BSNL Pune saves Rs 8.4 Crores per annum on Electricity Bills: Dedicated team of Electrical wing, Pune BA and MH Circle has taken special initiatives for saving huge money of BSNL on electricity Charges for Mahadji Shinde Telephone Exchange Building, Pune with conversation of Commercial to Industrial electricity tariff as same has been approved by MSEDCL w.e.f. 01/05/2025. Due to this Commercial billing tariffs, BSNL was paying extra Electricity charges of Rs 70 Lakhs per month and Rs 8.4 Crores per annum and this amount will be now reduced with use of electricity charges as per Industrial tariff.

This team of Electrical wing consisting of Shri. Virendra Satpute EEE Pune, Shri. Abhijeet Gujar, SDEE MHS Bldg, Shri Rahul Dhokate, JOTE MHS Bldg Pune, Shri. Sanjay Lingayat JTO JOTE MHS Bldg Pune, Shri Subash Desai, JTOE Mumbai and Mrs. Shilpa Bhatkar JTOE Mumbai in active support of Shri Bhushan Chikhlikar SEE Mumbai under valuable guidance of Shri Dhanajay Kumar Sr CEE Mumbai and Shri Bhatambare PGM Pune BA have devotedly pursued this issue with regular follow ups with officers of MSEDCL HQ Mumbai by submitting all required documents for conversion of Commercial Tariff to Industrial Tariff.

Shri Harindar Kumar, CGMT MH Circle appreciated the efforts of the team members by issuing appreciation letter to all the team members for such excellent officers, which were handed over in small function to all the team members by hands of Shri. Dhananjay Kumar, Sr CEE Mumbai. PHOTOs <<<>>

Team SNEA Pune led by Shri. Subhash Kadam DS, Shri Prayag Pisal, DP, Shri Datta Chavan, CWCM SNEA MH, and Shri Shailendra Solanke, CP SNEA MH and many other leaders and members of SNEA felicitated all these Executives who are all members of SNEA in a special function arranged at Bajirao Road Telephone Exchange Conference hall and congratulated them for such extraordinary work with excellent contribution towards BSNL thereby saving crores of rupees of BSNL. PHOTOs <<<>>

SNEA CHQ congratulates the team of Electrical wing Pune BA and MH Circle for such extraordinary efforts and appeals all the executives in BSNL to taken note of this and check the tariff applied for the Electricity connectivity for their Telephone Exchanges /Establishments and if it is Commercial, then it may be please get converted to Industrial tariff and save huge Money of BSNL being paid on under such avoidable head. If alone Mahadji Shinde Exchange Pune can save Rs 8.4 Crores of BSNL per annum, naturally number of hundreds of Crores of rupees will be saved all over India.

For approval of upgraded Standard pay scales we need about Rs 100 Crores and such efforts to save BSNL Money by such 10 to 12 Big Exchange Building can save Rs 100 Cores which is expenditure for approval of Upgraded Standard Pay Scales for affected executives in BSNL.

In similar manner, if we could save such unwanted expenditure for 100 big Exchange Buildings all over India, we will be in position to get our 3^rd PRC Implemented without any further hurdles. In lack of such strong initiatives well within time, huge hard earned money of BSNL is being wasted and hence it is need of time that we all executives have to be more alert and save every penny of BSNL being wasted in this way.

All such special efforts on part of each and every executives for saving BSNL Money will pave way for our 3^rd PRC in this year itself. For more information on steps, procedure and guidelines to be followed for conversion of Commercial Electricity Tariff, please contact Shri. Rahul Dhokate JTOE MHS Bldg Pune {Mob 9420495060} and/or Shri. Abhijeet Gujar, SDEE MHS Bldg {9423007700}.

DGM Pers BSNL CO writes to all Circle Heads regarding extension of Processing of e-APARs through ESS-Portal for FY' 2024-25 till 28/07/2025. Copy<<<>>

As clearly mentioned in this letter, this may be last extension for reporting and reviewing pending APARs as this time window is not opened for Submission of APARs even though some Executives have till not initiated APRs.

SNEA CHQ appeals all the executives to taken note of it and see that all the activities related to Reporting and Reviewing APARs are completed in these extended timelines and avoid complications  if any due to non-extension of APARs. 

