AGM Rectt BSNL
CO issued notification for direct recruitment of Junior Telecom Officer (Telecom)
in BSNL from open market for 100 vacancies. Copy<<<>>
It is good
that the ban on recruitment in BSNL after VRS 2019 has been lifted now and
recruitment process started after gap of six years.
BSNL was
recruiting thousands of JTOs every year but when the now recruitment is being
started after gap of six years, then also only 100 post are declared vacant.
Out of
these 100 vacant posts, 78 post are in only SIX circles viz. KTK 26, KTL 15, MP
10 MH 16, OD 07 and CHTD 05.
Other Circles
have one to three posts and about Nine Circles have no single vacancy of JTOs.
When thousands
of JTO post are vacant, the recruitment of just 100 JTOs on pan India basis is
nothing but wastage of time and money of BSNL as this is too small quantity to
meet present requirement of BSNL over India.
SNEA will
take this issue suitably for practical approach in meeting acute shortage of
JTOs in filed units and to decrease workload of multiple charges given to the
JTOs/SDEs working in the field units and even for consideration of many long pending
Rule 8 Request transfers of existing JTOs, which are not implemented just for
want of substitute.

BSNL CO writes reminder to all Circle Heads regarding Verification of Employee
Data and Payment of Insurance Benefits under BSNL Gratuity and Leave Encashment
Schemes. Copy<<<>>
Mrs. Jaini
Baby, DGM BSNL and stalwart, dedicated Member of SNEA retires on superannuation
with highly successful services in DoT/BSNL: It is a moment of pride,
gratitude and heartfelt appreciation of Mrs. Jaini Baby, DGM BSNL,
Kerala Circle and one of the most respected and steadfast members of SNEA, who retires
on superannuation after completing an illustrious and highly successful more
than 35 years of dedicated service in DoT and BSNL. Copy<<<>>
Mrs. Jaini
Baby has been a true pillar of strength for SNEA. Though she never
sought organizational positions or recognition, her unwavering commitment, silent
sacrifices, and lifelong contributions have significantly strengthened the
Association and inspired generations of executives. Her dedication to the
welfare of executives and the growth of SNEA has earned her immense respect and
admiration across the country.
Mrs. Jaini
Baby commenced her professional journey as a JTO Telecom in 1990
and through her competence, commitment, and exemplary leadership, rose through
various positions as SDE since 2001, AGM since 2018 and as DGM LA since 2021,
leaving an indelible mark at every stage of her career including 13 years
period at BSNL Corporate Office from 2009 to 2022. Her professional life stands
as a shining example of excellence, integrity, punctuality, perseverance, and
selfless service.
Known
for her impeccable work ethic, discipline, and dedication, Mrs. Jaini Baby has
always been regarded as one of the most respected women leaders associated with
SNEA. Throughout her career, she combined professional excellence with active
involvement in Association activities, consistently extending her support and
guidance whenever required.
Her
professional journey is a beautiful tapestry woven with devotion, integrity,
perseverance, and compassion. However, the contribution of Mrs. Jaini Baby
extends far beyond her official responsibilities. Her life has been closely
intertwined with the history and growth of SNEA itself.
During
the long and eventful tenure of her spouse, Mr. K. Sebastian, as AGS and
GS SNEA, Mrs. Jaini Baby made extraordinary personal sacrifices. By
relocating her family to Delhi and standing firmly beside him throughout nearly
twelve years of demanding organizational responsibilities, she became an unseen
but indispensable force behind many of the defining moments in the journey of
SNEA.
While
the Association witnessed the leadership and courage of a GS, Mrs. Jaini
Baby displayed an equally remarkable courage as a life partner, facing
uncertainties, pressures, and hardships with patience, resilience, and
determination. Through every challenge, she remained steadfast, never allowing
adversity to weaken her resolve.
Many
members will fondly remember her active participation in organizational
activities, meetings, demonstrations, and forums, often representing the
collective voice of executives as one of the few women leaders in the movement.
Her contribution was not merely participative, but it was inspirational.
Through her dedication and example, numerous women executives found the
confidence to come forward, assume responsibilities, and emerge as leaders
within SNEA.
The
strength, inclusiveness, and vibrancy that characterize SNEA today carry the
imprint of her tireless efforts, sacrifices, and silent yet powerful leadership.
After rendering such great and devoted services throughout the life, Mrs. Jaini
Baby, retired on 30/05/2026 on superannuation retirement from the highly successful
35 years & five months of services in DoT and BSNL.
SNEA CHQ
recognises devoted services of Mrs. Jaini Baby, as committed leader of JTOA,
TEOA and SNEA which she rendered to the Executives in BSNL in general and
Members of SNEA in particular.
On this
great occasion, on behalf of thousands of the members and leaders of SNEA all
over India, SNEA CHQ congratulate Mrs. Jaini Baby, for successfully
completing such long and spotless services in DoT/BSNL and conveys best wishes
for her very Healthy, Wealthy and long retired life.
