Finally BSNL IQ Booking is Online:  AGM Bldg BSNL CO writes to all Circle Heads regarding supply of data for online booking of BSNL Inspection Quarters within two days in prescribed format for early implementation all over India. Copy<<<>>

Present IQ Booking process is Pencil system and it was on mood of the Officer allotting IQs to whom he gives priority. Many incidents have been notices wherein IQs were unoccupied till the same were not allotted to executives requesting for it. Further charges applied were arbitrary and not properly accounted.

The revenue generated was not accounted properly and hence maintenance of IQs was also poor at majority places except IQs reserved for higher Officers.

Challenges in existing manual booking process was manual booking requests, inconsistent availability status, no visibility for monitoring, non-uniform practices, decentralized information and transparency in allotment.

Taking serious note of all such complaints for many of the executives, SNEA has demanded for online Booking of IQs and it was discussed in different formal agenda meeting and assured by Director HR, but it is finally decided and acted on it now.

CMD BSNL has inaugurated the online booking portal in the presence of the Board of Directors on 24th November 2025. The portal for online booking of BSNL Inspection Quarters has been developed by ITPC Pune.

At present, the IQs of Delhi and Pune have been migrated to the portal. The booking of all BSNL Inspection Quarters should commence through the online IQ booking portal within fifteen days. ITPC Pune is conducting training of Circle Nodals on online booking of BSNL IQs all over India.

The IQ Booking Portal is an in-house web-based solution developed by ITPC Pune, to streamline the booking and management of IQs across BSNL Circles. Shri Vinay Gadekar, SDE ITPC Pune and member of SNEA is nodal officer and has played vital role in developing this IQ Booking portal.

Addl. GM BW BSNL CO writes to all Circle Heads regarding Upkeep & Maintenance of BSNL Colonies & Inspection Quarters. Copy<<<>>

This is good step by BW unit and we must appreciate it. But fact is that after such clear instructions and making funds available, till there will not be any improvement in the cleanliness and maintenance activities of some staff quarters, due to negligent approach by some officers.

Majority of Staff Colonies and Inspection Quarters are in Worst Condition and every time reason given is non-availability of funds, which will not be reason now.

We were surprised that for some Colonies and for some Inspection Quarters funds are available in lakhs of rupees to keep it in best condition and for some Colonies and for some Inspection Quarters funds are not available even in few thousands of rupees, this is nothing but biased approach on inefficiency of certain officers to get funds.

Hopefully now the condition of all BSNL Staff Quarters and Inspection Quarters will improve and will be of leaving standard.

Now it is duty of we all, to take up matter with concerned authorities and see that BSNL Colonies and Inspection Quarters are maintained neat and clean and up to leaving standard. If not, the matter needs to be reported at appropriate level.

SNEA CHQ conveys thanks to Shri. P. Dayal, CGM EW BSNL CO and his team for such good initiatives for improvement of upkeep and maintenance of BSNL Staff Colonies and Inspection Quarters.  

AGM Rectt BSNL CO writes to all Circle Heads regarding notification of LICE for promotion of PA to PS CSSS Cadre in BSNL CO for the VY–2023. Copy<<<>>  RR<<<>>  syllabus<<<>>

This is how the one sided and biased mind amendments in RRs 2023 have adversely impacted on carrier of executives in BSNL and BSNL Money is being wasted on such avoidable exams. This LICE is being conducted only for one post and expenditure on conduction of LICE will be lakhs of rupees.

It is quite possible to create more justified vacancies/restore forcefully abolished vacancies in all cadres and all wings. In present case about 100 officers of DGM and above level are working in Corporate Office and one PA/PS is justified for each officer and about all eligible PAs are getting Pay scales of PS and can be promoted if justification Norms which are wrongly calculated, now there is need of strongest unity. All these PAs are getting salary of PS Grade and there is no expenditure on BSNL.

Thus, BSNL has no expenditure in filling vacant posts as all PAs are getting PS or higher cadres and waiting for their promotion for long time.

But instead of saving money on such wasteful expenditure, BSNL Management is going ahead for LICE with heavy expenditure. 

