Ever since VRS took place, AIGETOA consistently endeavoured for streamlining the SAB pension process and making the funds up to date. Finally, with our consistent pursuance and follow up, AIGETOA has been able to put the whole process on track and the pension mechanism has been defined now. A major part of outstanding contribution has also been credited to the fund and remaining balance has been assured to be cleared by March 2022.

We are pursuing to convince management to deposit 30% SAB and the date of effect be made from the start once there is some improvement in financial conditions. BSNL is also moving on right path and we are very sure that day is not very far when we will be able to achieve the full resolution of Pay and Pension issues.

Let’s move together to strengthen AIGETOA to achieve our long pending HR issues related to Pay, Pension and Promotions.

Telecom News – The government is considering providing a second, but smaller revival package to BSNL and preliminary talks have already begun in this regard. According to sources, the ailing state-owned firm, which was given a Rs 70,000-crore revival package in October 2019, is now seeking support for 4G rollout and settlement of adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues owed by it, to clean up its balance sheet. The firm owes around Rs 5,000 crore as AGR dues.

Official sources said that a few preliminary meetings between the department of telecommunications (DoT) and BSNL officials have already taken place to chart out a revival strategy, which would address the issues raised by the company. Further, the government is looking at increasing the scope of BSNL by allocating the BharatNet project to it after winding up BBNL (Bharat Broadband Network). “In such a scenario, some kind of financial support needs to be given to BSNL. We are working on finalising the modalities around it,” an official told FE.
