Secretary DoT appreciated our concerned & directed DoT officers to release minutes of this meeting and thereafter item wise discussion is started as follows :- 01. Improvement in the Executives Promotion Policy of BSNL (a) No parallel Post based promotion: - AIBSNLEA provided the documents related to calling of option for absorption from Group ‘B’ Officers in BSNL vide SR Cell letter no. BSNL/11/SR/2003 dated 2nd Sept’2003; wherein promotion avenues were assured non post base time bound promotion upto the level of SG-JAG Level. Thereafter, only the post based promotions would have to take place but now the post based promotions have been introduced. Secretary DoT, Member (F) & Member (S) studied the letter carefully.
(b) No recruitment of Management Trainees at STS level: - AIBSNLEA strongly protested against introduction of Management Trainees at STS level. Demanded the following ratio:- Seniority quota- 80%, Internal Candidates- 15%, External Candidates- 5% (This is to insure that outside recruitment is restricted within manageable limit, so that their smooth carrier growth can be ensured).
(c) Weightage for past services rendered in DoT/DTS/DTO for promotion:- AIBSNLEA strongly demanded granting full weightage for the service rendered in DoT/DTS/DTO prior to 01.10.2000 for promotion irrespective of its mode i.e. Time bound upto JAG selection Grade or Post based promotion beyond SG JAG. After allowing first time bound promotion the service rendered in excess of eligibility criteria in the post held prior to 01.10.2000, a weightage of 50% of each year of service be given for next promotion.
(d) First upgradation to the next higher grade: - AIBSNLEA strongly demanded the First upgradation to the next higher grade on completion of 4 years of service in all cases instead of 4 to 6 years of service.
(e) Grant of designations and duties/responsibilities associated with the respective grade: - The designation of the executives in BSNL must follow the CPSU pattern. This to ensure total mental integration of the executives & avoid the divide based on different designations of the executives in the same IDA pay scales. Retention of designations as in government comes in the way of identifying one with the company & adopting the PSU work culture. The designations must be changed as proposed by AIBSNLEA earlier. (f) Attendant conditions for promotion: - AIBSNLEA demanded modification in the attended conditions decided in the promotion policy based on the grading is harsher than the marks based system. 02. Relaxation in residency period from 12 years to 5 years to SDEs (Telecom) for granting the Sr. SDE grade on 01.10.2000: - AIBSNLEA strongly demanded as per DoT agreement and commitment of BSNL at the time of absorption of Group B officers in BSNL on 01.10.2000, the SDEs, who completed 5 years of regular service would be provided one time placement in the Sr. SDE grade. 03. Regularization of STS Group ‘A’ officers promoted on ad-hoc basis and absorbed in BSNL: -AIBSNLEA requested Secretary DoT to recall the discussions had in the formal meeting on 10.01.2007, wherein the BSNL management was directed to regularize all STS Group A officers promoted on ad-hoc basis & absorbed in BSNL in all disciplines except in Telecom Engineering Wing, where the Group A officers absorption process is yet to be completed.. BSNL management was also advised that in Telecom Engineering wing, to regularize absorbed Group ‘A’ officers case may be processed separately to DoT for approval. Till date BSNL management has not taken any action in the matter. This has caused serious frustration. 04. Filling up of vacant STS posts of Group A on Ad-hoc promotion basis: - AIBSNLEA vehemently demanded to fill up about 2315 vacant STS of Group A posts in Telecom Engineering on ad-hoc promotion basis and all vacant STS posts in various disciplines from the eligible Group ‘B’ level officers. DoT has already given clearance to BSNL management to fill up all STS group A posts in BSNL. Now the BSNL management on the pretext of various court cases is not holding the DPC particularly to fill up the vacant 2315 DE (Telecom) posts. Whereas, no court judgment prevents BSNL to hold DPC.
In the above items after having detailed discussions, Secretary DoT assured that the cases will be looked into & decision will be taken after discussion with BSNL Management.
05. Absorption of Group ‘A’ officers in BSNL: - AIBSNLEA strongly demanded to complete the process of absorption of group ‘A’ officers in BSNL. We express our serious resentment against the approach of government advocate for taking adjournments. Secy DoT informed that the matter is well-known to him and sincere efforts are being made to complete the absorption process of Group ‘A’ officers.
