All India Graduate Engineers & Telecom Officers Association
20 Years of Togetherness – United By Purpose, Driven by Passion
Dear Members,
As we celebrate the completion of twenty years of AIGETOA on 21 November 2025, it gives us immense pride to look back at a journey that began with humble beginnings and has today evolved into the strongest and most credible platform of BSNL Executives. What started as a small group of young executives raising genuine concerns has, over the years, grown into a national organization with a clear purpose, deep conviction and an unbroken commitment to fairness and dignity for all BSNL executives.
AIGETOA was formed at a time when the concerns of BSNL Recruits were not receiving the attention they deserved. Guided by the foundational efforts at Rewari, Haryana, the association was built from the ground up with a structured and democratic framework. These early years laid the foundation of an organization that was driven not by slogans but by action, which is why “Our actions speak” continues to reflect our character even today.
The defining moment in our early history came during the historic “Operation Sacrifice” in 2009 that transformed AIGETOA into a force recognized across BSNL. “Operation Sacrifice” established the association as the true voice of BSNL Executives and firmly placed the issues of Pay Revision, Pay scales, Pay Losses, Promotions, HR Parity and Social Security on BSNL’s national agenda. The continuity of strong and committed leadership at CHQ, Circle & District has shaped AIGETOA into a stable, resilient and purpose-driven organization.
Over the last two decades, our collective efforts have ensured that executive’s issues remain at the center of policy discussions, whether it is of Implementation 3rd PRC or settlement of residual issues of 2nd PRC i.e. Standard Pay Scales of E2-E3 for JTO/JAO-SDE/AO Equivalent, Pay losses, Smooth Career Progression & Promotions, 30% SAB, HR transparency and Parity, settlement of reversal cases, correction of long-standing anomalies or responding immediately to arbitrary actions by Management. With persistent submissions to BSNL management, DoT, MoC and through the support of BMS and BDM, these issues remain firmly on the national agenda. Our recent interventions, media outreach and structured meetings have helped bring a new level of visibility to the concerns of BSNL executives spread across all platforms.
These twenty years have also been a testimony to our culture of togetherness. “Together we can, Together we have, Together we will” has not just been a slogan, it has been our lived experience. At every stage, it was the solidarity of members that carried the association forward, whether in times of struggle, persuasion, negotiation or policy corrections. Our unity has been our greatest strength and remains the foundation of every achievement.
What has always set AIGETOA apart is its character. We are not an association driven by legacy, nor are we guided by external interests. We were created by the executives of BSNL, for the executives of BSNL and that identity remains our strength. As the calendar marks our 21st milestone, our resolve shines brighter: To lead with Consistency, fight with Persistence, chase dreams with Passionate Pursuit, and protect the welfare of BSNL executives with unshakable Commitment. .
At this momentous occasion, our commitment continues for one Nation, one BSNL, one Dream, One strength. We continue to move forward with the vision of “One PSU – One Association” – The most effective way to forge this dream into unbreakable reality! A unified and strong executive platform is essential for fairness in policies, transparent growth opportunities and long-term career stability and AIGETOA is taking all efforts to realize this vision.
On this landmark occasion, we extend heartfelt gratitude to every BSNL employee, every Member, every Leader – Past and Present whose commitment, trust and participation shaped the journey of AIGETOA. Your faith in this association is the reason we stand strong today, and it will continue to guide us in the years ahead.
Let us celebrate twenty years of determination, unity and progress with pride. And let us step into the future with renewed energy, committed to justice, dignity, growth and the long-term welfare of every BSNL executive.
With warm regards,
Team AIGETOA
