Carrying Forward Ratan Tata’s Legacy: BSNL and TCS in Aatmanirbhar Bharat

A Tribute from AIGETOA

With deep respect and heartfelt sorrow, we at AIGETOA, along with all BSNL employees, pay tribute to Shri Ratan Tata, a giant of Indian industry, a visionary leader, and a true patriot who dedicated his life to the advancement of our nation. His passing marks the end of an era, yet his contributions will forever illuminate the path forward for future generations.

Shri Ratan Tata’s leadership of the Tata Group was nothing short of transformative. Under his stewardship, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) became a global technology leader, symbolizing the true potential of Indian innovation. His unwavering commitment to India’s self-reliance resonates deeply with us at BSNL, especially in our joint endeavors with TCS in pioneering indigenous 4G and 5G technologies. Together, we strive to fulfill his vision of a technologically empowered and self-sufficient India.

Ratan Tata was more than just a corporate titan—his humility, compassion, and commitment to philanthropy defined him as a man who always prioritized the welfare of society over personal or corporate gains. His immense contributions to healthcare, education, and rural development have left a legacy that transcends business and touches the hearts of millions.

As we remember Shri Ratan Tata, we vow to carry forward his vision of a modern, innovative India. In collaboration with TCS, BSNL stands at the forefront of India’s technological advancements, honoring his dream of making India a leader in telecommunications and digital empowerment. His legacy will continue to inspire us as we build a future powered by indigenous technology, fostering Aatmanirbhar Bharat in every sense.

In the early 2000s, Tata Motors faced severe financial challenges and even considered selling its passenger car division to Ford. During a meeting, the Tata team reportedly faced humiliation from Ford executives. However, instead of giving up, Ratan Tata decided to withdraw the sale offer and turned Tata Motors around, eventually leading the company to global success with acquisitions like Jaguar Land Rover. This story of resilience mirrors BSNL’s own journey. Faced with immense challenges and doubts about its future, BSNL is now on the path to revival through the rollout of indigenous 4G and 5G, embodying the same spirit of perseverance and innovation that Ratan Tata exemplified.

May his soul rest in peace. We extend our deepest condolences to the Tata family and all those whose lives he touched.

Om Shanti.

— On behalf of AIGETOA and BSNL employees

Team AIGETOA meets Hon’ble Chief Minister AP Shri N Chandrababu Naidu at New Delhi on 08.10.2024:

Team AIGETOA on 08.10.2024 met Hon’ble Chief Minister AP Shri N Chandrababu Naidu and requested for his kind help in resolving the long pending issues of BSNL employees. AIGETOA submitted a memorandum to Hon’ble CM AP seeking his kind intervention with Hon’ble PM and Hon’ble MoC in directing BSNL and DoT for settling the issues of 3rd PRC, Standard Pay Scales of E2 for JTO/JAO Equivalent, Pay Loss issues, 30 percent SAB, Promotion issues and other issues like revision in Transport Allowance, TA/DA etc. It was highlighted that the case of BSNL employees are more or less similar to similar to the AP Road Transport Corporation’s employees issues where RTC (Road Transport Corporation) is state owned Corporation and which used to be in losses due to rural BUS services. Their issues have been resolved without seeing the profitability, the same criteria needs to be adopted for BSNL also.

Hon’ble CM AP assured to look into the issues and told to discuss with the MoSC & Hon’ble MoC and after taking the feedback, the same shall be escalated to Hon’ble PM.

He also assured to have another round of meeting after discussing with Hon’ble MoSC. The appointment in this regard shall be conveyed soon.

Appeal from AIGETOA – Unified Approach on HR Issues, Advocates ‘One PSU, One Association’ Policy for BSNL:

Dear Friends,

As can be seen from recent meeting with CMD BSNL, AIGETOA has presented all major points before Hon’ble CMD BSNL and the positive vibes received from Hon’ble CMD BSNL on HR issues and also considering the fact that our Director HR is also very much compassionate and concerned about the resolution of long pending HR issues, its high time that we should resolve the issues. There may be differences as far as affiliations to associations are concerned but at the end, we should not forget that the prime objective of every association is to resolve the issues and for that matter AIGETOA doesn’t have any apprehensions in joining hands or supporting the efforts of others and the same we expect from other associations and their members also. We take this opportunity to seek support from all the executive fraternity on the above endeavours taken by AIGETOA for the welfare of the fraternity by rising above the association boundaries.