06. Payment of Pension to BSNL employees: - AIBSNLEA vehemently protested against the DoT letter dated 15.06.2006 & demanded its immediate withdrawal. Secy DoT informed that Telecom Commission has already discussed the matter and now will be taken up with the Cabinet. 07. Fixation of AAOs pay scale: - We thanked to Secretary DoT & Member (F) for getting approved the case from Ministry of Finance & requested for issuing necessary instructions to BSNL for early implementation. Secy DoT assured an early action. 08. Extending the benefits of deferred options in CDA Pay scales to BSNL employees: - Secretary DoT informed that he is fully aware of the case & the case has already been referred to DPE. 09. Providing 5 years Service benefit to BSNL employees who are opting voluntary retirement: - Secretary DoT informed that he is fully aware of the case & the case has already been referred to DoP&T. 02-08-2007=>1) RETIREMENT ON

07/02/2007 GS, President and AGS (Civil) met Sr. DDG (Estt) and discussed: i. Clarification on implementation of Executives’ Promotion Policy: We discussed some clarifications being raised by circles regarding Executives who are promoted during 01.10.2000 to 01.10.2004 on ad-hoc/regular basis or under DoT time bound promotion schemes. Sr. DDG (Estt) clarified that there are two aspects of promotion policy – one time bound and other post based. For the Executives who have got time bound promotions on or before 01.10.2004 based on earlier time bound promotion policies, such upgradation will be granted to the executives on the basis of options as ONE TIME RELAXATION. In case of post based promotions first financial upgradation will be given as per para 3.1 i.e. the first upgradation of IDA scale of individual Executive will be due for consideration on completion of 4 (four) years of service in the current IDA scale subject to the condition that the Executives’ basic pay in the current IDA scale has crossed/touched the lowest of the higher IDA scale for which his/her upgradation is to be considered OR he/she has completed 6(six) years of service in the current IDA scale, whichever is earlier. ii. Date of effect of implementation of revised IDA Pay-scales for the Executives with effect from 01.10.2000: Sr. DDG (Estt) informed that Dr. Vinay Shahi Committee report on the issue is being examined and soon it will be sent to EF section for concurrence. Thereafter it will be placed before the Board for approval. We re-iterated our demand to implement the pay scales w.e.f. 01.10.2000 with actual benefits. iii. One time placement of the SDEs in the Sr. SDE grade: We re-iterated early settlement of our demand. Sr. DDG (Estt) suggested to take up the matter afresh with comparative statement of Executives pay fixation on 01.10.2000 and data relating to eligible SDEs through DDG (Pers) who is dealing with Executives’ Promotion Policy. iv. Change in Attendant conditions etc.: We expressed our dissatisfaction against introduction of grading system to assess the fitness of eligibility for financial upgradation as well as post based promotion which is harsher than the ACRs grading as available in DoT e.g. one executive during 5 years earns two excellent entry and three average entry, ACR marks will be (20+20+8+8+8 = 64) will be dropped whereas in earlier criterion the executives who was getting 56 marks was to be promoted. In this manner earning excellent/outstanding entry will have no significance. Sr. DDG (Estt) appreciated our feelings. v. Filling up of vacant JTO posts: Sr. DDG (Estt) informed that the process for filling up about 846 JTO posts through Direct Recruitment has been initiated. vi.

06/02/2007 GS, President and AGS (Civil) met Director (HRD) and discussed: A) i. Delay in implementation of Executives’ Promotion Policy in Circles and BSNL Corporate Office: We informed Director (HRD) that no initiative has been taken for implementation of Executives’ Promotion Policy in many circles and BSNL Corporate Office for want of certain clarifications. Director (HRD) assured that necessary instructions will further be issued to all concerned for immediate implementation. ii. Date of effect of implementation of revised IDA Pay-scales for the Executives with effect from 01.10.2000: We impressed upon for immediate action. Director(HRD) assured to instruct the establishment branch of Corporate Office to process the case based on Dr. Vinay Shahi Committee recommendations. iii. One time placement of the SDEs in the Sr. SDE grade: We re-iterated early settlement of our demand. Director (HRD) informed that since the issue was not the part of the terms and conditions of the service of executives in BSNL thereby could not be incorporated in the BSNL Executives’ Promotion Policy. Now Association can provide comparative statement of Executives pay fixation on 01.10.2000 and data relating to eligible SDEs for taking a view in this matter. iv. Recruitment Rules for Group A equivalent grades: We impressed upon that while finalising the RRs for Group A equivalent Executive Grades in BSNL, the views of the Association should also be considered. v.

