30-03-2017:- United Forum…..E1A-E2A…

29.03.2017: Protest against lowering of  equivalent cadres:United Forum of BSNL Executives Associations AIBSNLEA, AIGETOA & AITEEA strongly protest against the notification of DoT OM dated 28.03.2017 wherein payscales of JTO/JAO, SDE/AO & equivalent cadres have been lowered arbitrarily, which will seriously demoralize & de-motivate  the executives in BSNL. We express our strong resentment against the DoT decision & failure of BSNL Management in this regard.

United Forum of Executives Associations will shortly finalize the protest actions against such demoralizing act of DoT / BSNL.

It is unfortunate that the matter has been mis-handled by some executives Associations by giving a call of agitation & withdrawing without any fruitful outcome. It has strengthen DoT to ignore the protest of BSNL Executives. The fact remains that efforts were taken by the same executive associations to sabotage the outgoing agitation call given by United Forum of BSNL Executives Associations in the month of Dec., 2016 and Jan., 2017 and they impressed upon the BSNL Management to victimize the CHQ/Circle/Distt. level office bearers of United Forum by issuing the memorandum & deduction of salary for two days i.e. 27th & 28th Dec., 2016 for participating in Dharna programme. These actions has strengthen the BSNL/DoT management to conveniently ignore the genuine grievances of executives in BSNL.

Hence, United Forum has to decide its own course of actions to protest the interest of entire BSNL Executives community rather coming under the trap of so called executive associations to further damage the interest of executives of BSNL.

Let us decide & keep ready for the conclusive struggle to show the strength of executives in achieving the settlement of legitimate demands.

DoT issued Presidential order dated 28.03.2017 for E1A and E2A  pay scales for JTOs, SDEs and equivalent cadres <<<Click here for order>>>>>

09-03-2017 Combined march by Unions and Associations

     CS attended the combined Demonstration of BSNL Unions and Associations on 09-03-2017 at Flower Bazar Exchange. CS gave a fabulous speech on the reasons of deterioration of BSNL.  

       Our Services are majorly concentrated across the villages of India, focussing on the service not on the profit.Other private sector companies are focusing only on the profit and giving services in urban areas only. During 2006, BSNL had a revenue of Rs.40,000/- Crores and a profit in the range of Rs.8000/- to Rs.10,000/- crores. In 2010, it met with loss for the first time in history. In between, in 2007, RS.450 Lk Tender for development of GSM /Procurement of Equipments was cancelled and in 2009, Rs.930 Lakh Tender was cancelled. Due to this we were unable to compete with other Telecom companies in terms of technology.

        No development activities are done from 2007 in BSNL. Overseas Communication Services were also taken from BSNL.  At Chennai, Uttarakhand and J&K when flood came BSNL was the only telecom company to give timely service to its customers, with least disturbance.

       After BSNL was formed in 2000, around 1.5Lakhs Employees retired and only 30,000 employees were recruited.  

            Presently talks are about Huge loss of MTNL and how to dispose MTNL. On one side plans are for how to merge loss making PSU MTNL with BSNL. On the other side it is planned to form a new Tower company by taking over 61000 towers out of 75000 BSNL Towers.Slowly the hidden agenda of bringing BSNL to sick PSU list is carried out and it has evidently come out now.

It is underlined that until Unity of BSNL Associations and Unions is there, none of these hidden agenda are going to be happened in BSNL.

Members of AIBSNLEA attended in the demonstration in large number.

Glimpses:
