Letter>>>

Following issues were discussed in Depth with CGMT,Shri Rohit Sharmaji and GM(HR & Admin),Shri Nakhale ji –

(a) Issuance of long pending Tenure Transfers – We bought to the notice of CGMT,MH Circle that the executives are waiting for issuance of Tenure Transfer orders since August 2023 and now they have completed more than 2.5 years in tenure station. Initially CGMT opined that we should advise the members to work in tenure station for a period of 3 years. We strongly objected and told that there exist a transfer policy and according to the transfer policy guidelines the tenure period is of 2 years. The tenure stations are declared as Tenure due to difficult working conditions and because of being non-popular stations and if the period is increase to 3 years no executive will willingly opt for tenure station. We also asked CGMT,MH Circle to issue orders for Tenure stations whose tenure period is completing upto September 2023. We also apprised him that due to 3^rd Membership Verification to be held tentatively in August-September 2023 and so it is necessary to issue orders at the earliest as after issuance of notification there will be halt on Transfer orders. CGMT told that they are waiting for issuance of inter circle rotational transfer orders and the Tenure transfer orders will be issued soon after the issuance of this orders.

(b) Regarding Intra Circle Rotational Transfers – We told the administration that SNEA is not against the issuance of Intra Circle Rotational Transfers but the Transfers should have some ground in accordance with various clauses provided in Transfer Policy guidelines. We also quoted that if the orders are to be issued then they must issue the orders for JAG and SAG as well who have completed their Post Tenure. We also advocated that the executives who are willingly working in Tenure Stations shall not be disturbed in name of Rotational transfer as most of the Tenure stations of MH circle are good revenue Telecom districts and they are so mainly because of this local staff working in tenure stations. We also told that the rotational transfers may be issued only on basis of excess/shortage in respective SSA.

(c) Non Publication of OTP request Data – We requested the administration to publish the OTP requests received upto January 2023 so as to bring transparency in transfers.

(d) Immunity to office Bearers – It is brought to the notice of Circle Administration that some BA have issued letters to provide the BA wise District Body of the association for grant of immunity. We apprised the administration that as per our constitution and constitution of almost all Unions and associations the provision for Office Bearers at BA level does not exist and the issue is taken up by SNEA CHQ with Director HR and may have an outcome more sooner than later. It is thus requested to wait for some more period before asking for the BA Level Body of Office Bearers.

(e) Regarding Monetisation of Staff Quarters at Prime location of Mumbai -We brought to the notice of Circle administration that the decision of management to monetise the Staff Quarters at various location of Mumbai will cause hardship to more than 200 families residing in the quarters. We also told the administration that they should take up the matter with CHQ to stop the processs for monetization of these properties. We also told the management that the cost of hire accommodation at Mumbai or Sub Urban area is very costly and not manageable in the amount of HRA given by BSNL. We also conveyed the management that as per Article 21 of Indian Constitution a Right to live with dignity is the fundamental right and the management is infringing this basic right. We told that SNEA MH will stand strongly with the affected employees and will also raise the issue through AUAB,MH Circle.

The delegation then met GM(Finance),Shri Mahawar ji regarding the issuance of Rule8/Rule 9 pending cases of JAOs. We recalled our last discussion with GM(Finance) where in he has assured that the Rule8/Rule 9 transfer orders will be issued in March 2023. We requested GM(Finance) for early issuance of these orders. He told that he will do the needful for issuing the orders.

The delegation then met CE(Electrical), Shri Dhananjay Kumar ji to thank him for issuance of SDE (E) Look After orders. We also requested him to consider for early issuance of the request transfer orders of Electrical Wing. CE(E) assured that he will look into the matter and try to get the orders issued at the earliest.

Such cases are been reconciled and will be taken up with circle administration. Click for orders>>>>

03 OCT 2022 :

It is very unfortunate on part of BSNL Maharashtra in general and SNEA Maharashtra in particular. Despite assurance given by then CGMT MH on 21.09.2022 in front of GM HR , then CGMT MH happily retired on 30.09.2022 on superannuation retirement by keeping 194 request transfers pending. Not a single Rule -08 transfer issued by then CGMT MH despite hundreds of requests. Even tenure transfers are also not issued. Then CGMT MH followed only illegal Ghar Wapashi Policy and not followed the BSNL Maharashtra approved transfer policy .SNEA Maharashtra condemn such act of then CGMT MH Circle.