He assured that one separate meeting will soon be conducted between AIBSNLEA and the officers dealing with the matter.

19/01/2007 The implementation order for BSNL
Executives’ Promotion Policy has been issued on 18.01.2007 with the
persistent and untiring efforts of AIBSNLEA for last one year. The same was
not being implemented because Shri. Y. S. Bhave Ex. AST, DoT committee
delayed review of the Policy upto Sept. 2006(for 10 months) and further got
delayed in BSNL/DoT upto 18th Jan’2007 for last four months in
implementation. During the period we submitted suggestions / views to the
Chairman & Members of the Committee for the improvement in writing as
well as discussions in the several informal / formal meetings. Our persistent
efforts & persuasion, mounted pressure through organisational actions
programmes in September-2006. Though the Executives’ Promotion Policy
implementation order has been issued but not in the sprit as it was assured
to Executives’ before their absorption in BSNL. The issues of importance i.e.
implementation of revised / upgraded pay scales w.e.f. 01/10/2000, one time
placement of SDE to Sr. SDE grade, service weightage, MT recruitment at
JTO/JAO level, change of designation & duties related to the grades etc
are yet to be settled by BSNL. In this manner our apprehension that DoT will not do much to the promotion Policy as decided by BSNL Board has become true, had the BSNL been allowed to implement the Promotion Policy in Oct'2005 as approved by BSNL Board by this time the process for settlement of deficiencies in the promotion Policy could have been in advance stage. All the Circle/ Branch Secretaries are requested to discuss the Executives’ Promotion Policy and give their opinion to CHQ at the earliest, so that further course of action may be decided. |

10/01/2007 GS, AGS (Civil/Elect), FS and AFS attended agenda meeting called by Secretary Telecom to discuss the various issues raised by the Association. Secretary (DOT), Member (Services), Member(T), Member (Fin), Advisors, Sr. DDG(SR), DDG(Estt) ,DDG(FEB), DDG(Elect) and other Sr. officers attended the meeting. CMD, Dir(HRD), Sr.DDG(Estt), DDG(Pers) and DDG(SR) were present from BSNL side. Comrade GS extended thanks to Secretary, DOT for approving the BSNL Executives’ Promotion Policy and sending to BSNL for its implementation. He also impressed upon for improvement in the promotion policy as assured to Group ‘B’ officers at the time of their absorption in BSNL. The brief of discussion is as follows: Association. (1) Promotion policy for BSNL Executives- no deviation acceptable from the policy that was offered in the terms and conditions of service for absorption of the Group B officers: - (a) No parallel post based promotion:-The promotion policy has to be based entirely on the concept of non-post based promotion up to JAG Selection Grade as envisaged in the Policy that was offered in the ‘Terms and condition of services’ while calling of option from Group ’B’ officers for their absorption in BSNL. Reply: The Secy, DOT stated that let the promotion policy be first implemented and thereafter this issue will be considered in due course of time. He also informed that with implementation of this promotion policy one executive will get at least five time bound promotions which were not available to many of them in DOT set up. The officers will have better promotional avenues in terms of their regular promotions in STS/JAG and even at SAG level after implementation of promotion policy in BSNL. Director (HRD) informed that BSNL will issue necessary order for implementation of BSNL Executives’ Promotion Policy approved by DoT within one or two days. (b) No recruitment of Management Trainees at STS Level:- There should not be any recruitment of management trainees at STSlevel. Since the promotion policy that was offered did not provide for the same. However , the recruitment of management trainees may be done at the level of JTOs/JAOs as being done in MTNL. Reply: CMD, BSNL informed that earlier also in DOT set up, two entry gates were in existence at JTO and JTS level. BSNL intends to recruit the personnel at JTO and STS level considering the operational requirement in the changed competitive environment. (c) Weightage for past services rendered in DOT/ DTS/ DTO for promotion:- Full weightage for past services rendered in DOT/ DTS/ DTO has to be given to the absorbed executives for promotion in BSNL. Otherwise, seniors with