with adopting staff to educate adopted retailer.

        Commencement and monitoring of this drive:

i.                Senior officers may set a paradigm by adopting few retailers in any event of   employee gathering and may set a goal to DE/AGMs to replicate it throughout his working channel.

ii.                SSA marketing staff may assigned task to prepare list of such adopted retailers with detail of adopting employee.

iii.              After a predecided time, status report and after drive impact reports may be sought by Sr. officer.

CFA/EB/VAS

     Initiatives taken

     Segmentation of fixed line customers to extract other revenue   potentials from   them:

Based upon CDR data of Jan’16, we have segmented BB/LL customers of ATD,JMN and GDH into five segment

i.        High revenue customers (monthly bill >2000) :

         We have planned to promote our ILL, Postpaid, VAS (specially Name tune/Company tune) facilities to them on their mail ids and contact nos.

 ii.       Mid revenue customers (Monthly bill 500- 2000):

         To promote VAS services, pyari Jodi connections and high speed broadband plans on their mail ids and contact nos.

 iii.      Low revenue customers ( Monthly bill 100-500):

         To promote pyari Jodi and mid range BB/LL plans on their mail ids and contact nos.

 iv.      Surrendered customers:

          To try to resume through proper presentation of benefits of BSNL fixed line on their mail ids.

 v.           Identification of potential customers with LL but not having BB:

            Sir, as aspired by you to promote trial basis BB services, we strategized to target those customers who have LL but not BB. A personal communication will be established to such customers in upcoming 20-30 days and aftermath of this approach will be submitted to you.

            Sir, a separate category may define for such customers to avoid wrong representation of surrendering BB connections because trial basis connections may invite a substantial amount of dissatisfied customers.

Support needed :

1.    A BSNL domain named mail id having capacity of sending bulk mail of around 1000 recipient at a time

2.    A SMS firing platform supporting message to other operator’s nos also.

 Miscellaneous but high priority issue

  Parishkar Society,Khokhara isuue :

we have identified a big society named Parishkar, Khokhra having dwelling  unit of 1000 where we can aspire at least 100 BB connections and lead generation/ OB of 25 applicants had already been done in Feb’15 but we could not be delivered as a 500 mt cable is required to connect society with near about FTTH network and few more length to develop internal network.

 Sir, This society is adjacent to IITRAM, Khokhra which is a reputed management college  and also needed FTTH connectivity.

Sir, if we can provide connectivity to the college and the society in loop, it will be a handsome revenue earning project.

Sir, GTPL is finding its boot on this society and already provided three or four connections. If

we are delayed in this project, it will be apparent missing of huge business opportunity.

                             Few immediately tangible suggestions:

i.              SMS/Mail based plan upgradation facility to BB customers:

In present, a BB customers has to visit his parent CSC for upgradation of existing plan which is sometime not feasible for a serving customer. There should be a SMS based facility to customers for such small issues. If not possible, a mail based facility may be provided to customers where he can upgrade his plan by just sending mail to concern CSC officer

ii.            Felicitation letter to customers:

A well drafted and inked signed felicitation letter may be sent to selected customers to develop a personal relationship. In addition, running plans and development may be indicated in that.