Another very important decision taken by AIGETOA in its recently concluded AGM is to implement the concept of One PSU, One Associationin line with the policies adopted by other PSUs where election is held for the office bearers post and not for electing any association. We had certain level of informal discussions with other associations also and shortly we shall be engaging into formal discussions on the issue. “One PSU, One Association” shall be in the best interest of the executive fraternity in our opinion.

We also request all the executives to come forward for the cause of BSNL in streamlining the services and increasing the connections and revenue. AIGETOA assures one and all that all the issues faced by executives in the field units shall be promptly highlighted before the management for resolution. We also assure that we will continue to stand firmly against any decision which is taken against the interest of the BSNL or its employees. Its high time to come together and reap the benefits in the larger interest of BSNL and its employees.

Updates of Meeting of Team AIGETOA with CMD BSNL held on 3rd October 2024 on the agenda points submitted by Association:

As per the decision taken in the last meeting held on 25th September 2024, the detailed follow up meeting with the CMD BSNL on the agenda points submitted by AIGETOA was held on 3rd October 2024. The Meeting lasted for almost one and half hour. A detailed discussion with CMD BSNL took place on various agenda points. The discussion was held in a very positive manner with CMD taking cognizance of various points submitted. AIGETOA expects a very positive outcome on agenda points which were agreed by Hon’ble CMD for consideration. We extend our thanks and gratitude to CMD BSNL and his team for sparing his time on the HR agenda points and continuing the meeting till late evening.

Click here for Glimpses of Meeting

The details of the discussions are as stated below:

1] SDE 2007 Reversal Case:

Association side once again explained the issue and requested CMD BSNL to direct the concerned section to resolve the issue without any further delay. We were firm in our submission that this issue should not be litigated anymore by BSNL and CAT orders must be implemented subject to outcome of Writ Filed at Hon’ble Lucknow High Court. CMD BSNL firmly assured that the issue shall be resolved and inputs of the association have been taken into consideration. He categorically reaffirmed his stand to extend justice to the deprived executives and informed that his team is working on the issue. He assured that the relief shall be given expeditiously without any further delay.

2] Promotion issues:

(a) SDE to AGM (Telecom) :

Issue related to reversal of seniority issue of LDCE 12 (List 9 to List 12) was well deliberated to CMD BSNL along with provision of Rota and Quota and solutions for DPC promotion. All the necessary documents were shown to establish that BSNL has taken a unidirectional and unjustified action by degrading the lists and making competitive quota executives Junior to those promoted through DPC for later vacancy years. We highlighted that the Injustice meted out to LDCE 2012 passed executives can only be undone by extending the promotions to all SDEs who have completed the residency period in the grade. We gave our suggestions on how this can be achieved.

We requested for counting the vacancies of SDE and AGM grade and highlighted that persons currently looking after the higher responsibility are in fact using 2 posts which is resulting in less opportunities of Promotion. We requested that instead of Look After, the charge for DGMs should be given on entrustment basis and use the resultant AGM vacancies for promotion from SDE to AGM cadre. This will benefit both, those who are doing LA in DGM cadre as well as additional promotions in SDE to AGM cadre can also be ensured. Further we requested for diversion of SET Vacancies to Promotion Quota and also requested for creation of additional posts. The Promotions from SDE to AGM will ensure additional promotions in JTO to SDE Telecom cadre also. Hence by one decision, problems of many cadres can be sorted out.

We also requested for reconsideration of introducing an upper cap in the residency period for all the grades and streams on personal upgradation basis which will do away with all the problems of various stream and cadres and will sort out the promotion issues permanently. This will also ensure a smooth and assured career progression for all current and future batches.