long years of service will be equated with the late entrants giving rise to serious and genuine heartburn. Reply: Director (HRD) stated that service weightage has been compensated by way of giving point to point pay fixation in IDA scales at the time of absorption which is not available in any other PSU. We did not agree with him. Then Secy., DOT intervened and directed CMD, BSNL to have separate discussion with the Association in this regard. (d) First upgradation to the next higher scale:- The first upgradation to the next higher grade should be allowed on completion of 4 years of service in all cases instead of proposed 4 to 6 years of service. Reply: CMD, BSNL stated that first upgradation to next higher grade is allowed on completion of 4 to 6 years of service in view of providing the weightage to seniors. He also mentioned that during first upgradation, even after six year of service, juniors will be benefited suitably. We insisted on our above demand of giving promotion to all on completion of 4 years service only. (e) Grant of designations and duties/ responsibilities associated with the respective grade:- On each upgradation to the next higher grade, the designation and the duties/ responsibilities associated with the grade should also be allowed. Reply: Secretary, DoT directed CMD, BSNL to have separate discussion in the matter and in due course of time improvements can be made. (f) Attendant condition for promotion:- Whatever may be the marks in the Confidential Reports decided to be cut off marks for promotion, the droppings must be below 4 % since during several discussion on this issue the concerned senior officers in the BSNL had stressed that even with 50% marks applied with the grading the last DPC held for promotion from JTOs to SDEs, the droppings have been found to be far below 4 %. Reply: CMD, BSNL informed that attendant conditions for promotion have been relaxed and confidential report, cut off marks are decided in the manner where droppings will be far below 4%. 02. Date of effect of Implementation of revised IDA Pay Scales for the Executives w.e.f. 1-10-2000:- Date of effect of Implementation of revised IDA Pay Scales for JTOs/SDEs of Civil/Electrical/Architecture/TFs and Assistants, SOs of CSS and JAOs etc. of finance wing of BSNL, including the proposed revised IDA pay scale of the Official Language officers shall be 01.10.2000 with actual benefit. Reply: CMD, BSNL informed that committee report on the issue has been received and will be discussed and considered in BSNL Board shortly. 03. One time placement of the SDEs in the Sr. SDEs grade:- As per DOT agreement and commitment of BSNL at the time of absorption of Group ‘B’ officers in BSNL on 01.10.2000, the SDEs who completed 5 years of regular service would be provided one time placement in the Sr. SDE grade. Approximately, 8,000 SDEs Telecom are to be given one time placement in the grade of Sr. SDEs in BSNL (i.e. 400 against 1990 DPC, 800 from 1993 DPC and about 6800 from 1994 DPCs were promoted). Since the above SDEs had already completed 6 to 10 years of services as on 01.10.2000 and they have crossed the initial pay scale of Sr. SDE i.e. Rs.13000/ on that day. Keeping this in view, the committee may recommend to provide the benefit of one time placement in the Sr. SDEs grade. Negligible financial implication will cause to BSNL at the time of implementation of the above said policy. In this regard we have already provided the data / information to the members of the committee. Reply: CMD, BSNL informed that the issue has been considered by Shri Y.S.Bhave committee, but the decision has been left on BSNL Board. The CMD, BSNL assured that the issue will be considered in BSNL Board. 04. Payment of pension to BSNL Employees:- The employee of BSNL are frustrated and feeling insecure over the DOT letter Dated 15-06-2006 and concerned about the payment of their pension after their retirement. The DOT letter dated 15-06-2006 creates apprehension about payment of pension to retired employees in case of BSNL suffering loss and thus unable to bear the additional amount as demanded by the DOT. The parameters mentioned in the letter are variable and cannot be linked to payment to pension under any circumstances. In view of the above, the above said letter dated 15-06-2006 should immediately be withdrawn. Reply: Secretary, DoT assured that DOT letter dated 15.6.2006, was issued to CMD, BSNL in accordance with Cabinet decision. The