Another Landmark Judgment from Madras CAT - Condemnable act of BSNL-(Mis) Management
The Hon'ble Madras Bench of CAT has come heavily on the malice acts of BSNL management in SURINDER KUMAR vs BSNL & others.
After getting favourable judgment from EPFO in respect of Para 32 violation of EPF Scheme, Shri Surinder Kumar JAO (AGS AIGETOA) was transferred vindictively and arbitrarily from STR Chennai to Cuddalore (Tamil Nadu Circle) without TA/DA and joining time.
The writ petition was filed, challenging his 5th transfer in the short period of 2.5 years to Cuddalore; and Hon'ble Madras High Court was pleased to stay the transfer at the time of admittance of writ itself. While adjudicating the matter, the Hon'ble Madras CAT categorically concluded that this transfer was effected by BSNL management on Malice, Arbitrariness and Unfound facts. The Hon'ble CAT also adjudicated that the transfer was effected in violation of BSNL's Transfer Policy.
As members are aware that Shri Surinder Kumar has been exposing the wrongdoers in BSNL since his appointment, was in the hit-list of these honchos. While working at Madurai, he exposed the corruption of Rs 26 lakhs, where STR Chennai purchased DWDM transmission accessories at exorbitant price of Rs 61 lakhs as against the fair price of Rs 35 lakhs. Similarly, while working at Chennai he exposed the corruption of several crores of Rupees, where part of V-SAT equipments were purchased from SSI's. But, BSNL-(Mis)Management each time rewarded him with transfers.
Even at one point in time, BSNL-(Mis) Management pigheadedly went on declaring him surplus so that he could be taken into task. BSNL shamelessly defended each of its malicious and arbitrary act. The Hon'ble CAT, however, concluded that every transfer was carried out with malice attitude. Click Here for Copy of the Judgment
We request CMD BSNL to take disciplinary action against those who were involved in such an unethical, unprofessional and anti business deeds targeting the whistle-blowing acts of Shri Surinder Kumar.
CHQ AIGETOA appreciates the efforts taken by Shri Surinder Kumar for defending his case with courage and determination also appreciates Shri Shilohu Rao President CHQ, Shri Karthikeyan CS -TN Circle and Shri Senthil Kumar CS- Chennai Circle for bighearted support to Mr Surinder Kumar (AGS, AIGETOA) throughout the case helping him to get justice.

Subject : Land Mark Judgment from CAT Chennai
Land Mark Judgment from Chennai CAT regarding MT exams: Another Slap on the HR Managers of BSNL
Recent past we have witnessed the “intellectual atrocities” committed by the HR managers of BSNL over SC/ST Executives and Employees like non compliance to the constitutional provisions (roster policy, relaxations etc) for the promotion & welfare of the SC/ST employees. Our Chennai Circle President Shri Kannan and TN Organizing Secretary Shri Kripa Shanker filed petitions regarding the pre-recruitment training for the SC/ST officers appearing in MT and other departmental exams as per the provisions existing in the law of the nation and instructions from the PMO. How ever BSNL replied shamelessly to the honorable court that the pre-recruitment training is only meant for Group “C” and “D” posts and has no policy guidelines on imparting the pre-recruitment training for the executive post like Group “A” despite existing guidelines from the DoPT and PMO. This classical interpretation received heavy beatings from the Hon'ble Judges and directed management to issue reasonable order within 4 weeks for the pre recruitment training for the SC/ST candidates and this reveals the attitude of BSNL management towards the SC/ST employees. Click here for CAT order
From this episode one can understand the concept of “Glass ceiling” towards SC/ST employees and their welfare in the BSNL. Management of BSNL does not want SC/ST employees to occupy the management services posts (like DE/AGM/CAO) and indirectly pointing that SC/ST candidates are meant for the Group “C” and “D” posts and management happy to provide such training for Group “C” and “D” posts. This act of management is highly condemnable and officers responsible to giving such misleading interpretation should be punished with immediate effect.
AIGETOA always remained for the cause of justice and protection of its SC/ST members with this judgment BSNL has to impart pre-recruitment training for the SC/ST and Minority internal candidates before the conducting MT Exam and exams like LDCE,LICE etc. CHQ appreciates the efforts taken by the CHQ legal team, Shri A Kannan, Circle President-Chennai, Shri Kripa Shanker, Org.Sec-TN and Shri S.S Karthikeyan, Circle Secretary, Tamil Nadu for inspiring and supporting this case right from the beginning.

Subject : gs write to dir(hrd) regarding gm(SR) letter
GS writes letter to Director (HR) regarding unwarranted and offensive letter issued by GM (SR) which is indirect threat to employee especially direct recruit. Click for letter
It is reliably learnt that one of ITS officer sitting in the corporate office, New Delhi has circulated a group e-mail to ITS officers in field to trap the direct recruits against the false cases of insubordination, disobedience or disrespect so that our voice against their deputation can be stopped. All the members are appealed to be careful of some vindictive ITS officers and show the unity against any such cases. AIGETOA CHQ has already taken up this matter with Director (HR) and hope that we will get justice.

