SNEA, AIGETOA, SEWA BSNL and AIBSNLEA writes to Respected Shri. Jyotiraditya Scindiaji Honourable Minister of Communications and DoNER requesting for kind intervention on Strong Opposition by Associations of BSNL on the Move of BSNL Management for lateral Recruitment of DR DGMs and SETs with false projection as managerial succession plan of BSNL.  Copy<<<>>

All the associations have unitedly conveyed that present move of Management to recruit SET and DR DGMs from market neglecting inhouse talent has created serious concern and resentment among  thousands of serving executives waiting for their due promotions for years together.

It has been categorically brought to notice of office of Respected MOC that BSNL Management is wrongly projecting this proposal as succession plan for replacement of GM/PGM and CGM level officers working in BSNL on deputation as the officers recruited earlier under similar plan are not allowed to reach these positions as the rules are twisted to the extent that any such  officers recruited for the post of GM /PGM level posts will never reach these positions and hence requested for stopping the proposed recruitment of  SET as well as DR DGM by BSNL.

This issue was pursued by GS SNEA and GS DEWAB for last two years with detailed feedback and finally this issue has decided finally in favour of Executives/Employees.

BSNL has signed Memorandum of Understanding with State Bank of India and with Punjab National Bank for Corporate Salary Package for BSNL employees. This MoU is valid for a period of three years from the date of execution.SBI <<<>>  PNB <<<>>

Additionally, BSNL has also signed a separate MoU with SBI and with PNB for Home Loan facility and other Loans at concessional interest rate for BSNL Executives and employees.SBI <<<>>  PNB <<<>>

The Corporate Salary Package under the MoU comes with various benefits viz. Zero balance account for employees and their families, free term insurance, free accidental insurance, free air accidental death insurance, optional family health insurance cover on a payment of very nominal annual premium etc at no cost to executives or employees of BSNL.

Only required on their part is one has to apply for Salary bank account with these banks and all these benefits will be available to them and their family members on selective basis.

We have seen many Executives are not opting for GTI, GHI due to heavy and non-affordable premium and in case of sudden and unfortunate death of executive with no GTI policy, the family members have to face a lot of hardship and difficulties.

Hence, after signing similar MoU by Railways with SBI, SNEA has taken up matter with BSNL Management and with very positive approach Management has come up with supportive step and MOUs are signed with two banks leaving it optional to individual  to decide the bank.

This is good opportunity to each and every executive of BSNL to change/convert  his/her Salary Account either to SBI or PNB and get benefits out of it as these benefits normally available while service in PSUs are not available from BSNL as PSU but the same are available just on having Salary account with SBI and PNB.  

We appreciate efforts of Management for passing on certain benefits to executives in BSNL by signing MoU with different banks making executives eligible for all these benefits.

We appeal to all the executives to go through these MoUs, understand its importance and to shift their salary account to either SBI or PNB as you think fit. We are sharing comparison of benefits by having Salary account at SBI & PNB and its choice to individual to decide the bank. Copy<<<>>

AGM Pers BSNL CO issued modifications in Annual Transfer and Posting Orders of Executives in all wings by giving consideration to the request by individuals on genuine grounds. Copy<<<>>

Since the so called Annual Transfer dated 02/05/2025, this is the third order of modifications giving consideration to the request by individuals on the genuine grounds viz. medical grounds, Immunity as responsible OBs of the Association and by correcting stay particulars by giving due weightage to services rendered at All India Soft Tenure Stations and selective OTP Request Transfers.

Similar requests were given consideration in Modification order dated 30/06/2025, 30/09/2025 but requests of these and many other Executives on similar genuine grounds were not given consideration.

All these executives are representing their grievances and are waiting for justice with prolonged patience and faith for consideration of their requests on genuine grounds and many of them are without salary due to forced ERP relieving by Circles/BAs.

Now also requests of executives with similar genuine grounds rather more critical and serious issues are waiting for justice and unfortunately genuine requests by these executives are not given consideration.

SNEA has brought to the notice of management and how such partial modification gives support to belief of some of the executives that Management is working in a selective manner and consideration to even genuine requests are given consideration on pick and choose basis. Otherwise how OTP requests are given consideration on a pick and choose basis while there are chances of one to one mutual OTP Transfers. 

No Executives is transferred out of Tenure Circle in this order on completion of Tenure at All India Hard Tenure stations but in copy and paste manner, it is written under clause 10 of this modification order that Executives from tenure stations may be relieved only after completion of Tenure.

We have once again consolidated the pending genuine Requests of individuals and we are pursuing with Management for its consideration and we are hopeful for consideration of all these requests on similar genuine grounds. Or consideration of the genuine requests.

Every modification order we have seen the efforts of Management for more transparent working as compared to earlier order and some clarity guidelines are issued in earlier orders requests on self and family medical grounds and now the same are issued for Immunity ground requests.

It is seen that Immunity requests are recommended by Circles properly with strict compliance as per format declared by Pers section and mainly ERP entry of holding post as Office Bearer of Association. It is need of time that on formation of new Body at any level, the entry of OBs eligible for Immunity needs to be made in ERP and the same is missing in many cases and we have taken up these cases a fresh. Meantime DS/CS concerned and individual OBs whose request for grant of immunity is not yet given consideration, are requested to check for ERP entry as OB of SNEA and also to check that the request is duly recommended by Circe Head with all information in prescribed format.

The Circle Heads are directed to send the detailed report on genuineness of medical grounds by constitution of the Circle level committee and reports are to be sent with due recommendations by Circle Heads to Director HR latest by end of November 2025.

Good initiative in this order is that Management has given consideration to the difficulties faced by the executives whose requests were recommended by BAs/Circles and their transfer was deferred, but these Executives were relieved through ERP by Circle/BAs and were facing hardship due to stoppage of payment and now all these executives are restored in ERP and their salary will be restored.

At this stage we convey thanks to Shri. A Robert J Ravi, CMD BSNL, Dr Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director HR and Shri. Rajeev Kumar Kaushik PGM Pers & his team for consideration of Partial Requests out of many representations on genuine grounds and we are hopeful for similar justice to other executives waiting for prolonged faith and patience for consideration of their pending requests on genuine grounds.

We also convey thanks to all these executives for their prolonged patience and strong faith on SNEA and its persuasion for last six months, which is base for this justice prevailed to some of the executives and we assure other similarly affected executives with similar policy guidelines to have some more patience for their turn for justice which will surely prevail in coming days as Management is now considerate on genuine grounds and uniform approach is quite possible on left out cases also.
