The analysis of the so called benefits of the half cooked CPSU policy as claimed by the proclaimed SENA…

The deadlock situation in post-based promotion (for the very limited vacancies) is
mainly due to litigations on:

i)Reservation issue in all the Grades –  It will be there in the so called half cooked policy also –better option would be to resolve the dispute in current policy through discussions across the table which the so called messiah always tries to derail…taking advantage of his so called recognised status now extended wrongly. RESERVATION ISSUE WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM IN JTO TO SDE DPC.

ii)Contempt of case (JTO to SDE, SDE to DE and JAO to AO) : Contempt case in JTO to SDE is not the show stopper.. In fact the messiah and his cronies tried their level best to derail the implementation of the Ernakulum Judgement by filing irrelevant review petitions… Now that after efforts and persuasion of AIGETOA, a conclusive direction has been given to these promotions where promotions can be done even in the absence of RP judgement and management is actively working towards issuance of promotion orders, the messiah has again started the CPSU song after two years JUST TO DIVERT THE ATTENTION OF THE MANAGEMENT… and derail the whole exercise.

SDE to DE and AO to CAO… the matter can be very well resolved through discussions…AIGETOA has already initiated these discussion…

iii)Seniority issue (JTO to SDE) – The dispute was on Inter-se-seniority which was finalised by Hon’ble High Court and there is no such dispute at all…In fact the messiah and his cronies only tried to create the dispute. By filing irrelevant review petitions for  Intra-Seniority (i.e. within the stream) which was never in question and was never disputed by anybody in court. There is no stay or injunction on promotions from any court of law and promotions can be issued very well subject to the outcome of the court direction as sufficient vacancies are there now which can cater to the requirement of all eligible candidates including LICE 2012 batch

Thereafter also the process will remain flawless…as more vacancies will be
created with promotions of existing incumbents of SDEs Posts…(Around 6000 in
number which takes care of all executives recruited or promoted till date) to overcome the hurdles due to litigations, CPSU Hierarchy OR Time Bound functional promotion upto AGM/CAO Grade (E4 scale) is approved by the BSNL Board on 28.05.2018 –

Blatant Lie as explained in previous part.. This policy is just an illusion in its current form and needs drastic changes to make it implementable and acceptable to all.

The action plan of AIGETOA is very clear and AIGETOA is not interested in showing an illusion/mirage to executives.. rather believes in being practical and try for something which is implementable…

Once the current promotions policy is implemented with all vacancies filled up:

1)All the eligible JTOs/JAOs will get promoted to SDE/AO and thereafter there will be consistent promotions as sufficient vacancies shall be there with promotions of SDEs/AOs to AGMs…which will take care of all the JTOs/CAOs in a residency period of 3-4 years…

2).All the eligible SDEs will be promoted to DE/AGMs. All the eligible AOs will become CAOs… and as huge shortage is there, they can be given promotions by relaxing the residency period also..

3)Future promotions upto AGM Grade assured after 7 years of Service in SDE/AO Grade to all.

4)After VRS, there is a golden opportunity to get assured AGM promotion after 7 years of SDE/AO service and SDE/AO promotion after 3-4 years of service.

5)Without DPC promotion can not happen… if any body says that promotion can happen without DPC then… he is simply befooling all. As the APAR criteria for so called CPSU promotions is stringent/different than time bound promotion… so fresh eligibility assessment will have to be done and without doing that any promotion will not be valid.

6)On 29.06.2018, all the vacancies in AGM cadre filled up and in fact new posts were created by eating away SDE vacancies. This shows the dishonest approach of the proclaimed SENA.Post-based promotion never gives promotion to all the eligible Executives. If this realisation was true, why the proclaimed SENA opposed CPSU since 2007…CPSU was coined by AIGETOA… developed by AIGETOA…but our envisaged policy was completely distorted by the proclaimed SENA just to benefit his own set of executives…If this policy has got so much potential, why his own office bearers are in court and opposed to this policy…

If he was so sure of this policy, why he pressed for DPC for his own set of
executives despite the so called clearance from BSNL Board.