Addl. GM BW BSNL CO modified the transfer order of EE/AGM Civil issued by CGM ALTTC from BRBRAITT Jabalpur to CNTxN-Delhi. Copy<<<>>

In recent past about all SDEs/AGMs from ALTTC Ghaziabad were transferred by CGM ALTTC  to different training Centres viz. RTTC Jaipur, BRBRAITT Jabalpur and ZTTC Kalyani. Copy<<<>>

These executives are/were not given options as it was reshuffling by CGM ALTTC to meet shortage due to delay in issuing posting order of Executives selected for posting at RTTC Jaipur.

While these executives are transferred out of ALTTC some more Executives are posted to ALTTC and all these orders are company cost wasting hard earned Money of BSNL.

SNEA has taken up this issue and requested CGM ALTTC and PGM Pers, Director HR for issuing the posting order of executives selected for RTTC Jaipur and retention of the Executives under transfer from ALTTC Ghaziabad and it is under consideration.

This is first order of modification of Transfer order issued by CGM ALTTC and we are hopeful with posting of selected executives, the transfer order of Executives from ALTTC Ghaziabad will be modified suitably or they will be given option before transfer out of ALTTC.

AGM Estt BSNL CO endorsed DPE/DoT orders for Revision of IDA rates from exiting 226.5% to 227.1% w.e.f. 01/01/2007.  Copy<<<>>

AGM Pers BSNL CO issued Transfer order of AGMs/ SDEs Telecom from different units and mainly posting them to ALTTC. Copy<<<>>

This is one more pick and choose Transfer order issued by Pers Cell BSNL CO without  any consideration to need of ALTTC and current happenings at ALTTC.

Many of these executives are not willing for working at ALTTC and some who are recently transferred at company cost as per ERP relieving of BSNL CO just before few weeks/months are again transferred at Company cost wasting BSNL Money.

Some of these executives have opted for own cost OTP transfers for their choice circle and waiting for its consideration but the same is not given consideration and now these Executives are transferred and posted to ALTTC at company cost.

This transfer order is issued  by violating well defined procedure for selection and posting of executives at BSNL Training Centres.   Copy<<<>>

As per these guidelines, ALTTC has already conducted Process for selection of SDEs and AGMs required at ALTTC Jaipur Copy<<<>>

But it is unfortunate that since last one year no posting order is issued by Pers section even after repeated requests by individuals, request and reminders by CGM ALTTC and its regular pursuation by SNEA.  

Most surprising and astonishing fact is that just before fortnight CGM ALTTC has issued transfer order of about all SDEs/AGMs working at ALTTC to Training Centres at other locations viz. BRBRAITT Jabalpur, RTCC Jaipur and RTCC Kalyani  stating that there are excess officers at ALTTC. Copy<<<>>

In last week three AGMs from ALTTC are transferred and posted to BSNL Corporate Office by the same Pers section again giving reason that there are excess officers in ALTTC. Copy<<<>>

Now the same Pers section is again posting one SDE and three AGMs to ALTTC Ghaziabad and that to be pic and choose manner by violating well defined guidelines issued by the same Pers section for posting of Executives.

Pers section seems to be working by keeping focus on direct  wastage of hard earned BSNL Money and as if wasting of BSNL Money by issuing more and more company cost orders is one of the target under IPMS for Pers section.  

When there is no money to even to replace old BSNL logo at Corporate office, Bharat Sanchar Bhawan New Delhi with new logo since last six months, which just costs few lakhs, here money is being wasted by Pers Section in crores of rupees by issuing pick and choose,  unwanted and avoidable transfers.    

We are finding the present situation at BSNL CO about transfer posting has Spiritual Significance of Andher Nagari Chaupat Raja, Take Ser Bhaji Take Ser Khaja meaning that a kingdom of ignorance with an insane king where everything like vegetables and sweets of one kilo are sold for one rupee.

All these are the deliberate attempts on diverting focus from the Mission BSNL First by CMD BSNL for revenue earning or generating more and more revenue for BSNL. But the Pers section is making all out efforts so that such hard earned money by CMD BSNL is immediately spent and wasted on such repeated company cost transfer and posting orders.

Let us all pray God for the minimum required HR and Finance wisdom to these officers dealing with transfer posting in such blind approach neglecting transfer policy guidelines issued by their own office and in such utter biased pick and choose manner thereby directly damaging interest of BSNL and spoiling the revenue generation and target oriented approach by CMD BSNL.
