CHQ NEWs

Objectives of and critical issues before JACs at Central/Circle/SSA levels and the very tough and unparalleled challenges that they face and have to overcome in the days to come:  

Objective of Joint Action Committees at Central/Circle/SSA levels –  

Complete responsibility of building a formidable and sustained Country wide   movement to focus the crucial and basic issues that require serious and immediate policy intervention of the government to comprehensively address issues of viability on all the fronts. Also to develop extraordinary sense of oneness and total cohesion at base level among all the affiliates of JAC.  

Immediately constitute JACs at Circle/SSA levels and make them as highly proactive and vibrant instruments of building massive media and public support for upcoming struggles.

Huge challenges before JACs at Circle/SSA levels: to get proactively and fully involved in arresting rampant and ever increasing corruption in the field units, radically improve very poor quality of services, introduce modern and business like customer interface, isolate work shirkers, force management at Circle/SSA levels to enforce policy decisions that help in improving quality of services, customer interface and growth.  

What are the issues – Pragmatic policy initiatives of the government relating to revival of BSNL, a highly professional BSNL management belonging to the Company having sweeping and absolute powers to take business and commercial policy decisions without any interference from the bureaucracy in DOT and investigating agencies like CVC, CBI etc., focus on right investment policies and emerging areas of telecom business.

15.6.2010:It is learnt through reliable sources that AP Circle is  contributing around Rs 850 Crores loss during the financial year 2009-2010. The decline in anticipated profit in GSM and BB segment, abnormal increase of corruption at the highest level, misuse of Vehicles, abnormal increase of Medical expenditure, increase of office expenditure, implementation of CDR in Hyderabad, lack of devotion by the top level management, wrong / no planning etc are the some of the major reasons contributing towards the loss. Inspite of giving sufficient inputs to the CGMT on the decline in GSM sector since last one year due to the poor / inefficient handling by the GM Marketing Sri K.K.Takur,  absolutely no decision making / planning by GM ( Plg) Sri Rambabu there was no response from the CGMT either to mend them or move them. [During July 2009, under Joint Forum Meeting also CS expressed about the decline in profit during 2008-09 is due to the increase of corruption at the highest level in AP, CGMT has not responded positively]. Atleast CGMT should wake up now forgetting about his retirement and concentrate on the development by reshuffling the non performing SAG / JAG Officers instead of making himself busy in issuing vindictive transfers to the lower level executives creating total unrest among the work force. Also CGMT has to take tough measures to curb the corruption, reduce office expenditure, misuse of vehicles / official machinery for personal use, reduce number of meetings, Right man for the Right Job, inculcating positive attitude among the executives etc is the need of the hour. It is really surprise to know that some of the Officers, even drinking water, Tea / Coffee, Cool drinks, Tiffin, lunch, if possible carry bag for dinner are also being spent from the Office expenditure. There should be radical change among all the employees and executives to bring AP Circle into profit and is the responsibility of all and is purely a team effort. Our Association is ready for any type of sacrifice provided the CGMT takes tough decisions in the interest of BSNL AP Circle.

14.6.2010: The Lunch hour Demonstrations was organized successfully at O/o CGMT in Hyderabad and reports from SSAs is also good .

11.6.2010: CS met GM HRD Sri K.V.Subba Rao and expressed total unhappiness over the delay in issuing Officiating Promotion orders to STS.GM HRD said the file was cleared by him two days back and assured to look into the issue. The request transfers of Executives from ADB and Karimanagar will be issued after giving the Officiating Promotions. The request transfers of few JTOs will be issued after Joining of New JTOs( Many JTOs have gone back home after 4 weeks Field training as the required information like PVC / Caste / Degree Verification etc were not completed for issue of Appointment orders). Request transfers of PA / PS was also discussed- GM HRD said the orders will be issued today.

CS sent SMS to CGM about the delay in issuing the Officiating Promotions to executives and will be meeting him shortly.

Request transfers of PAs / PSs issued. The order clearly exhibits the mean mentality of the Circle Administration towards the absorbed executives in denying the justified TA /DA for the executives whose request transfers were considered after putting up sufficient service. Where as Circle Admn is liberal towards the Unabsorbed executives. For example, a JAG Officer on Promotion was posted as SAG to Karimnagar SSA with TA / DA but within a span of one year, he was transferred to Circle Office with TA / DA. Association will be strongly opposing all such actions of the Circle Administration.

10.6.2010: On our request, special classes for SC / ST JTOs who are appearing in the TES Gr.'B' Competitive Exams was organised at RTTC, Hyderabad. There will be two batches ( 1st Batch 14,15 &16 and 2nd Batch 17,18 & 19 July).Timings 9.30 to 5 PM. All the JTOs are requested to utilise the oppurtunity.

GM Assured to complete the process latest by tomorrow. After completion of STS, TES Gr'B' Promotions will be issues. Also discussed on other issues. 

8.6.2010:  On continuation pressure exerted on Circle administration, meager order that too only looking after arrangement issued to JAG. This is totally absurd as Association demanding Officiating Promotions to JAG and not looking after arrangement from Adhoc / Regular STS. Association is strongly communicating to the administration about their indifferent attitude towards absorbed executives & at the same time demanding for filling up of all vacant posts in JAG / STS / TES Gr'B' immediately.

05-06-2010: CS met DGM (A) Smt Anila Kiran and congratulated on assuming the charge of DGM (A) of AP Circle on regular basis. Informed about the abnormal delay in issuing the Officiating Promotion orders to TES Gr'B', STS and JAG. It was informed that STS will be issued by 8th June and remaining follows.

03.06.2010: All News Papers and Electronic Media has covered about the SCAM of Rs 1.4.Crores. The actual details are.

