Status on SDE to AGM LICE Court Case Hon’ble CAT Chandigarh:

The detailed arguments regarding the court case on SDE to AGM LICE 2024 were held today. Advocates from all the three sides including the advocate standing on behalf of Team AIGETOA presented their arguments. Two senior counsels from Delhi BSNL, AOR from Haryana, President Bar Council on behalf of AIGETOA were standing for getting the stay vacated. The pleadings were done in very effective manner.

AIGETOA advocate Mittal Ji presented the grievance of affected executives and explained all the nitty-gritty including the significance of the cut off date of 31st December 2024. Shri Mittal Ji was in fact appreciated by other counsel also for his brilliant presentation before the Hon’ble bench.

Hon’ble bench apparently convinced by the arguments have reserved the Judgment. We are confident that the bench will pronounce the orders well before the cutoff date. Based on today’s arguments and proceedings, we are optimistic about a favorable outcome.

Earlier, Both the Senior advocates from New Delhi arrived Chandigarh a day in advance. Several Meetings were held to prepare and present effective arguments before Hon’ble court. The Pers Team from the Corporate Office was also present in the court today. The legal team of AIGETOA was also present in court.

This outcome is the result of AIGETOA’s consistent follow-up, involving persistent efforts and coordination at all levels to resolve the stalemate in court and ensure a proactive approach from all stakeholders.

We request all concerned to have faith in the efforts of the association and we assure that no stone will be left unturned to execute the long awaited promotions not only through LICE but also through DPC.

We extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to the CMD BSNL, Director HR, PGM Pers, the Legal Team from Pers and Haryana Circle and the senior advocates presenting the case. The management has really been considerate in its approach and the renewed compassion which the current team is showing towards the long pending HR issues of executives, there is no reason to worry. We firmly believe that it’s only a matter of time that all the pending issues shall be resolved in positive manner. It’s now the turn of the executives also to respond in a positive manner by taking all efforts to achieve the increase in revenue and dedicating ourselves to the cause of BSNL. With this “Together WE will” approach from management and executives, everything is possible.