By mentioning the case of Telecom Wing, the so called messiah has in fact tried to create an illusion that through DPC, only JTOs upto 2008 RY will get promoted… but the fact is that sufficient vacancies are now available post VRS and all the JTOs can very well be promoted through existing mechanism.  In fact, this statement shows his intellectual status where he is trying to create a divide between DR JTOs and LICE JTOs…and is trying simply to instigate a particular group against another group…They have been using this divisive technique since years.

Now Post VRS, even with existing policy, all will get a smooth career progression by getting their first promotion in 3-4 years and second promotion to AGM level in
7 years. i.e. All of them will get assured promotion to AGM Grade after 10-11 years of complete service. In the case of SDE to AGM promotion, if current strength is maintained than all eligible including the list 9 executives will get promotion to AGM cadre else if the malaise design of keeping the AGM+DGM Posts confined to 3500 is forced upon, no BSNL Recruit including list 8 BRs will ever get promoted to AGM Cadre…  and if this half cooked CPSU policy is implemented, no executive of BSNL will ever get any promotion till this policy passes the test of law in supreme court.. which may take years and years to settle…

Management will always support and encourage those who demands promotion for few Executives alone –  This statement is quite true and now we can see the reasons behind management agreeing to the proclaimed SENA unreasonable demands in June 2018 because they asked for few executives while AIGETOA wanted it for all. Implementation of the Promotion Policy as approved by the Board, complying with the Reservation Policy Requirements of the Govt of India and Court orders will protect the interest and career aspirations of all sections of BSNL Executives – How this can be implemented when there is no such provisions for reservation in this policy…  so CPSU policy will have to be redrafted again to incorporate the changes for reservation policy as per direction of the BSNL Board and DoT… Again the messiah is trying to befool all by saying that policy is approved while he himself is saying that policy require changes to comply with government of India guidelines…

NO ONE SHOULD SPOIL THE FUTURE OF THE EXECUTIVES BY DEMANDING PROMOTION THROUGH A POLICY WHOSE FUTURE IS STILL UNCERTAIN….

NO ONE SHOULD SPOIL FUTURE OF EXECUTIVES BY AGREEING FOR DEGRADED SCALES FOR JTO CADRE i.e. E1 SCALES. THE CPSU DRAFT CONTAINS E1 AS SCALE FOR JTO. IN THEIR QUEST FOR MAKING BRs DOWN GRADED, THEY ACCEPTED E1 AS SCALES FOR JTOs JUST LIKE WHAT THEY DID WITH JTO 2014 RRS… AGAIN IT WAS LEFT TO AIGETOA TO RAISE VOICE AND FIGHT TO GET THE CORRECTIVE ACTION TAKEN BY MANAGEMENT…

In the continuing deadlock situation, instead of conniving with authorities for reduction in posts, better option is to get united and fight for promotions and against any reduction of Posts. Management has shown its positive attitude for giving promotions through existing mechanism… and have taken actions also… now its high time for the proclaimed SENA to realise that instead of misleading
executives into an imaginary and illusionary future, The Proclaimed SENA should come to terms of reality and extend a helping and united hand in AIGETOAs fight for rights of executives of BSNL…

Ultimately, all Associations are working for the welfare of the members, the Executives. If all Associations could work unitedly to achieve this goal, management cannot divide us as seen today and issues will be resolved much earlier and all the Executives will be benefited.

THIS IS A VERY GOOD MESSAGE AND IT SHOULD BE PRACTISED INSTEAD OF BEING PREACHED…AND WE SUGGEST PROCLAIMED SENA TO PRACTISE IT AND WORK UNITEDLY FOR ACHIEVING THE PROMOTIONS FOR ALL…INSTEAD OF MISLEADING ALL AND TRY TO CREATE A DIVIDE BETWEEN EXECUTIVES…

A momentum has started : Willingness of BSNL Executives across the board are high to join us and all have started to gather on the platform of AIGETOA.