Update on hearing in E5 to E7 Court case:  Hearing in E5 to E7 Pay scale upgradation case  filed by SNEA was scheduled at CAT Delhi  on  19/11/2025, but the hearing did not reach the serial number of our case and hence was not heard.  Next date of Hearing is 09/02/2026.

Update on Pay loss case filed by SNEA: Hearing in case filed by SNEA on pay loss faced by the  LICE JTO/JAO during JE period was completed 31/10/2024 , but since then it was kept on hold for hearing of another case on same subject matter filed by Shri. Anup Das JTO Kerala.

The case filed by SNEA was responded by reply by BSNL, then rejoinder by SNEA and then heard in detail and after completion of hearing it was listed for final hearing on 31/10/2024.

However on the same day, the applicant in the second OA suddenly requested Hon. Court that their OA being on subject matter, may be tagged with OA of SNEA and prayed that both matters be may be heard jointly and deliberations continued accordingly.

Since then proceedings continued as reply was sought from BSNL and same was not submitted by BSNL to Hon. Court in the last three/four hearings till last hearing.  On submission of reply by BSNL Honourable Court asked applicants in this second OA for filing rejoinder which is normal practice but the advocate of applicant in second OA has conveyed that they do not wish to submit any rejoinder.

Thus after period of one year with no much changes in pleadings and deliberations on subject matter as per deliberations in first case filed by SNEA, the submissions in second OA completed  now and matter in both the cases is posted for final hearing on 02/01/2026.

Let us hope that both these cases are decided by Honourable Court positively in favour of affected JTOs/ JAOs facing loss and all affected executives will get the long awaited justice.  

Update on Contempt Petition on Repatriation of ITS officers from BSNL/MTNL:  The contempt petition in case of Repatriation of ITS officers from BSNL/MTNL filed by SNEA, AIBSNLEA and BSNLEU was heard on 18/11/2025 in  the High Court of Delhi.

This contempt was filed in Year 2013, against non-implementation of judgement on subject matter and hearing in this contempt case is going on for last 12 years.

Counsel for the Petitioner submitted that the Petitioner wished to proceed with the contempt and was about to commence arguments, however, the Counsel appearing for Respondents submitted that they seek to rely upon the documents filed in CONT.(CAS) 243/2013 filed by ITS Officers, and further submitted that the said matter was the lead matter and it was refuted by our advocate.

The Hon’ble Bench observed that there is no distinction as to which matter was the lead matter. However, the Bench opined that it would not be appropriate to begin hearing arguments in the present matter and later face a situation where a party seeks to rely upon pleadings from a matter that has already been withdrawn.

Accordingly, the Honourable Bench directed that the e-file of the pleadings in CONT. (CAS) 243/2013 be tagged along with the present matter within two weeks.

Thereafter, Counsel for the Petitioner submitted that an amendment application, which is miscellaneous in nature, has been pending before the Hon’ble Court for a very long time and requested that it be allowed. The Bench prima facie opined that it may not be inclined to do so, as any amendment may insinuate a fresh cause of action, which may not be permissible in a matter pending since 2013.

Counsel for the Petitioner clarified that the amendment sought is limited to a change in the memo of parties and does not create any fresh cause of action, and submitted that he would satisfy the Hon’ble Court on this aspect when the matter is heard

No one appeared for the Petitioner which is a case filed by MTNL Senior Executives Association.

In CONT. CAS (C) 474/2019, Ld. Counsel for the Petitioner submitted that he wished to continue with the contempt petition. Ld. CGSC appearing for Respondent No. 2 submitted that the Petitioner has been sent on deputation to the Department of Revenue, and therefore the contempt petition is not maintainable against them.

Counsel for the Petitioner submitted in response that the contempt still survives, as deputation does not amount to compliance with the orders passed by this Hon’ble Court.

In view of the above the captioned matter has been adjourned to 20/01/2026 for further proceedings.

SNEA, AIGETOA, SEWA BSNL and AIBSNLEA writes to Respected Shri. Jyotiraditya Scindiaji Honourable Minister of Communications and DoNER requesting for kind intervention on Strong Opposition by Associations of BSNL on the Move of BSNL Management for lateral Recruitment of DR DGMs and SETs with false projection as managerial succession plan of BSNL.  Copy<<<>>

All the associations have unitedly conveyed that present move of Management to recruit SET and DR DGMs from market neglecting inhouse talent has created serious concern and resentment among  thousands of serving executives waiting for their due promotions for years together.