BSNL Maharashtra has highest EXECUTIVE strength of SNEA.SNEA Maharashtra played very vital role in achieving the target. SNEA Executives are working hard in each and every vertical of BSNL Maharashtra. Our executives are working in fields units under extremely difficult conditions & they are the reason Maharashtra circle has achieved the Revenue target of 540 Crores plus. Ofcourse management is taking efforts but grass root efforts are being taken by our Executives who are mostly members of SNEA.

All the waitlisted executives of OTP list are very unhappy because of non issuing of request transfers even after working hard day & night & completing their tenure at respective stations. Then CGMT has badly brought down their moral by not giving them justice.

But Comrades, do not panic and do not get frustrated. New CGMT Sh Rohit Sharma has took over the charge of BSNL Maharashtra circle. I know he is very practical officer and knows each and every difficulty of field officer. We are proud to say that not a single request transfer is pending under CGM CNTX West & we are very hopeful the New CGMT MH will understand the plight of the deprived executives & give them well deserved justice. SNEA delegation is going to welcome new CGMT Sh Rohit Sharma shortly. We will take up pending request transfers & other pending issues along with development issues during the welcome meet.

02 OCT 2022 :

Best wishes on occasion of

Mahatma Gandhi Gayanti..

17 MAY 22: Delegation of SNEA MH met to Sh. Suresh Nakhale , GM (HR) w.r.t. issue of request transfers of BSNL executives who has not covered in 22.05.2021 orders and who has applied in JAN-22 OTP. We further requested to release all the request transfers in respect of Telecom, Civil, Electrical and finance by end of May 2022 as new academic year and school /college admissions are already started. Our executives are eagerly waiting for request transfers.

In reply ,GM(HR) told that the transfer orders of such officers will be issued who has already transferred during the period April –May 2020.Means they will be bring back to their original section. For example, suppose two officers are transferred from Pune to Satara in transfer order April- May 2020, same officers will be bring back to Pune. No further transfer orders will be issued either from Pune OR from Satara. This is total injustice and harassment on executives of BSNL Maharashtra by circle administration by keeping all guidelines of approved transfer policy aside. How circle administration can frame any rule by their own without taking any association into confidence?

We strongly oppose such stand of circle administration and requested to issue all transfer orders of all executives who has applied in JAN-OTP and left over cases from 22.05.2021 orders.

We also requested to consider the representations of affected executives in recent transfer order issued by corporate office i.e. more than 26 years orders.

8 MAR 22:: DGM HRL Mumbai published list showing names and options submitted by Executives under OTP window which was Open from 16/01/2022 to 31/01/2022 for Intra Circle transfers. SDE/ JTO <<<>>> AGM/AO /JAO <<<>>> SDE E/ JTO C/E <<<>>>

This is special action taken as per request of SNEA MH as step towards transparent working. This list includes all names which were not given consideration and were asked by Staff section to submit fresh application under OTP.

During last discussions, it was assured by CGMT MH that all these pending Requests transfers will be given consideration in last week of March 2022. Accordingly list of requests for Intra Circle transfers received under OTP is published.

Normally individuals are aware about the status of his/her OTP request for transfer, but others who will be under zone of transfers as substitute are not aware about the incoming requests to their SSA and in confusion they are not able to submit options for post which will be vacant where they can accept transfers when it is due.

This data will give idea to all such executives who will be under zone of transfers either after implementation of these request transfers or to fill vacant posts at different SSAs having shortage of executives about their position and where he/she has to opt for any of suitable SSA for him/her or to be ready for transfer at any of SSA which will have shortage after implementation of these transfers.

SNEA MH has already taken up matter with CGMT MH for more transparent working by publishing list of request transfers, SSA wise Strength of executives showing shortage /excess executives, List staying show of executives having excess executives and so and in first stage the list of all intra Circle OTP requests are published.

Hopefully, now the SSA wise excess shortage data with updated stay particulars of Executives from SSAs having excess strength will be published.
