Clearance of Inter BA Request Transfers & Processing of Long stay list

Details

Published Date

Even though this association was assured by circle management that transparency will be ensured in the case of processing transfer requests and other related matters, the recent lethargic attitude from circle office HR section is dubious. At one end the various assurances to the recognised association after the agenda meeting held on 28/9/20 is kept pending and on other end selective clearances are being made.

It is learnt that the Kerala counter part of one particular association who has failed to stop the forthcoming DPC promotions of JTO to SDE, are now vouching for inter BA displacement of executives at the time of promotion instead of effecting the same from long stay.

The shameless plan plotted by a proclaimed leader at the far end of service especially against the interests of BSNL recruited executives cannot be accepted by AIGETOA and we will strive to ensure that justified transparent methods are adopted in inter BA transfers. We requested the circle administration to effect the pending request transfers and other assurances inline with the last agenda meeting.

Posting of DGM(adhoc) to Malappuram BA entrusted with the charge of BA head by violation of rules and guidelines

Details

Published Date

It is seen that a DGM(adhoc) from Ernakulam BA with 8 month of service as DGM(adhoc) & the Circle President of an association is posted at Malappuram BA and entrusted with the charge of BA head. Earlier We had requested for removal of this executive from DGM Rural incharge for a series of violation of rules and misutilisation of official capacity which is already under enquiry. This DGM(adhoc) who has left with  five month of service to superannuation is given such role,  ignoring  the regular DGMs available with longer service span.

The allocation of sensitive post like BA head to a Circle president of an association is flouting of existing norms and we have represented the matter with CGMT Kerala circle. Click here for the letter. When the proclaimed leaders of that association are against promotions of BSNL Recruited employees and advocate for even denial of LA arrangement's till regular promotions to executives, it will be a surprise to see for additional charge acceptance by their own proclaimed leaders.

Further we requested cancellation of this order and submitted that either a regular GM should be posted as BA head or at least regular DGM  should be given charge. Posting circle president of an association to sensitive posts cannot be accepted as it will lead to conflict of interests and is against norms.

Dear Colleagues,

The minutes of the meeting held between circle management and Recognised Association AIGETOA on 28/09/2020 is published.

Click here for the minutes issued

We reaffirm our commitment that the changes of electing AIGETOA as the recognised association will be visible. While erstwhile associations in BSNL have always shied away from publishing the minutes of their meeting with management for obvious reasons, We are determined to make it a regular feature and enable ourselves as a platform for smooth exchange of ideas between Management and executives with transparency.

Some measures mentioned in agenda meeting are already done by management like publishing of intra BA stay particulars in JTO/SDE/AGM cadres, taking up the matters with corporate office wrt categorisation of BAs, requirement of GMs, and diversion of batteries to Kannur, Thrissur and review of empannelled hospitals etc. we hope that the remaining points will also be cleared one by one, by management as assured.

Violation on BSNL guidelines & Misutilization of official capacity by DGM BSS / Transmission & Rural , Ernakulam BA

Details

Published Date

It is seen that DGM(adhoc) who is handling the charge of DGM BB/Transmission & Rural in Ernakulam BA reportedly violated various guidelines and norms prevailing in BSNL. Some incidents with prejudiced or biased approach by this DGM are reported through mis-utilization of official capacity. AIGETOA Ernakulam has reached out to PGMT, Ernakulam BA seeking an impartial enquiry on these matters.

AIGETOA condemn such immature acts from a senior executive and is committed to protect the BSNL executives from nepotistic regime furthered by few such narrow minded people in violation of rules to retain their writ and authority over executive fraternity which in turn affect the conducive working atmosphere within organisation.

