[31.08.2010]3G data card supply to Tamil Nadu Circle

 

The acute shortage of 3G data cards in Tamil Nadu Circle, on which BSNLEU, Tamil Nadu Circle conducted demonstrations on 30.08.2010, was brought to the notice of the CMD, by the staff side secretary in today’s National Council meeting. CMD contacted the concerned officers and took immediate action. Thereafter, CMD informed the house that 1500 data cards are already diverted to Tamil Nadu Circle and another 3000 data cards would be diverted within 5 days. He also assured that immediate action would be taken to overcome the short supply of 3G data cards.

 

[31.08.2010]Tamil Nadu Circle Union conducts demonstrations on improvement of service

Tamil Nadu Circle Union conducted demonstrations yesterday, the 30.08.2010, in all the Districts, demanding the management to immediately supply 3G data cards. Workers have participated enthusiastically and in large numbers in all the districts. It is reported that there is a great demand for BSNL’s 3G data cards from the general public. However, this is in short supply in all the districts. As a result, hundreds of customers have applied for this service and are put on waiting list in each and every station. On one side the BSNL management makes sermons to the workers to work hard to improve the services. On the other side when workers are prepared to work the management is incapable of making timely supply of necessary equipments. Condemning the lethargy and inaction on the part of management, Tamil Nadu Circle Union has conducted this programme. CHQ congratulates the Tamil Nadu Circle Union and all the District Unions.

[21.08.2010]Clarifications issued by BSNL CO on Non-Executive Promotion on Policy (NEPP)   some questions and answers

 Question No.1: In which way the clarifications issued on 20.08.2010 are going to be   beneficial to the employees? 

                              Reply 

No.1: The demand of our union that the employees should be given the option to get their pay fixation done on the date of next increment, instead of the date of promotion has been accepted. This clarification will benefit a large number of employees. 

No.2: Eventhough the order on Non-Executive Promotion Policy was issued on 23.03.2010 itself, the same has not been implemented in most of the circles for the past 5 months. Because almost all the CGMs had sought clarifications from the Corporate Office and the same were not issued. The Corporate Office was sleeping on the files. Thus, the United Forum gave call for agitations on 5th and 12th August, 2010. Thereafter the Corporate Office woke up and has now issued the clarifications. Some of the clarifications are not acceptable to us, which will be duly taken up with the management. However, based on these clarifications employees will be getting promotions immediately, as per NEPP. 

Question No.2:Why the modifications sought for by our union are not accepted and included in the clarifications issued on 20.08.2010. 

Reply: Our union has sought many modifications to the NEPP, to give more benefit to the employees. These modifications are to be taken up for discussion in the forth coming meeting of the National Council to be held on 31.08.2010. Nevertheless, these modifications were discussed with the management, in the talks held on 09.08.2010. Since the issues require more discussion, both sides agreed to discuss them further in the National Council meeting.

[20.08.2010]News from DoT

 

9200 scale cleared by DPE: - The NE 12 scale (9200) of the Non-Executive Promotion Policy has been sent for the approval of the Department of Public Enterprises (DPE). It is now learnt that DPE has cleared the file and sent back to the DoT. It is also learnt that the DPE has informed that the 9200 scale should not be in conflict with the Executive / Non-Unionised Supervisor’s scale. Now the BSNL Board has to take decision on this issue.

IDA Pension Revision:- The cabinet note approved by the Minister has already been referred to the DPE, Pension Department, Expenditure Department and Law Ministry for their comments. The comments from these Departments are yet to be received by DoT. On 17.08.2010, the DoT authorities assured BSNLEU to issue reminders to these 4 departments for sending their comments immediately.