It has been categorically brought to notice of office of Respected MOC that BSNL Management is wrongly projecting this proposal as succession plan for replacement of GM/PGM and CGM level officers working in BSNL on deputation as the officers recruited earlier under similar plan are not allowed to reach these positions as the rules are twisted to the extent that any such  officers recruited for the post of GM /PGM level posts will never reach these positions and hence requested for stopping the proposed recruitment of  SET as well as DR DGM by BSNL.

AGM SCT BSNL CO writes to all Circle Heads regarding Registration of Equal Opportunity Policy (EOP) as per Section 21 of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016. Copy<<<>>

BSNL has signed Memorandum of Understanding with State Bank of India and with Punjab National Bank for Corporate Salary Package for BSNL employees. This MoU is valid for a period of three years from the date of execution.SBI <<<>>  PNB <<<>>

Additionally, BSNL has also signed a separate MoU with SBI and with PNB for Home Loan facility and other Loans at concessional interest rate for BSNL Executives and employees.SBI <<<>>  PNB <<<>>

The Corporate Salary Package under the MoU comes with various benefits viz. Zero balance account for employees and their families, free term insurance, free accidental insurance, free air accidental death insurance, optional family health insurance cover on a payment of very nominal annual premium etc at no cost to executives or employees of BSNL.

Only required on their part is one has to apply for Salary bank account with these banks and all these benefits will be available to them and their family members on selective basis.

We have seen many Executives are not opting for GTI, GHI due to heavy and non-affordable premium and in case of sudden and unfortunate death of executive with no GTI policy, the family members have to face a lot of hardship and difficulties.

Hence, after signing similar MoU by Railways with SBI, SNEA has taken up matter with BSNL Management and with very positive approach Management has come up with supportive step and MOUs are signed with two banks leaving it optional to individual  to decide the bank.

This is good opportunity to each and every executive of BSNL to change/convert  his/her Salary Account either to SBI or PNB and get benefits out of it as these benefits normally available while service in PSUs are not available from BSNL as PSU but the same are available just on having Salary account with SBI and PNB.  

We appreciate efforts of Management for passing on certain benefits to executives in BSNL by signing MoU with different banks making executives eligible for all these benefits.

We appeal to all the executives to go through these MoUs, understand its importance and to shift their salary account to either SBI or PNB as you think fit. We are sharing comparison of benefits by having Salary account at SBI & PNB and its choice to individual to decide the bank. Copy<<<>>

AGM Pers BSNL CO issued modifications in Annual Transfer and Posting Orders of Executives in all wings by giving consideration to the request by individuals on genuine grounds. Copy<<<>>

Since the so called Annual Transfer dated 02/05/2025, this is the third order of modifications giving consideration to the request by individuals on the genuine grounds viz. medical grounds, Immunity as responsible OBs of the Association and by correcting stay particulars by giving due weightage to services rendered at All India Soft Tenure Stations and selective OTP Request Transfers.

Similar requests were given consideration in Modification order dated 30/06/2025, 30/09/2025 but requests of these and many other Executives on similar genuine grounds were not given consideration.

All these executives are representing their grievances and are waiting for justice with prolonged patience and faith for consideration of their requests on genuine grounds and many of them are without salary due to forced ERP relieving by Circles/BAs.

Now also requests of executives with similar genuine grounds rather more critical and serious issues are waiting for justice and unfortunately genuine requests by these executives are not given consideration.

SNEA has brought to the notice of management and how such partial modification gives support to belief of some of the executives that Management is working in a selective manner and consideration to even genuine requests are given consideration on pick and choose basis. Otherwise how OTP requests are given consideration on a pick and choose basis while there are chances of one to one mutual OTP Transfers. 

No Executives is transferred out of Tenure Circle in this order on completion of Tenure at All India Hard Tenure stations but in copy and paste manner, it is written under clause 10 of this modification order that Executives from tenure stations may be relieved only after completion of Tenure.

