            Sub:- Comments on Revised RR-of JTO 2014.
            Ref:-  Letter No. 5-32/2013- Pers IV Dtd 17th Jan.2014.

            Respected Sir,
            Vide above referred letter BSNL Corporate Office called for the comments
on the proposal of revised RR for the post of JTO (T). The comments were called from the
Various Associations by 27/01/2014.
            Our forum represents about 200 Screen Test qualified & Trained Officiating JTO’s
Of Maharashtra Circle, we offer our following comments on the RR Circulated by BSNL, since we
are covered in column-11 of Schedule to JTO RR 2014 under 50% internal Quota to be filed
by absorption as given in serial No.1
             Note 3 of the Schedule of JTO RR2014 indicates how the seniority on
Appointment in the cadre of JTO will be fixed to those who cleared LICE or Directly recruited officials. However how seniority of the Screen Test qualified Officiating JTO who passed the Screen Test in 2000 and working as Officiating JTO’s after completion of Phase-I Training
For more than 8 Years will be fixed is not mentioned in this Para.
           
We apprehend this may result in unnecessary litigation about the fixation of seniority.
            Therefore our Forum suggests that suitable modification to Note-3 to be made as per

The approved proposal at Para 11 of discussion held on 02/01/2001 in the meeting with Three Federations Presided by CMD BSNL regarding Terms and Conditions for Absorption of Group C & D Staff in BSNL and Circulated vide Letter No. BSNL-4/ SR/2000 Dtd. 01/01/2001.
           
As per above cited approved proposal the seniority of Screen Test qualified & Phase I Training completed Officiating JTO’s, who had already been qualified in 2000 Exam.
           Would rank senior to those Gr. C TTA’s who appeared in Promotional Departmental Exam, in the year 2013 & qualified later.
           
We request you to consider incorporating our proposal on lines of the agreement with The Three Federations entered in to by BSNL at the time of our absorption in BSNL.

INDIFFERENT ATTITUDE OF BSNL MANAGEMENT TOWARDS DOT


RECRUITED  STAFF



Respected Sir,

We the most humble employees of BSNL who discharging duties as Officiating JTOs at par with regular JTOs for more than eight years are at a loss to observe indifferent attitude of BSNL management to fulfill its own commitment on regularization of Officiating JTOs made on 31-03-2001.

 Certain officers of Management in collusion with Direct Recruited TTA’s and their illegal Association named SNATTA. (No cadre union/association is allowed to form in group C &D as per Trade union recognition Rules of BSNL) acted willfully for defeating BSNL Board decision about regularization of officiating JTO’s. Following facts will enlighten the real dark face of BSNL Mgt. and their involvement in showing favoritism to the group of direct recruited TTA’s .

 

Shri. Dalbir Singh & Eight Direct recruited TTA’s of Punjab circle filed case  in  High Court of Punjab and Haryana against BSNL Board decision of Diversion of outsider quota for absorption of  Officiating  JTO’s , who has qualified in Screen Test,  on the grounds that, the diversion of the post caused  injustice to them, as  BSNL Mgt. is not conducting LICE for promoting  to JTO post, for which they are being eligible and waiting since 2002.

They even misguided court by producing fraudulent information about their number of years of service as 20 years & 15 Years and only because of diversion process their future is adversely affected.  Infact on the date of filing Rit Pition or even on the date of judgment, the petitioners did not possess the minimum requisite service of 10 years to appearing for JTO LICE at that time.

The service particulars of this eight applicants received through RTI 2005, is
tabulated below




           Name                     Date of Appointment                            Total Service     
1. Dalbir Singh                14-09-2002            4years 7months
2. Ishpal Singh                25-11-2002           4years 4months 21days
3. Naresh Kumar             23-11-2002           4years 4months 23days
4. Sarwan Kumar            23-11-2002            4years 4months 23days
5. Deepak Varma            18-11-2002            4years 4months 28days
6. Veerendra Kumar        08-07-2002           4years 9months 07days
7. Subhash                      25-11-2002           4years 4 months21days.
8. Adesh Kumar              18-07-2002            4years 8months 27days

 

It is to be noted that all the petitioners in the CWP entered in the Department in the year 2002 only and they possessed less than 5 years service at the time of filing the petition

 

The CGMT Haryana who was dealing with the rite Petition in High court on be half of or BSNL authenticated the fraudulent information submitted to the court in collusion with the 8 Direct Recruited TTA’s. Without coating and producing the factual information after verifying the service records of the applicant TTA’s who has actually put less than 5 years of service and not even eligible to appear in LICE.

          Actually the court case went against BSNL Board’s decision due to the collusion and conspiracy of the BSNL Management of CGMT Haryana unit with 8 applicants.

However on 04/11/2008 pursuant to the High Court of Punjab and Haryana Orders dated. 30/05/2008 in CWP 5608 /2007, BSNL Managing Committee in its 104th Meeting has decided –

a)      There will be no further Diversion of Direct Rect. Quota Posts to 35%. Deptl. Quota.

b)      As a Special measure BSNL has Created 3500 Supernumerary Posts of JTO’s to accommodate 3500 Screening Test qualified TTA’s who were promoted earlier as JTOs’ between the Years 2001 and 2007

c)       BSNL Management further diverted 500 posts of JTO from outsider quota to Deptl. Quota to create an opportunity for. Dalbir Singh & gang to file Contempt of Court case against our Organization BSNL.

d)       BSNL Management has violated Rule 14 & 16 Of Constitution of India by creating only 3500  Supernumerary Posts of JTO’s to accommodate 3500 Screening Test qualified TTA’s who were promoted, leaving behind 2000  qualified candidates in the same Screening Test conducted in the year 2000 by the DOT.

Various representations were made to the BSNL Management unfortunately  some of the officers of BSNL, collide with Direct recruited TTA’s  and reduced the number of years required for appearing to LICE from 10 years to 7 years and conducted LICE in March 2013. Now I apprehend that some officers in BSNL is trying to undermine the terms and conditions for absorption agreed with Three Federations on 2nd Jan 2001, according to which,

“The group C&D employees who appear for any promotional examination whether direct or departmental and qualify in such examinations./ Outsiders coming through direct recruitment process, would rank junior to all other employees in the promotional cadre who had already been qualified in the earlier examination even though they get absorbed in BSNL subsequently”.

          I am now afraid that certain officers in BSNL is contemplating to post these TTA’s who has cleared 2013 LICE Exam after JTO Training without absorbing left out 2000 TTA’s who qualified in earlier Screen Test of 2000, and senior to these group of TTA’s in violation of the Terms and conditions of absorption. Therefore I request,  I may be promoted immediately before issuing the promotion order of these TTA’s who cleared 2013 Exam.

          I also request to fix responsibility on the officers who willfully not filed correct and factual information about service particulars of the 8 petitioners who field the case. Since the petition is solely related with their length of service for appearing LICE Exam.

One of the Associations (AIBSNLEA) did demand an enquiry in the matter in April 2012 but management has done nothing till today.

We request your honor to look into the matter and compel the BSNL Management to act according to constitution of India, and do justice with us.

And vigilance inquiry of whole proceeding related with CWP 5608 /2007 High Court of Punjab and Haryana

Thanking you,

In anticipation of early favorable action.