Subject : Filling of writt by DR....an act of.. letter by GM (SR)
Filling of writt petition by the Direct recruit JTOs/JAOs against the continuation of ITS Group-A officers in BSNL- any act of insubordination not to be tolerated- instruction regarding. By Shri Shakeel Ahmad GM (SR).. Click here for letter
What GM (SR) wants to communicate to CGMs/PGMs by using word “not to be tolerated”. Content of the letters is highly provoking as well as confusing as it is not clear that what should be conveyed to the members. Whether the executives or specially the Direct Recruits:
1.
Should not file the cases against deputation of ITS or
2.
Has no right to go against ITS officers or
3.
Should not utter any voice to protest
against injustice or wrongs done to them.
It is supposed that all CGMs/PGMs are having very good knowledge of BSNL CDA rules and they are competent enough to act against any insubordination and disobedience. No where it is mentioned in the BSNL CDA rules that before taking action against insubordination, disobedience and disrespect, approval of GM (SR) is required. In this situation teaching fresh lesson of BSNL CDA rules to them is clear insult and underestimation of their administrative skills.
What we infer from this letter is that, insubordination was allowed so for but as some DRJTOs/DRJAOs have challenged the deputation of ITS in the court of law so now it should be dealt with hot stick. We can not understand the motto behind writing such a letter in connection with case filed in the court of law by some DRJTOs/DRJAOs. This seems to be a letter which can create unpleasant situation in field units as it seems to have directly targeted to our group by clever manipulation of the words.
Filing of court cases or going to court to seek justice is not new in BSNL. Perhaps the system in which we are working leaves employees with no other option but to go to court to seek justice or remedy against their grievances. The letter also gives an impression that now when Direct recruits have started following the same path, they should be dealt with hot stick. in the said letter instead of using the words "some of executives" GM SR has used the words " Some of the Direct recruit JTOs/JAOs " . These word it self reflects the motto.
AIGETOA CHQ has also taken this matter to Director (HR) regarding unnecessary provoking letter issued by GM (SR) and using offensive words like “not to be tolerated”. Director (HR) has clearly told that this is not in his knowledge. This means GM (SR) has written this offensive letter in his personal capacity and it is also reflected from the content of the letter that approval of competent authority has not been taken. Is not it the act of insubordination, for writing such kind of unnecessary provoking letter to the circle heads without knowledge and approval of Director (HR)? This is not the first time when GM (SR) has written such letters against the direct recruit without knowledge of Director (HR) but various such letters have been issued in past also.
This letter can give power to some vindictive ITS officers in fields to target direct recruits of BSNL.
GS appeals to the members without tolerating any vindictive action by any officers, concentrate on work for welfare of the company as matter regarding root cause of bad health of our beloved company i.e. ITS deputation has already been taken up in the court of law.
GM (SR) is very well known about the CDA rule in BSNL and can act offensively on the basis of prediction of insubordination, disobedience and disrespect but he has forgot that he is also covered by some CDA rules. As per the CDA rule he should have left the BSNL as and when his deputation was over without waiting of reliving order and further extension else as per the CDA rule he is the guilty of major penalty.
This association advice GM (SR) instead of teaching lesson to CGMs/PGMs regarding BSNL CDA rule he should spare some time to read DOT CDA rule. This association is very much sure that he will find himself the guilty of insubordination, disobedience and disrespect. We also appeal to GM (SR) that he should refrain from writing such unnecessary and provoking letters using offensive words which can create unpleasant situation in the field units.
Our endeavor to create amicable work environment in
BSNL should not be treated at all as our weakness and our unity should not be
undermined or under estimated.

Subject : meeting with Director (HR) on 24th June 2010
GS Shri R P Shahu along with AGS Shri Amit Roy and President AIGETOA Delhi Shri D P S Chawla met Director (HR). GM (Pers) and GM (Recruitment) were also present. Meeting was very positive and in cordial atmosphere. Some issues like 30% superannuation benefit for BSNL recruited executives as per the second pay recommendation and LDCE for TES Group-B were discussed. Director (HR) informed that he has already started the process for 30% superannuation benefit with positive approach. After giving patience listening about enhancement of syllabus by almost three times and putting negative marking system in the proposed LDCE he assured us to look into the matter and instructed GM (Pers) and GM (Recruitment) to analyze the case on priority basis.
Regarding holding the examination on 4th July we have been informed that BSNL management has filed appeal today in the Hon’ble High Court New Delhi against the provisional order issued by P-CAT New Delhi in LDCE for SDE (T) which is expected to be list tomorrow. It is also informed that BSNL Management will try their level best to achieve the stay on the provisional order issued by P-CAT New Delhi and conduct the exam on scheduled date but as petitioners have already filed caveat in the Hon’ble high court so before issuing any stay on the interim order of P-CAT New Delhi petitioner will be given due chance to be hear. This examination can be hold on scheduled date only if BSNL management will be succeeded in getting stay on the interim order issued by P-CAT New Delhi.
Situation is very much clear from the above development that LDCE exam is going to be postponed as it is very tough to issue the notice to the petitioners for giving them chance to be heard and then issuing stay order in such short period. We are expecting that BSNL management will review the situation by tomorrow itself and take final decision on holding the examination so that circle management along with candidates can be informed well in time. AIGETOA still appeal the members to keep their preparation continue till the final order issued for the postponement of the examination.