Association demanded that the issue of payment of pension to BSNL employees should be made by Government without linking the same to revenue receipts from BSNL. BSNL should pay only pension contribution as per FR-116 and there is no justification for demanding additional money from BSNL. We further stated that at the time of finalisation of pay scales for BSNL employees ,the unions/associations had agreed for lower pay scales than MTNL only on the consideration of payment of pension by the Govt. The Ch.TC assured that after getting the feedback from BSNL and AIBSNLEA, the proposal for payment of pension from Government fund and to delinking it from BSNL receipts will be prepared and send to the Cabinet for its reconsideration . 05. Absorption of Group ‘A’ officers in BSNL: - The absorption issue of Group 'A' officers in BSNL / MTNL is yet to be resolved.. It seems that ITS officers’ Association opposition will continue as the demands of ITSA remains unsettled. We have been requesting to the DOT administration to settle the issue at the earliest so that viability of BSNL is not affected adversely. Presently the ITS officers are not concentrating towards developmental and maintenance work. As a result, a serious stalemate has been created which needs to be sorted out immediately since it is affecting BSNL / MTNL and its employees. Reply: Member (Services) stated that matter is sub-Judice and decision is awaited. The Secretary, DoT intervened and informed that already matter has been discussed with representatives of ITSA and discussions are at final stage and some solution will come soon. We further impressed upon that deemed deputation/deputation should not be allowed further in BSNL or all the Group B officers already absorbed in BSNL may also be reverted back to DoT. 06. Regularisation of adhoc DEs/CAOs/EEs/ADGs(CS) : After absorption of Group B officers in BSNL, the recruitment rules incorporating the methodology of promotions should have been framed by BSNL. Since this is likely to take some time for Group A, in accordance with OM dated 4.10.2005, the Government RRs would mu-ta-tis mut-andis shall apply for effecting promotions. Depending upon the vacancies arising from time to time, BSNL should constitute DPC for considering the cases of regularisation of absorbed officers. We would therefore request you to direct BSNL management for regularisation of all adhoc DEs/CAOs/EEs/ADG(CSS).w.e.f 1.10.2000 since all these officers are holding post on adhoc basis prior to that date. Reply: CMD, BSNL informed that in Civil, Electrical and other disciplines where absorption process is compete, the regularization will be taken up as per DoT RRs and simultaneously the RRs of executives in Group A will be finalised soon. We impressed upon filing up the vacant JAG/SAG/HAG posts of BSNL through BSNL optees immediately. Secretary, DoT directed the CMD, BSNL to take immediate action to fill up the vacant posts of JAG/SAG/HAG on regular basis In BSNL where the absorption process is over. In case of telecom disciplines, BSNL Management will put up the case to DoT for necessary instructions. He also assured for issuing early instructions to fill up all vacant posts of telecom. discipline. 07. Non-integration of HR functions in BSNL:- BSNL is still continuing with the HR activities as in DOT and not bringing the entire HR activities under a common umbrella. Though the KPMG- HR consultants engaged by BSNL had also recommended for integration, BSNL is yet to accept and implement the same. Reply: CMD, BSNL informed that action has been initiated to bring entire HR activities under a common umbrella. Secretary, DoT directed to CMD, BSNL to take immediate action in the matter. 08. Withdrawal of AAOs pay scale i.e. Rs 7450-225-11500/- Ministry of Finance while agreeing to grant the pay scale of Rs 7450-225-11500 w.e.f. 1.1.1996 excluded the AAOs absorbed in BSNL w.e.f 1.10.2000 from the purview of that upgradation order. The AAOs working under DoT as on 1.1.1996 were part of organised accounts cadre and therefore should not have been excluded from giving benefits of upgraded pay scale. Reply: The Member (Services) stated that the matter is subjudice. The Association stated that after implementation of upgraded pay scales for CSS personnel and the Jr. Accountants & Sr. Accountants w.e.f. 1.1.96, there is no justification for denial of similar benefits to JAO/AAO. The up-gradation of pay scale of Sr. Accountants to Rs.5500-200-9000 will be quite anomalous vis-à-vis Jr. Accounts Officer as the supervised and supervisor will be drawing the same pay scale. Secretary DoT after getting convinced with our pleading in the matter assured that the case will be taken up Ministry of Finance. 