JTO to SDE Promotions under SCF Quota:

It's learnt that a contempt petition was moved at Hon CAT Ernakulum - for violation of Hon CAT interim directions given on 14/6/18, which was made in line with HC judgement for effecting 1:1 promotions with DRs and Excess quota occupied PRs Or else through an Integrated AIEL with all eligible JTOs. The case has been posted for detailed hearing on 22nd June 2018.

Interestingly, efforts by some to seek justice for the whole cadre has been highlighted by some as DRs are against promotion of PR Officers. It is informed to one and all that none of the petitioner is interested in seeking stay on already issued promotion orders as all are aware that how difficult, it is to get promotion in BSNL. DRs cannot act in vengeance and hence instead of wasting time in concentrating what others are doing, those corners should concentrate on ensuring promotions to all. We are asking for issuance of promotion orders as per the directions of the court which should have contained the list of DRs also despite the malice agenda of some corners to bar DR from regular promotion list for that we are willing to go to any extent.

It's a fact that recently promoted SCF quota includes almost 3117 PRs and 22 DRs of which around 1700+ PRs, appointed as JTOs from 2001 to 2007 period while interim promotions should have been made to 1:1 as Hon Court judgements which should have contained the name of DRs up to 2007-8 batches. But due to the hasty pacing and quest for not keeping BSNL recruits in the list, they debarred many DRs as well as PRs from promotions despite having vacancies in the tune of thousands. Instead of accepting the fault, now they are trying to malign those who are fighting for DR rights through which even PRs are going to be benefitted.

Instead of working for all who are due for promotions, some corners are still throwing stones against BRs promotions and trying to push them to CPSU to make DRs lose their precious service weightage as well as increments. Yes, AIGETOA is of the firm stand that every DR/BR/PR should get promotions, if he has more than 3 years of eligible service as per SDE RR and if sufficient vacancies are available (more than 7000+ vacancies). We request others to also concentrate on the same instead of maligning others.