CMD BSNL assured that he is open to promoting people and expressed his willingness to consider the suggestions. He said that management should not have any issue with promotions especially when all are already getting the salary of a higher grade and the financial implication is zero. He directed his team to immediately work on the suggestions of association and prepare a proposal for further deliberation with HR team. We requested for an expeditious implementation and offered all possible support of the association in sorting this out. He further suggested that there should not be any contradictory approach from any other recognised group as differing view complicates the resolution. We assured the proposal of AIGETOA is in the larger interest of all and hence there will not be any issue from any group in our opinion. We emphasised that AIGETOA proposal takes care of the Roster and Reservation issues as well while assuring promotions in a timebound manner and hence should not face opposition from any group. However, any other proposal by anyone which ensures immediate promotions of all shall not be opposed by AIGETOA at least.

(b) LICE/LDCE Result:

It was discussed to the expedite the Chandigarh Court Cases in the cases pertaining to SDE to AGM LICE and JTO to SDE LICE. It was requested to Hon’ble CMD BSNL to give directions to the Pers team for early resolution of Chandigarh court cases related to both telecom and account cadres.

(c) AO to CAO/AGM:

We expressed the need for settlement of this issue and requested CMD BSNL for his intervention in settling this long pending issue. We explained the way out and alternatives by which it can be achieved. We also requested for implementation of the upper residency Period Cap in all the grades so that all the officers who have completed their residency can be promoted by personal upgradation of the posts. CMD BSNL asked his team to explore the possibilities so that the issue can be resolved.

(d) JAO to AO:

We informed CMD BSNL that mechanism followed in case of JTO to SDE Promotions in Telecom Cadre can be replicated in case of JAO to AO also as the situation is similar and the JAOs have been waiting since long for promotions. By using the mechanism, BSNL can promote the JAOs to AO grade Quite easily. CMD BSNL directed his team to work on the same. We also requested for introduction of an upper cap of 5 years residency so that the present JAOs as well as JAOs in future can be promoted to AO grade in a time bound manner.

(f) AGM to DGM Promotions:

We requested for publishing of AGM Seniority list and execute the promotions as there in no bar from any court on the Ad-Hoc Promotions at least. We also requested for the intervention of CMD BSNL in directing the concerned sections to expedite the pending court case for promotion in DGM Regular. CMD BSNL assured to look into the same.

(g) JTO to SDE promotions:

We explained the court cases at Chandigarh and we expressed the need for settlement of this issue and requested CMD BSNL for his intervention in settling the pending promotion issues for the basic cadre where we can get the vacancies from the SDE to AGM promotions. We also requested for introduction of an upper cap of 5 years residency so that the present JTOs as well as JTOs in future can be promoted to SDE grade in a time bound manner. CMD BSNL asked his team to explore the possibilities so that the issue can be resolved.

(h) Promotions in PA/PS/PPS, CSS, Civil, Electrical and other cadres:

We requested for executing the pending promotions in these cadres also as they have been kept pending for long. CMD BSNL assured to look into the same.

3] Standard Pay Scales of E2 for JTO/JAO Equivalent:

For implementing the standard pay scales of E2 for JTO/JAO/Equivalent cadre, we requested CMD BSNL to intervene with DoT for immediate resolution of the issue. We explained the whole background, the assurances made by Hon’ble MoC earlier, the discussion and deliberations which took place during tri party meeting of BMS affiliated unions and associations, DoT & BSNL and thereafter in the meeting of JS Admin with BSNL Management on the submissions made by AIGETOA. We requested CMD BSNL for his personal intervention on the issue with Hon’ble Minister and Secretary DoT for an expeditious implementation of the standard pay scales of E2 for JTO and JAO Equivalent grade as per the assurances made to AIGETOA. CMD BSNL directed his team to prepare a status note on the pay scale issue for taking up the same with Hon’ble Secretary DoT and Hon’ble MoC. He assured for a positive resolution of the issue and acknowledged the efforts made by AIGETOA for the Pay scale Resolution.

