Friends, we are almost on the verge of success for achieving the long awaited settlement of the standard pay scale E2 for JTO/JAO Equivalent. One side, 9 year long case is reaching to its conclusion which in all probability will be in favor of the members of AIGETOA and on the other side, BSNL has once again taken up the issue with DoT, a phase shift from their earlier stand which they took after receiving the letter from DOT as a part of the CLC settlement held with the other association. AIGETOA all this while has never let it go and kept its struggle on, both through legal means and also through BSNL by organisational means. Today we are almost reaching to settlement. Thanks to your support and participation. We request you to strengthen the platform by joining en-masse.

Together We Will Achieve Everything