The Ill Intentions are out - Decision left with the wisdom of executives

Even though not astonishing, it is pathetic to see that the egoistic leaders of  one association are again coming out with flimsy grounds to create smoke to  support their motto that No DPC promotions for BSNL Recruits. We still can’t understand the rationale behind their heinous thoughts and how the members of the so called association stand up with these leaders further more. This vested element’s misguidance landed executives & management into trouble.  Now through AIGETOAs single effort, all is going to be cleared along with the promotions.  Since DPC formalities are getting ready and sufficient vacancies are already available to include eligible JTOs, we are sure that the present stalemate will go once the promotions are executed. It may be noted that the next AIEL particulars are also called for , which include BR JTOs till YOR 2012.

It is a fact that after the final verdict  from Hon HC Kerala on 05-06-2018 where  there was no ambiguity at all, these people mis leaded management through wrong interpretations , that there is confusion on DoJ and training center marks.  They simply hide the fact that the promotions done on 15-06-2018 for 3139 absorbed executives also, placed with training centre marks as intra seniority.  Further the  SNEA activists filed RPs along with  others which  delayed the justified promotions of  BSNL Recruits. They preached through website and other modes that to publish the eligibility lists, RP ( which they only have filed)  should be favourable etc etc many theories. The RPs dismissed on 24-08-2020 to the fact that there was no merit on the contentions raised by petitioners and there’s no ambiguity on Hon High Court verdict - and thus paved the way for publishing of AIEL and expectedly much awaited DPC promotions. The review filed by them were planned unnecessarily  to confuse on  Date of  joining Vs training center marks and supported back dated YOR occupancy. AIGETOA from the starting itself was telling there is no ambiguity in the Hon HC verdict which dealt only with Inter seniority ( ie 1:1 ) and  Intra Seniority was not at all a matter of dispute. If this was accepted by the so called proclaimed ones, then the promotions could have executed on June-2018. Now this crocodile association leaders says that 1:1 need to be implemented- had they took this stand on 2011-12 without creating legal blocks by fielding against BSNL recruits, then 2001 and subsequent BR batches would have got SCF promotions from the year 2012/13 onwards.  But unfortunately the same was dragged by them into such a level,  especially by one vested proclaimed leader  which  made the precious service years of  BSNL recruits at loss. It is known to all that this person who is with more than 35 years of service from Kerala is one of the main  hand behind this entire  conspiracy. His egoistic attitude and vested interests delayed the career progression of  BSNL recruited executives to such dismay and  It is very sad to see that  on fag end of service he still continue to work against BSNL recruits in whatever way he can.

We are not specifically mentioning the deeds of that association, just go through their web updates ( 2012 -2020 ), if not masked  , which will tell the real story with respect to their earlier stand and claims wrt AIEL & SCF promotions. It is really condemnable that these vested minds again trying to stall the career progression of executives at this belated stage. While AIGETOA’s efforts  for executing the promotions to all eligible JTO batches through DPCs and LDCEs ,  are getting expedited, it is a fact that the so called proclaimed association will not have further say in front of executives to justify their misdeeds. Similarly their stand on List-8 promotions, List-9 &  further finalisation also not known.?? Now when the promotions are visible whereby all circles have sufficient vacancies for accommodating the new SDEs, same may be allowed in their respective circles as and where basis is the request from AIGETOA. AIGETOA call for good sense to them and should shed their egoistic attitude and work for executives at least by now.

AIEL Published

Congratulations !! As assured to AIGETOA, the AIEL has been published. The AIEL upto RY 2008 has been prepared and placed in Intranet for omissions and corrections. There were many hurdles and hurdle creators for the process but finally the truth has won. The court case which was being touted by some as reasons for delay has enabled to take the issue to this level by sorting out the ambiguities in the whole process.

Now the preparatory process for DPC will start to fill up the available vacancies and AIGETOAs endeavour will be to get this process completed as early as possible. In the meanwhile, we have pursued and convinced HR section for starting the preparatory process for further batches. The letter for calling the eligibility particulars for further batches is also being issued.

We are also pursuing for notification of next LDCEs. We hope for early resolution of the LDCE issue. We are on the work for promotions in other cadres. AIGETOA requests all to have patience and not to fall into the trap of those spreading false information and confusion. AIGETOA assures that interest of every executive shall be protected and no body should feel that they will be left out.