09. Implementation of upgraded pay scale for CSS staff in BSNL:- The orders for upgradation of pay scales of CSS staff wef 01-01-1996 should be implemented immediately as endorsed by DOT and regularization of section officers working on Adhoc basis in BSNL against the regular posts intimated by DOT. Reply: CMD, BSNL stated that BSNL Board has already approved the matter and action is being taken for implementation of DoT order. We extended our thanks to Secretary, DoT and CMD, BSNL. 10. Review of grant of 2nd ACP in Civil wing-notice regarding. Withdrawal.- DoT vide letter dated 3-1/2000-CWG dated 8.11.2006 has arbitrarily decided to review all cases of officers granted the benefit of 2nd financial upgradation under ACP scheme and to take necessary action to withdraw the same from such executives who were granted 2nd ACP but were not eligible as per 1994 RRs. i.e. diploma holders AEs. The diploma holder JEs were assured through recruitment notice that they will be promoted as AE (Civil) and that further promotional avenues to the higher posts are also available. Reply: The Member (Technology) stated that since the RRs of EE(Civil) were finalised in the year of 1994, can not be modified after 12 years retrospectively, we argued with the supporting documents and insisted upon to withdraw above said orders dated 8.11.2006 and suggested to give one time relaxation in the matter. Secretary, DoT directed DDG(Electrical), DoT to have separate discussion with AIBSNLEA in the presence of Sr. DDG(SR) and DDG (Establishment), DoT immediately and review the case. Member (Services) asked clarification from BSNL regarding future promotion Policy of JTO(Civil)/SDE(Civil)(Diploma Holders to the Post of Executive Engineer.CMD BSNL Informed the RRs of EE(Civil) are not yet finislised.Secretary,DOT intervene in the matter and clarified that BSNL may decide its own RRs for EE (Civil) not similar to DOT RRs of EE (Civil). 11. Withdrawal of pay fixation benefits under FR 22(1)(a)(1) to JTOs and SDEs on their vertical promotion after lateral advancement. Reply; Secretary, DoT stated that necessary clarification has already been issued to all the CCAs for not implementing the order with retrospective effect. We thanked Secretary, DoT for his kind intervention. 12. Recovery of pay/pension due to continuance of adhoc promotion to DE/CAO beyond one year without reversion by CCA, Gujarat- CCA, Gujarat has issued order for review of pension cases of adhoc Des/CAOs, as per their pay in substantive grade excluding adhoc promotion where such promotion continues one year. The adhoc promotion in the grade of DE/CAO is continuing beyond one year due to administrative reasons. And should not come in the way of pension fixation. The pension rules clearly stipulates that the pension is to be calculated on the basis of average emoluments drawn by the employees .over the last ten months. Executives are feeling harassed. Reply: The Secretary, DoT informed that issue taken by AIBSNLEA is under consideration and soon the necessary instruction will be issued to CCA, Gujarat in the matter. 13. Restoration of the powers delegated to the CGMs to create posts on temporary / adhoc / regular basis: - In surprising move having far reaching effect. BSNL has withdrawn the powers delegated to the CGMs to create posts on temporary/adhoc/regular basis. In the Corporate culture where the powers are decentralised, it is unbelievable that BSNL will go for concentrating all powers at one place. The decision has caused hindrance in the developmental and operational activities. Therefore, BSNL Management may be directed to restore the powers of CGMs. 14. Non-grant of stagnation increment on annual basis:- BSNL decided to grant one stagnation increment in every two years to those who has reached the maximum of the pay scale in which they are placed. This brings undue hardship to the Executives who have put in long years of service. It may be recalled that the group ‘A’ officers are also of the view that there should be one stagnation increment every year for them. There shall not be different yardsticks for the different DETs of the executives within the same organization. Reply on items 13 & 14: The Secretary, DoT directed CMD, BSNL to discuss the matter with AIBSNLEA and the CMD, BSNL assured to discuss the matter separately with association. 