========================================================================

[06.01.2010]Wage Meeting on 5th January 2010:- In the Wage Negotiation Committee meeting held today, 5th January 2010 the draft agreement was discussed. Agreement reached on most of the items. The staff side wanted the span of the pay scales to be increased to avoid stagnation. The Management insisted on abolition of uniform supply, which the unions strongly opposed. These two points will be examined by the management. The next meeting is fixed on 7th January to finalise the agreement since there is a meeting on BSNL issues called by the Prime Minister. On 6th January.

[06.01.2010]MASSIVE DEMONSTRATIONS ON 5TH JANUARY 2010:- Massive Demonstrations were organised All over the Country participated by Thousands of Executives and Non-Executives demanding issue of purchase order for 93 Million GSM Lines for BSNL which is blocked by BSNL Board.

The Union representatives conveyed their concern at the delay in the procuring of the 93 million GSM lines for BSNL and also requested his intervention in the matter.

The Minister was positive on both the issues.

[04.01.2010] General Secretary Meets CMD: - Com. V.A.N Namboodiri, General Secretary, BSNLEU along with Coms. Dhiraj Chaudhary and Manish Samadhiya (SNATTA) met Shri Kuldeep Goyal, CMD, BSNL on 04.01.2010 and discussed about the relaxing of service condition of 7 years to 5 years for appearing in the JTO promotional examination. They pointed out that as done in the case of examination to JAO, the service condition of 7 years should be reduced five, since there are only very few eligible officials and more vacancies are there.

CMD gave a patient hearing and agreed to favorably examine the case.

[01.01.2010]IDA increased from January, 2010:- IDA increase is due w.e.f. 01.01.2010 9.4% on existing (basic pay + DP) and 5.6% on revised basic pay. Orders may be issued later.

[09.12.2009]Historic Agreement signed today, (9-12-2009), on settlement of Pay Anomalies/Aberrations:- Due to point to point fixation of pay on conversion from CDA to IDA pay scales on 1-10-2000, in several cases the seniors in higher pay scales got less than their juniors in lower pay scales.

In MTNL, it couldn’t be settled since there was no rule to settle it. In BSNL, when NFTE took up the case, the management convinced them that it is not possible to settle these anomalies.

After getting recognition, the BSNLEU and United Forum took up the issue seriously and a Committee was constituted with management and union representatives for settlement of these anomalies. The Committee gave its report for settling these anomalies as per Revised Pay Rules applicable for Central Government Employees and it was sent for the approval of DoT.

The DoT sent back the file with the objection that the Revised Pay Rules were not applicable for settling these anomalies/aberrations since it was conversion from CDA to IDA Pay Scales and was not pay revision.

Thereafter a Committee was constituted under the chairmanship of Shri P.K.Misra, DGM (Estt.) Consisting of representatives of the management and Union to recommend how to settle these anomalies. The Committee met several times and finally an agreement is signed to day (9-12-2009) between the Official and Staff sides. The agreement is that the difference in the pay between the junior in the lower pay scale and the senior in the higher pay scale as on 1-10-2000 will be paid as Personal Pay to the Senior.

The Staff Side in the Committee was represented by Com V.A.N.Namboodiri GS BSNLEU and Com P.Asokababu AGS BSNLEU. <<< Copy of the agreement >>>

==========================================================The Central Executive Committee meeting of BSNLEU will be held at Bhopal, from 14th to 16th February, 2010.