1. During 2007 / 2008 BSNL instead of Printing the RCs , issues E Pins through CDs to the Franchisees. Each CD has 5000 EPins worth of Rs 112/ each..

2. SDE on transfer from Khammam Sri Lokanatha Rao has taken over the Charge as SDE Sales during July 2009. 

3. Whenever he is going on leave the charge was made over to Sri Nageswar Rao another SDE working under DE Sales.

4. During march 2010 there was misappropriation of RCs worth Rs 1.30 Lakhs and Administration insisted Mr Lokanatha Rao to pay the amount so the no action will be initiated.

5. Sri Lokanatha Rao fearing punishment paid the amount withdrawing from GPF.

6. Administration transferred Lokanatha Rao to Mushirabad and instructed to Make over the charge to Nageswar Rao.

7. During M/o, observed 26 CDs which were  supposed to contain the 5000 E Pins of Rs112[ ( 112 X 5000 =  Rs5,60,000) worth per CD equal to Rs1.45 Crores] were found without any data.

8. Administration verified and found that majority were activated during November 2009 and March 2010.

9. Presently case is booked in the Saifabad Police Station and are investigating.

10. Both the SDEs are under suspension.

11. The rumors are floating in Hydearabad that some top level Officers of BSNL are also involved in this scandal. Police assured to catch the culprits very shortly.

Inspite of Association requesting CGMT during Feb /  March 2010, when one of the Franchisee cheated BSNL by circulating in the market the fake RCs, the Administration failed to take any action and this inaction of the administration is leading to one scam after another. 

Association is in continuous touch with GM Sales and DGM Sales and assured to help in all respects to catch hold of the culprit in what ever position he may be occupying in BSNL.

2. BB Plans for the staff : Requested to extend special unlimited plans to the employees and executives at the concessional rates.CMD enquired about the disconnections in BB. Association fairly and frankly told that, the poor after sales service is the reason and the customer has to move from pillar to post if fault occurs to get restored and NIB Bangalore is also contributing for the disconnections and requested to have separate NIB node in Hyderabad to avoid hardships to the customers.

3. Availability of smaller denomination RCs

8. Officiating Promotions JTO to SDE, SDE to STS and STS to JAG- Association informed that there is considerable delay in issuing the Officiating Promotions. As the existing options received will not be sufficient, fresh options may be called for the remaining vacancies.As majority of executives to be considered for Officiating Promotion have got their TBP, the necessity of fresh DPC is not necessary.

• Implementation of transfer policy as followed in Karnataka i.e to bring back the transferred executives after two years.

20.4.2010: Hon'ble MOC was in detail apprised about the deliberate attempts being made to derail the process of absorption of ITS and how inordinate delay has adversely affected the growth of BSNL. After getting elaborate feedback from JAC, Secy/DOT apprised that Cabinet note being sent does not contain any demand of ITSA regarding their absorption, neither prospective date of absorption or any other new demand. The note only explains in detail that the absorption process initiated by DOT twice has not met with considerable success, and, as such, Cabinet is being approached to advise DOT as to how to go about in such a situation and deal with huge number of ITS officers having decided not to get absorbed in BSNL. For this, wider consultations with Ministry of law, DOP, D.O.E etc are needed which is expected to talk another three months. After getting advice from Cabinet, DOT will immediately act on the advice of the Cabinet. Hon'ble MOC is fully committed to get the issue conclusively resolved, and is now informed of all the dimensions of the issue. What is extremely significant is that Hon'ble MOC also directed BSNL Management to take immediate action by way of recruitment of DGMs and MTs so that a parallel middle level Management is available in the event of repatriation of ITS from BSNL. When we pointed out that the eligibility conditions for recruitment of DGMs and MTs are finalized in such a manner so as to derail the process, Hon'ble MOC  directed CMD and Director(HR) to discuss and finalize eligibility conditions afresh in consultation with the Associations. However, on ITS absorption, two important issues have surfaced, one is that Hon'ble MOC's committed involvement and non inclusion of demands of ITS in the Cabinet note, and the second one is taking immediate action in the direction of setting up a parallel middle level Management in BSNL.

When the demand of fixation of new IDA scales @ 78.2% was strongly pleaded with Hon'ble MOC, he clearly directed CMD to discuss the issue with executive Associations, failing which he advised us to meet him.    

<<Minutes of the meeting>>

01.03.2010: CS along with ACS HQ Com S.R.Chandrasekhar and COS Com Chaitanya met CGMT AP Circle and discussed on our issues. Association expressed unhappiness over the irregular reorganization of HTD, inaction on the misdeeds of the Franchisees etc. The need of the hour is to strengthen the external plant, but in the name of reorganization overburdening the SDOTs is not at all useful in the interest & growth of BSNL HTD. The issue will be taken up with PGM HTD seriously. All the executives working in the external plant are requested to respond to the Association call which may be given at short notice. The discussions lasted for more than 2 Hours. The issues discussed with GM HRD and DGM (A) earlier were informed to the CGMT. Many issues were discussed in the interest of BSNL AP Circle.The main issues are...

1. Consideration of request transfers uniformly for all executives. 

2. Consideration of request transfers of  all executives from tenure stations.

3. Calling of options from long standing executives to consider the request transfers.

4. The options called for giving officiating promotions to SDEs / STS / JAG are insufficient and also informed about the discrepancies.

5. Excluding the executives working in tenure and unpopular SSAs  from the long standing list.

6. Posting of Newly recruited JTOs. 

7. Declaration of Nizamabad as tenure etc.

31.3.2010:As promised to us AP Circle administration has called options from the STS officers for giving Officiating promotion to JAG declaring the vacancies. All are requested to utilize the opportunity.