We have once again consolidated the pending genuine Requests of individuals and we are pursuing with Management for its consideration and we are hopeful for consideration of all these requests on similar genuine grounds. Or consideration of the genuine requests.

Every modification order we have seen the efforts of Management for more transparent working as compared to earlier order and some clarity guidelines are issued in earlier orders requests on self and family medical grounds and now the same are issued for Immunity ground requests.

It is seen that Immunity requests are recommended by Circles properly with strict compliance as per format declared by Pers section and mainly ERP entry of holding post as Office Bearer of Association. It is need of time that on formation of new Body at any level, the entry of OBs eligible for Immunity needs to be made in ERP and the same is missing in many cases and we have taken up these cases a fresh. Meantime DS/CS concerned and individual OBs whose request for grant of immunity is not yet given consideration, are requested to check for ERP entry as OB of SNEA and also to check that the request is duly recommended by Circe Head with all information in prescribed format.

The Circle Heads are directed to send the detailed report on genuineness of medical grounds by constitution of the Circle level committee and reports are to be sent with due recommendations by Circle Heads to Director HR latest by end of November 2025.

Good initiative in this order is that Management has given consideration to the difficulties faced by the executives whose requests were recommended by BAs/Circles and their transfer was deferred, but these Executives were relieved through ERP by Circle/BAs and were facing hardship due to stoppage of payment and now all these executives are restored in ERP and their salary will be restored.

At this stage we convey thanks to Shri. A Robert J Ravi, CMD BSNL, Dr Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director HR and Shri. Rajeev Kumar Kaushik PGM Pers & his team for consideration of Partial Requests out of many representations on genuine grounds and we are hopeful for similar justice to other executives waiting for prolonged faith and patience for consideration of their pending requests on genuine grounds.

We also convey thanks to all these executives for their prolonged patience and strong faith on SNEA and its persuasion for last six months, which is base for this justice prevailed to some of the executives and we assure other similarly affected executives with similar policy guidelines to have some more patience for their turn for justice which will surely prevail in coming days as Management is now considerate on genuine grounds and uniform approach is quite possible on left out cases also.

BSNL Executive Associations Unitedly Protest Against SET Recruitment - Joint Representation Submitted to CMD BSNL :The executive associations of BSNL SNEA, AIGETOA, SEWA, and AIBSNLEA collectively and with unified voice stand against the recently issued notification for the recruitment of Senior Executive Trainee (SET) in Telecom and Finance streams at the E3 pay scale.

A joint letter submitted to the CMD BSNL, demanding immediate withdrawal of the notification and highlighting the widespread resentment among serving executives. Copy<<<>>

The associations have expressed deep anguish and objection over the unilateral decision of the BSNL management to recruit SETs through an open lateral intake without consulting the recognised associations, in violation of the REA Rules 2014.

The Associations Strongly Objected and Pointed Out:

· Complete Disregard for Internal Talent by BSNL Management: The SET recruitment ignores thousands of qualified and experienced executives already serving in BSNL who possess the same or higher qualifications and have 10–27 years of relevant experience.

· Stagnation and Lack of Career Progression: Since inception of BSNL, executives recruited through competitive processes like GATE and internal upgradations have largely remained in the same grade for 8 to 27 years without meaningful promotions.

· Demoralising the Existing Workforce: Bringing in fresh graduates at E3 pay scale without the required experience and placing them above serving JTOs/JAOs and other officers is seen as unjust and demotivating.

·  Ignoring Repeated Representations: This is not the first time such unilateral decisions have been made. Previous requests to prioritise internal promotions and fill key management roles through existing executives have gone unheeded.

·  Biased HR practices: The association highlights past examples such as the discriminatory handling of DR DGM recruitment, where similarly placed BSNL executives were sidelined in favour of external entrants.

· Deliberate Neglection of Internal Talent: Direct recruitment of freshers at higher level than JTO/JAO, while ignoring deserving internal talent and unresolved HR/financial grievances, is unjust, erodes executive trust, and impairs organizational effectiveness.

·  There is huge unrest in BSNL executives because of such unilateral actions by BSNL and it will be difficult to control the emotions of executives if management continues to deny the rightful dues and continues to engage in such unilateral actions. In such scenario, the responsibility of any industrial unrest will lie solely on Management.

