Show the courage to share open stand in SDE seniority: Without Hide-and-seek

It is seen that some proclaimed associations started to sing the false propaganda on seniority. Many times we have seen these people, who always change colors by seeing who will be the beneficiary for promotions. Their heartburn stooped to such a low level on actual Rota Quota following and they pretend to be masters by twisting the facts to cheat their own BSNL recruit members. It is already known to one and all in BSNL that in the DoPT case (JTO cader) dispute was on 1:1  inter se seniority with Rota Quota which merit was equally beneficial for BSNL direct recruit & BSNL recruit LICE JTO batches. By wrong awarding backdated YOR there were thousands of employees who were made into JTO cader by taking DR JTOs quota in excess of their stipulated PR quota and this was the injustice questioned in the DoPT JTO cader case. Earlier the same people argued that the Rota Quota was broken in JTO seniority and the Hon’ble court denied such arguments and gave a clear verdict that Rota Quota 1:1 needs to be followed in JTO cader and based on that the promotions were held. Their other allegation was about contempt case pending and that was also faded away when the recent DPC promotions happened where the contempt petition is still on. Since most of the backdated year of recruitment absorbed employees are retired, the practical change of this order is not much visible. Thus the issues created by these legacy associations with respect to JTO seniority were cleared up by the efforts of AIGETOA. On similar lines, the Rota Quota needs to be followed in SDE seniority also ie 2:1 with Rota Quota. For which AIGETOA is trying its level best to protect the seniority as envisaged in DoPT and SDE RR-2002 along with executive instructions. We cannot change the stand and rules cannot be disregarded on convenience by checking who is beneficiary.

Now the masters of false propagandas should come up and openly tell whether they are ready to follow Rota Quota in SDE cader with 2:1 for Vacancy years 2006-07 onwards? Are they not knowing DoPT / DoT directions in this regard? Do they have the courage to share their stand openly whether they support the recent absurd speaking order issued in SDE seniority? Let their colors be known to all LDCE-2012 qualified executives. What they have done for the promotion of LDCE-2007 qualified executives?  Why they are seeking only for left-out List 6 & 7 AGM promotions? In fact, their hue and cry of CPSU stopped on 29-06-2018 when huge AGM promotions through matching saving but at the same time, their member made legal hurdles that further List 8 LDCE-2007 promotions stopped by catch up rule litigation. They agreed to CPSU proposal with 12-year residency to DE/ AGM, with E1 Scale in JTO/JAO, without any plan for reservation which would have made for further litigation on implementation. What plan do they have to avoid stagnation in JTO/SDE caders? What’s their stand on Internal Fast track promotion coined by AIGETOA? AIGETOA, in the year 2009 proposed contemporary CPSU which was not having any such issues and it was easy for implementation at that time. Even by now why they are advocating for vacancy years to exclude BSNL recruits?

Anyway past is past and we have one piece of advice to them – don’t fool the LDCE qualified executives and stop play with proxy association letters. Be clear on your stand on SDE Seniority and tell the same with your LDCE-2007 / 2012 passed executives. We request these legacy associations not to keep heartburn and shed off the responsibility to support in the execution of promotions and fast track methods which will be the motivating force for career progression and work together for protection for cader rights and executive welfare. AIGETOA will pave the way with conviction and propose the strategies.
