Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Onam Greetings to you and your family!
Onam is traditionally a harvest festival of Kerala and is a moment of nostalgia for every Keralaite. The 10 day colourful festival culminating with Thiruvonam is undoubtedly an event that unites the diverse Kerala society and its vast Diaspora overseas.
On this festive occasion, AIGETOA Kerala extend our warm wishes to entire BSNL fraternity in Kerala and their family members. May you all be blessed with happiness and prosperity in life. Wishing you lots of good fortune and accomplishment. May your life be as colourful as the colour of Onam.
For AIGETOA Kerala, this Onam is sweeter because it comes immediately after AIGETOA is designated as Recognised Majority Representative Association in BSNL. It is a cheerful culmination of years of dedicated team work and systematic hard work for Team AIGETOA. We once again congratulate all those warriors and flag bearers of AIGETOA Kerala who worked against odds to make this dream a reality. However we are aware that we can’t be in oblivion to the fact that this recognition tag has shouldered enormous responsibility on us to represent the entire BSNL executive fraternity in Kerala in an equitable manner. We shall not disappoint our well wishers in this regard.
Kerala circle is always a top performer and a front runner in BSNL in terms of performance. Despite its moderate geographical size out of the 11 SSAs in Kerala, 1 SSA is made as “Very Large BA”, 6 SSAs are made as “Large BA” and 4 SSAs are made as “Medium BA” in latest consolidation and rationalization of work guidelines issued by BSNL. It is an indication of the importance Kerala circle plays in BSNL revenue and performance. Further outsourcing guidelines introduced by BSNL CO after VRS has entrusted a new challenge for BSNL –i.e the need for reach out, motivation and managing our partners for a mutually beneficial relationship. It is in addition to the traditional challenges in Sales and Marketing, Procurement and vendor management, Workforce and customer management etc. Let us hope Onam 2020 induces a new vigour and vitality to BSNL & BSNL Kerala in these directions and it will to continue to be a beacon light and torch bearer.
Not to mention, Covid-19 pandemic has indeed cast a shadow over Onam celebrations 2020. We need to be responsible citizens at this critical juncture and careful in following social distancing norms and various guidelines issued by authorities. We also need to empathetic to society and receptive to the needs of the less privileged during this pandemic. Let us pledge to remain vigilant, alert and humane amid these festivities during a pandemic.
Thanks and Regards,
Team AIGETOA Kerala.