Recently Vellore BA of TN circle and Muzzafarnagar SSA of UP-West circle made
their District bodies. Opening the Membership window has Charged up all the executives of BSNL, it seems officers are fed up for 3.5 years long hypocrisy of the So called mighty associations who failed to achieve anything significant w.r.t PPP (Pay Promotion Pension), committed by them. In fact they completely ignored the interests of young executives (Either BSNL Recruit it absorbed from DoT), and left them on mercy of management and kept their issues pending without any resolution. Even many times, well tracked issues which were moving towards resolution had been derailed by them. It’s a humble appeal to all executives of BSNL that now it’s time to change the legacy of leadership and it’s high time that policies of OUR BSNL should be dealt by the young brigade…

Join yourself and feel proud to be in your own association.

AIGETOA – Fighting For You…Always…

The Myth/illusion of Half cooked CPSU Hierarchy – A Wilful and wishful thinking of the so called proclaimed SENA….

We are Thankful that Leader of the so-called Proclaimed SENA finally accepted that promotion in the JTO to SDE Grade through DPC is possible??hough his uncalled for ego has used the term remote. Its a well known saying – Its Better to be late than never…So instead of misleading executives through a vicious campaign of showing something which is not possible in reality…he should now come to the terms of reality and pursue against reduction of the posts in all promotional cadres and unite with AIGETOA in its fight for promotions…

We also have noted their so called appeal for unity on CPSU, However, We are wondering… Where was this united thought of this so called great soul of BSNL when on 15th and 29th of June 2018, they were getting the orders of SDEs and AGMs issued for a select few leaving all BSNL recruits in lurch..Demanding Post based promotion instead of CPSU Hierarchy is equivalent to stalling all the present and future promotions. That also when Management itself considering implementation of CPSU Hierarchy – The great person himself acknowledges  his wrongful deeds in his own sentences…BSNL Board Passed this So Called CPSU on 28th May 2018…He himself demanded post based promotion for the DoT absorbed JTOs stalling the promotions for BSNL Recruits…Great…Preaching others but not practicing self – This shows the double speak and the real intentions.He himself demanded Post based Promotions for SDEs to DEs/AGMs??y eating away thousands of SDE posts.

The so called representative of executive fraternity brazenly allowed promotion for his own set of people leaving BSNL Recruits to fight and feed for themselves…It was AIGETOA which forced management to restore those posts in SDE cadre by asking for updated roster… After having eaten away all which was on the platter…the messiah got awaken and had a sudden enlightenment and came with a saintly advice – Now that all my friends and support base has got promoted through existing mechanism, the left over executives should now be promoted  through a new policy called half baked CPSU Hierarchy…After all…if he was so sincere in his approach, why he did not pushed his own people to get promoted through so called CPSU…After all…just 2 days before his so called golden date – 1st july 2018, he pushed for promotions through DPC…and that too by creation of extra vacancies – and now preaching others to get promoted through new policy…

He knows. This CPSU policy will never see the light of the day in its current form…The great warrior forgot to tell all that the so called CPSU Policy is already under injunction by Hon’ble Court even before it is implemented. The great warrior also forgot to tell that the so called CPSU policy has yet not been approved and board has approved with direction that Govt Directions on reservation policy is to be followed and the provisions of reservation contained in this half cooked policy is marred with controversy…The so called Warrior has forgot to tell that this so called policy is yet to go through the scrutiny of DoT before implementation…

So it is clear– He wanted his own set of people to be promoted through existing mechanism and wanted to push BSNL Recruits and  left over executives to an entirely new and litigation prone policy…Actually…reasons are clear…Designs are clear…BSNL Recruits should remain stagnated in their current posts for ever according to these people.The so called messiah also forgot to inform his under the wraps discussion with Restg Cell where BSNL Management have clearly stated that they want drastic reduction in post…The Meeting happened in 3rd week of March 2020 and  it took an update from AIGETOA after its agenda meeting with Director HR and other officers of HR wing that the proclaimed SENA accepted that posts are being reduced.

