Update
on Meeting with CMD BSNL: By
understanding unrest among the executives waiting for OTP Request transfers and
undue delay in issuing OTP Request transfers, yesterday on 06/05/2026 at 1930
Hrs, GS SNEA had a meeting with Shri. A. Robert J. Ravi, CMD BSNL in the
presence of Dr. Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director HR and Shri. Rajeev
Kumar Kaushik, PGM Pers/SR BSNL CO.
Consideration
of OTP Request Transfers without further delay: We
specially expressed concern over the undue delay in issuing OTP Requests and
requested for issuing OTP transfer orders at the earliest.
CMD BSNL
informed that the work is being done by PGM Pers in a focused manner and in the
last 4 to 5 days he is working day and night on it and by now he is ready for
issuing orders. But due to the mismatch of data of some executives, PGM Pers
has not finalized the proposal and he will issue orders shortly.
We
brought to notice of CMD that there is mass unrest among executives due to this
undue delay in consideration of OTP Requests and added that we are also facing an
embarrassing situation as no assurance is followed by the management. We added
that earlier we were assured for OTP Transfer orders by March end, then in
April and now we are completing the first week of May, but uncertainty on OTP
Requests including that from all India Hard Tenure stations is still continuing.
CMD
BSNL agreed for the assurances given till now and informed that he is aware of
pressure and he is also receiving calls for OTP Requests even from higher
offices, but the transfer orders cannot be issued with wrong data. He confirmed
from PGM Pers about receipt of data for all wings & cadres and which was confirmed
by PGM. Then CMD BSNL directed PGM Pers to see that orders are issued without
further delay.
When we
insisted for time line for issuing OTP Requests as many assurances given are
not followed till now and requested to issue order in remaining two days of this
week, CMD BSNL assured for the same, instructed PGM Pers to act accordingly and
added that order may be issued before that also. With all these discussions, it
is sure that OTP Request Transfer order will
be issued at any time this week.
Consideration
of HR issues as discussed in last meeting dated 07/04/2026 : We
reminded about resolution of other HR issues discussed in our meeting with
Respected CMD BSNL on 07/04/2026 and added that even after one month is passed,
none of assurance are full filled as agreed upon. CMD BSNL confirmed status
from Director HR on all these HR issues, wherein Director HR informed that the
issues are under consideration, but PGM Pers is busy with OTP Requests and after
the OTP Requests, all these agreed HR issues will be given consideration. We
added that many of decided issues are pertaining to PGM Estt/Admn and requested
for its consideration, but Director HR informed that issues are discussed
together with PGM Pers/SR and PGM Estt/Admn but firmly assured that all these
HR issues will be discussed and decided in the coming week.
Delay
is settlement of HR issues and need to fill vacant posts of PGMs/GMs: We expressed
concern about overload to PGM Pers by addition of multiple charges of other
units in BSNL CO. We added that many PGM/GM level posts dealing with HR issues viz.
SR, Restructuring, Admn, Training and Recruitment are practically vacant for
last one year and all these works are assigned to only two PGMs i.e. PGM Pers
and PGM Estt. PGM Pers is given additional charge of SR and Restructuring
Section and PGM Estt is given additional charge of Admn, Training and
Recruitment section. In the last fortnight due to leave, all these sections
were looked after only by PGM Pers and he is practically overloaded and this is
the reason for delay in OTP Consideration. We added that PGM Pers is putting in
day and night sincere efforts, but it is not possible to look into these many
charges by a single officer. We expressed the urgent need of filling all these
vacant posts and mainly reducing the added workload of PGM Pers. CMD BSNL agreed
to our concern and assured to fill up these posts and instructed Director HR to
look into it with priority.
Implementation
of pending enhanced IDA: We also discussed about the implementation
of pending IDA and status of the report called by DoT on approval by IDA
enhancement by BSNL Board so that pending approval is issued by DoT for
implementation of pending IDA w.e.f. 01/01/2026. We expressed that due this
delay of four months, executives are feeling cheated as this simple issue has
not been decided for the last three months and expressing the feeling that how
can we expect settlement of other issues. CMD BSNL informed that issue is
already in his notice and the proposal has been approved by MC and approval by
Board is under consideration and asked status from Director HR, who informed
that note sent to all Directors of BSNL Board and their concurrence is expected
shortly. CMD BSNL directed him to look into it personally and see that the same
is approved by remaining Directors and sent to DoT in a day for final approval
of DoT. We requested for payment of pending enhanced IDA with arrears w.e.f.
01/01/2026 in salary of May 2026, CMD added that for that only this action is
being taken and firmly assured for releasing it in Payment of May 2026.
With
all these discussions and assurances, we are hopeful for some positive results
on pending HR issues of the executives. Hope for the best.
