Update on Meeting with Management on the taking over of MTNL operations issue:

Meeting on the MTNL operations take over completed. We have categorically expressed that till the issue of Standard Pay scales, Issue of 3rd PRC along with promotion to all those who have completed their residency in their grades and issue of 30 percent superannuation benefit, is resolved, AIGETOA will not support any move of deployment of executives from outside BSNL. Management side expressed that such deployment will not have any linkage with BSNL Executives. We said question is not of linkage, but such decisions cannot be supported or discussed in isolation. There are issues related to financial implications of taking over operations, legal consideration of deployment of staff from one PSU to other PSU, what will happen to other employees of MTNL, what is the long term vision and whether there is any plans for merger or not, pros and cons of taking over MTNL operations vis-a-vis creating a fresh network at Delhi and Mumbai etc. we also emphasized that since BSNL has been denying all issues in the name of financial crunch, first BSNL should resolve those issues then think of moving in the direction of MTNL staff deployment. We also told that for taking over the operations, no financial burden should be there on BSNL and all such expenditure must be borne by government.

We further told that under the above backdrop, management must share the exhaustive proposal along with the complete roadmap, then only any discussion can take place. Till that time BSNL should not move ahead with this Proposal.

Another meeting shall be held shortly on the issue.

A detailed update shall be shared soon.