15. Viability of BSNL:- (a) Disinvestments/privatization of BSNL: We are opposing disinvestments in BSNL, since it will ultimately lead to privatization. (b) No increase in FDI beyond 49% in Telecom: We strongly oppose the decision allowing FDI beyond 49% in Telecom. This will help the Foreign Companies to dictate terms and finally have a firm control on Indian Telecom. Its control either directly or indirectly in the hands of Foreign Companies will be against National interest. (c) No reduction in Access Deficit Charges: We are opposing the move to further reduce the ADC to BSNL. Government had committed at the time of formation of BSNL, it will compensate BSNL for providing the rural services at reduced rates. (d) No unbundling of BSNL’s last line copper: BSNL must not be forced to unbundle its last line copper to benefit the Private Operators. BSNL cannot allow use of its last mile copper and maintain the same to help its competitors to run their business. (e) No sharing of BSNL’s infrastructure with Private Operators: We understand that DoT is drafting another National Telecom Policy in which BSNL is being asked to permit Private Operators to share its own infrastructure. We are opposed to this decision. (f) Non-grant of Navratna status to BSNL: At the time of formation of BSNL, the then Minister of Communication Shri Ram Vilas Paswan had announced that in order to give more autonomy to BNSL, it would be granted Navratana status if not the Maharatna. But even after five years of this declaration, BNSL has been granted the Mini-Ratna status. In order to allow BSNL to have greater autonomy in decision making, BSNL must be granted the Navratna status without further delay. (g) Not-expansion of BSNL’s GSM, Broad Band and ILD Services: BSNL should expand its GSM and Broad Band Services looking into tremendous public support and demand. (h) Stopping AMC and outsourcing: BSNL Management’s decision to out source CDR billing and for Annual Maintenance Contracts for the New Technology Switches has became the source for drainage of hard earned revenue. All these days, BSNL’s own employees were successfully carrying out these jobs. Reply: In the
above issues, Secretary, DoT assured that viability of BSNL is also a matter
of concern for DoT. We expressed our anxiety against IMC (Inter
Ministrial Committee) recommendations for not granting of Navratna status to
BSNL and now the matter will be decided at Cabinet Secretary level. The
Secretary, DoT appreciated our feelings and informed that a detailed fresh
report has been prepared in DoT and is being sent to Cabinet Secretary on the
issue. He also assured that he will personally discuss the matter with
Cabinet Secretary. On the issue of stopping AMC and outsourcing, the CMD,
BSNL assured to have separate meeting with AIBSNLEA. At the end, Com. General Secretary thanked the Secretary DoT, CMD, BSNL and other senior officers for showing the positive concern towards settlement of pending grievances of executives in BSNL during discussion. |

i) All STS level officers who have been provided with DELs (STD on need basis) with call limits of 800 mcu per month and GSM Mobile Service Telephone Connection usage worth Rs. 500 per should be provided RSTC (with STD compulsorily as was given earlier in DoT) with a minimum of 1000 MCUs per month and GSM mobile under plan 725 so that the charges per call will be reduced.
ii) All officers of the level equivalent to SDE etc. who have been provided with DEL (STD on need basis) with 600 MCUs per month and GSM usage worth Rs. 500/- should be provided RSTC with a minimum of 1000 MCUs per month and GSM mobile usage worth at least Rs. 800/- under plan 725 as above.

vi) Regarding providing the handset for GSM connection, we demanded that the Bundling of Handset with BSNL SIM plan shall be introduced.

The Association further suggested that the re-imbursement of fixed amount for different level of executives with fixed frequency may be agreed to as is available in case of provision of Brief cases etc. for Executives.
vii) While discussing Broadband connection we demanded that the concessional rent of Rs. 100/- p.m. and the modem rent (Rs. 100/- p.m. as per plan 250) shall be waived and the Broadband connection shall be provided rent free.

No change proposed. |
As proposed by HLC. |