AIGETOA is very clear in its approach. We cannot play with future of executives...we are asking for filling up of all the vacancies. We are asking for extending promotion to all eligible executives.  If the sanctioned strength is not reduced, then even after deduction of VRS optees, the posts are sufficient to take care of career aspirations of all executives and in fact all executives will get promotions in a time bound manner only and there is no need for experimenting and putting careers of thousands and thousands of BSNL Recruits at risk by pushing for an uncertain and litigation prone policy.

To be continued – The analysis of the so called benefits of the half cooked CPSU policy as claimed by the proclaimed SENA…

GS AIGETOA writes to CMD BSNL regarding apparent misrepresentation of facts by GM(Restg) in the ongoing restructuring exercise by not presenting correct strength of AGM/DE (Telecom) grade. The sanctioned strength of AGM(T) should be counted as 9470 (5303 + 4167) for all calculation purposes and there should not be any reduction in posts of any promotional cadre by virtue of restructuring -Further we demand for free and fair enquiry into the whole process adopted in June-2018 for creation of thousands of AGM posts in a single day.

Update on committee meeting and other issues in line with our meeting:

Team AIGETOA met committee members on the issue of SDE reversal. The meeting of the committee was held yesterday ..however discussion could not be concluded yesterday as members needed some time to go through the Stay orders obtained in various courts and another meeting will be held shortly to conclude on the discussion. On the other issues, some delay was there and the resolution of the same was strongly pursued by our team. The issue of delay was also escalated to Director (HR) through GM SR for adherence of the time lines as committed in the meeting.

After followup by AIGETOA Team, GM SR has personally reminded all the sections with regard to decisions and timelines. All the sections have assured that they have initiated the actions and all the actions are being taken as per commitment in the meeting. The slight delay was due to unavailability of some staff. It has been assured that work is underway as per commitment. It isnow learnt that file for Legal opinion for JTO to SDE DPC as well as preparation
of list 9 has been processed by Personnel section.

SDE Reversal Issue – Term of Reference of Committee pronounced:

As assured in meeting dated 22.05.2020 with AIGETOA and updated earlier, the proper Terms of Reference (TOR) along with all documents have been circulated to all committee members and as per assurance in the meeting, committee is meeting today i.e. 26.05.2020. The committee has been given a clear mandate in line with the discussions held with AIGETOA.

We hope that committee considers the issue in a positive way as per the commitment given by management to our association. We time and time again has emphasized that the clause 12(5) of SDE RR 2002 was applicable as replied by corporate office through its clarification dated 16.04.2007 on queries raised by various circles and hence all those 2001 JTOs, who were allowed to appear in LDCE-2007 using this clause are legitimate as per the applicability of clause in AIEL. This has not been rejected by any court of law and any modification in the clause 12(5) of SDE RR 2002 on later dated of LDCE Exam i.e. 15.07.2007 by BSNL Corporate Office, New Delhi can?? be applied retrospectively. We are thankful to Director (HR) in understanding the case after we briefed him in detail in our first meeting on 16.11.2019 and taking appositive and justified stand to resolve it.

We also hope that some Associations will not do any mischief behind the back as recently; role of one of the so called messiahs came to light in serving the first show cause notice to Tamil Nadu candidate?? years ago. It was brought to our notice from some sources that the concerned person who is projecting himself as messiah has been the main brain behind the First show cause notice being served in Tamil Nadu and start of this whole mischief. We request all the sufferers to not to fall prey to such guys and instead request them to do the fact finding to know and catch the real culprit.
