Shri Prashant Gaurav, SDE, 2008 batch clarifies the air with respect to the AIGETOA’s efforts. He firmly emphasises that it’s only the AIGETOA which can resolve the issue. He explains the reasons of non resolution till date and explains the future roadmap.
For resolution of the Pay Loss Issue, Join AIGETOA.
GS AIGETOA writes to CMD BSNL regarding discrepancy observed in various executives in First Time bound promotion between 4-6 years and request to consider implementing the proposal of uniform 1st Time Bound Promotion in 4 years to all executives.
This disparity has resulted into heart burn and disparity in Pay amongst many of the JTOs recruited by BSNL/Absorbed from DoT. This disparity in first time bound promotion shall be affecting the newly Recruited/Promoted JTOs/JAOs as they will be getting their First Time Bound Up-gradation in 6 years owing to their initial basic scale being fixed in E1 scale. They are already demotivated and disappointed owing to the extremely meagre salary and less initial basic which is largely visible in the form of extremely high percentage of churn out from the newly recruited batches, now extending first TBP in 6 years will be like sprinkling salt on already inflicted injuries.