We highlighted that perhaps BSNL will be the only organisation in the country where three sets of initial basics are there for entry level cadres ie. 16400/-, 22820/- and 19020/-. We highlighted that all other PSUs resolved this anomaly by adapting higher entry level basic but in BSNL, the actions have been taken on to the contrary. We highlighted that same happened with the JEs also who joined during this intervening period in BSNL during implementation of 2nd PRC. We requested for intervention of Hon’ble CMD in settling these long pressing issues. CMD BSNL assured to look into the same.

5] 30% SAB (Superannuation Benefits):

CMD BSNL was informed about the background and requirement for an increase in SAB. We informed that successive CMDs assured for increasing the quantum but the same never happened. We explained the precarious scenario which a BSNL Recruits faces in terms of Social Security Benefits and the uncertainty associated with their families in the event of any untoward happening. CMD BSNL appreciated the need for increasing the contribution and agreed to increase the SAB contribution by 3% and directed his team to examine and process the case for approval by BSNL Board.

6] Implementation of 3rd PRC:

Issue was raised. However, CMD BSNL told us to have patience and focus on increasing the revenue. Uptick in revenue position will make the case for implementation of 3rd PRC stronger for BSNL. He assured that all efforts shall be taken by management but requested to exercise a little bit more patience.

7] DRF (Death Relief Fund):

CMD was very sensitive on the issue of DRF. He agreed to create a corpus fund for DRF. Modalities to be discussed and decided in due course.

We requested for implementation of the Supreme Court order in letter and spirit and by reading the judgement of Punjab High Court and Supreme Court together. CMD BSNL appreciated our concern and assured that the decision shall be taken in line with the Supreme Court orders and also the orders from Hon’ble Punjab and Haryana high court. He appreciated our submission that the Supreme Court order has to be read in concurrence with the Hon’ble High Court order which has not been set aside by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. He assured for a speedy resolution.

12] ALTTC Issue:

We highlighted the need for keeping a world class training center in NCR Region. We also highlighted about the difficulties faced by the trainees belonging to BSNL in terms of non-availability of the Hostels, Proper Food etc. We emphasized upon the need for co-existence of ALTTC as well as NTI-PRIT together and requested for his intervention in settling this out.

He said at least in FTTH, BSNL must show positive increase and sought the cooperation of employees in getting the same achieved. AIGETOA Team highlighted the various issues which are the prime reasons for the decline in FTTH connections and requested CMD BSNL to address those issues of Network and Media Failure TIP related issues etc. CMD BSNL assured that all the inputs given by association shall be duly examined and resolved.

Team AIGETOA also assured its cooperation in achieving the target but at the same time highlighted that a demotivated mind with an empty stomach cannot do any wonder. We expressed the need for addressing the issues of PPP which have been pending for so long. We told BSNL has got three revival packages but still employee has to spend from his pocket to get even a good health care. Hence now management must turn its focus to HR issues, if they are seriously thinking of reviving BSNL. We told CMD BSNL that let management take care of its internal customers i.e. employees while the employees will take care of the external customers. If the expectations are respected mutually from both sides, nothing is impossible to achieve.

As a first step, AIGETOA offered to do a Road Show at New Delhi to show case the various initiatives and services offered by BSNL, increase public awareness, attract people to BSNL services, showcase unity among management and employees, Highlight BSNL’s role in nation building and service to the citizens especially in border and hard terrain areas.

We expressed our heartful thanks to honourable CMD for the sparing his valuable time and giving the very much positive assurance and also discussed patiently above said points. This is initiative meeting with high positivity and will have many meeting like this to get the resolutions for the long pending HR issues. We are also thankful to DIR HR and HR team who are helping and discussing to resolve the pending HR issues.

The issue of deputation of executives from MTNL to BSNL was strongly taken up by team AIGETOA Yesterday and we have expressed firm opposition to any such deputation without addressing the concerns of PPP and 3rd PRC. We categorically expressed that we can never accept such proposals which are being pushed unilaterally without discussions and if needed, we shall be taking legal as well as organizational actions to stop this. Discussions to take place with Director HR on this issue next week.

Happy Gandhi Jayanti !!

We take immense pride in being part of BSNL’s journey to roll out Swadeshi 4G and 5G, a crucial step towards realizing the dream of Aatmanirbhar Bharat.