Associations Demand :

· Immediate withdrawal of the SET recruitment notification and stop any lateral entry in BSNL as being followed in other PSUs.

·   If any fresh recruitment is to be done then the same should be done in the cadres of JEs and JTOs/JAOs who are backbone of the BSNL. We also demand that instead of having bulk recruitment at JTO/JAOs, BSNL should recruit JTOs/JAOs/JEs every year and it should be regular yearly process.

·     If required, for filling vacant post of GM/PGM level in BSNL, a separate methodology and process may be defined to fill these posts from all the serving executives of BSNL.

·    Stop pick and choose applicability of Rules in BSNL and decide on applicability of rules to BSNL i.e. rules applicable to PSU or rules applicable to Government Services and please apply these rules uniformly for resolution of all issues of BSNL

·     Immediate action for Promotions of BSNL executives waiting for their first promotion. All the executives who have completed the residency in the grade must be extended promotions to the next level without any delay as jointly submitted by us.

·   Discuss the issue of shortage of Officers required at BSNL Managerial Position and to frame a methodology to fill vacant posts as followed in PSUs. 

·  Immediate resolution of the long-pending financial issues of serving BSNL Executives including implementation of 3^rd PRC, extension of E2 scales for JTO/JAO Equivalent, 30 Percent Contribution to Superannuation Benefits, Revision in TA/DA/ Transport allowances, restoration of previous Medical Reimbursement Limits.

·     To Restore the other perks and allowances of serving executives which are presently freezed by quoting financial condition of BSNL should be immediately released.

· As the freeze on external recruitment is removed, immediate start of Compassionate Ground Appointment with consideration of the dependents of all the executives who left for their heavenly abode in all these years.

·    To act in the best interests of both the Executives and the organization.

AGM Rectt BSNL CO issued notification for Direct Recruitment  of freshers for  SET (Senior Executive Trainee) Telecom & Finance wings  through written Competitive Examination. Copy<<<>>

This is one more one sided action by the BSNL management without understanding feelings and practical requirements of BSNL.

This notification is issued without any consultation of Recognised Majority Association and by neglecting stand conveyed by SNEA for no outside recruitment by lateral entry above JTO/JAO. 

Though it is projected that these executives will be part of Management replacing the ITS Officers on deputation in BSNL, from the past experience it is crystal clear that intent of Management was not and it not clear.

Earlier MT recruitment process was struck up in court cases and once court cases are cleared to better extent, Management has modified MTRR before joining of selected executives to extent that these MTs will never reach to the position of GMs or for which they were specially recruited.

Now this SET is revised version of MTs and if the MTs who will be senior to SET will not able to reach this position , how this SET will reach this position as being projected by Management is real question to be answered. 

It is unfortunate that in the last 25 years of formation of BSNL, no action has been taken by BSNL Management and administrative Ministry DoT for having its own Management, but efforts were always done for allowing deputation of ITS Officers against all orders and even with undertaking submitted in court cases by DoT not to depute any ITS officer to BSNL after 2014.

The option chosen by present BSNL management by issuing one sided SET notification, is nothing but putting salt on wounds of thousands of highly qualified and experienced Executives in BSNL who are compelled for working on degraded pay scales for years together.

In BSNL JTOs are recruited through GATE Entrance Examination  and JAOs are recruited with higher Educational qualifications CA/ M. Com and their pay scales are reduced from E1A to E1 and now this SET recruitment is proposed at E3 pay scales all fresher with Engineering Graduation are eligible for the same and Experienced BSNL Executives with same or higher educational qualification are denied this opportunity.

For whatever may be the reason, but Management is of the opinion and projecting that these 97 Fresh SETs will change the fate and future of BSNL which is not possible for existing 29000 Executives serving in the BSNL.

Thus management is indirectly or directly doubting the capabilities and strength of serving BSNL Executives, and this is not a good sign for bright future of the BSNL as desired by Respected MoSC, Respected MoC and Honourable Prime Minister of India.  

SNEA is taking up this issue for stopping the outsider recruitment of SET with lateral entry above the level of JTO/JAO and we will fight for justice to the serving executives.
