Surprisingly, no other association except AIGETOA was following these cases irrespective of their individual association Affiliations. It was only AIGETOA which raised the applicability of existing tenure guidelines as per the old orders who were already posted in hard tenure and also for those whose orders were issued before issuance of modified guidelines for tenure stations. We have already taken up the matter for keeping the tenure in line with the GOI Guidelines and same is under discussion. AIGETOA has strictly opposed increasing the tenure.

On this sacred occasion, let’s revel in the triumph of righteousness over evil and the victory of truth over deceit. Let’s also honor the relentless dedication of our BSNL executives, who are at the forefront of making India self-reliant in cutting-edge telecommunications, with indigenous 4G and 5G technologies.

AIGETOA remains unwavering in its commitment to resolve long-standing HR concerns related to pay, promotions, pensions, and the welfare of our dedicated executives. We are deeply appreciative of the invaluable support and guidance from the Parliamentary Committee on Public Undertakings (CoPU), which has recognized our inputs and is actively seeking a detailed report from the BSNL management. We are hopeful that our genuine demands will soon find resolution through the intervention of CoPU and the senior leadership of BSNL. Our heartfelt congratulations go to CMD BSNL, Shri P K Purwar ji, and Director HR, Shri Sandeep Govil ji, for their proactive and positive approach in addressing pending promotions across various grades. We sincerely appreciate their efforts and offer our full cooperation and support. We extend warm wishes for a joyful, prosperous, and secure Dussehra. May Goddess Durga bless you with health, wealth, and boundless happiness.

The court case for JTO to SDE Promotions pertaining to the operation of AIEL 3 was heard today. The Reply of BSNL has been submitted in both the cases. Intervention application of AIGETOA through its office bearer was also heard and Hon’ble Bench has allowed the intervention application of AIGETOA. Now advocate on behalf of AIGETOA can argue on the merits of the case.

The case is posted on 28th November at 2.30 pm for final arguments. We are very sure, the merit will definitely prevail and whatever way the case goes, AIGETOA will ensure that Promotion happens.

Friends, once again, it is AIGETOA only which is taking efforts to end the stalemate in JTO to SDE promotions. Our similar efforts are on for SDE to AGM Promotions also and AGM to DGM Promotions also. Similarly we are very close to breakthrough on 22820 and E2-E3 Court cases also.

This should also act as an eye opener to those who fell prey to the hollow promises and misguidance of their own brothers who just created a narrative against AIGETOA and encashed upon the sentiments of executives due to endless sufferings which has been meted out to several executive groups by virtue of consistent ignorance of the important HR issues by Management. Till date, we are yet to see any move from those torch bearers towards resolution of the issues while time is slowly tickling away. In fact the high decibel voice raised by those torch bearers across various groups has also gone silent. However it’s their choice, how they act or how they respond but AIGETOA is determined to remove all the roadblocks and end the stalemate on all the long pending issues of PPP. We consider ourselves duty bound to answer those 10,000 plus people who have shown their faith in AIGETOA.

We are very sure that with our consistent persuasion and unmatched perseverance, we will definitely succeed.

Finally, after the herculean efforts of AIGETOA, this long pending case reached finality. Though today also, efforts were made by some groups to delay the hearing. However BSNL advocate’s strong pursuance resulted into final breakthrough. AIGETOA Team hopes for a speedy pronunciation of the judgement which will pave the way for long awaited promotions in the grade of AO to CAO which will open the path for JAO to AO Promotions also

It will be pertinent to mention that only because of efforts and pursuance of AIGETOA, this case reached to this stage else some groups left no stone unturned to delay the process. Very soon we will achieve the breakthrough in other cases also.

Hearing on AO to CAO Promotions was held at Hon’ble Chandigarh CAT today. Strong arguments took place wherein both the sides presented their arguments. Pleading from the applicants side happened and counter arguments were done by BSNL Senior Advocate. The hearing remains inconclusive today and shall continue tomorrow also. Team AIGETOA was present in the court during the whole proceedings.

We extend our thanks to BSNL management for accepting the AIGETOA request for continuing with the same Senior advocate from the Supreme Court who was earlier presenting the case. In the Last Scheduled Hearing, Senior Counsel Late Shri R D Agarwala was also appointed to present the case but due to his sudden demise, the hearing couldn’t happen. Thereafter, the AIGETOA team pursued Management to continue with the Sr Advocate Shri Chauhan who was representing the case earlier. We expect the conclusive arguments tomorrow and a positive breakthrough so that AO to CAO Promotions can take place immediately. This will also result in execution of Similar number of Promotions from JAO to AO grade as per the formula given by AIGETOA to management earlier.
