It is now confirmed by DOT that the new amendment of pension rules  by DOP&PW is applicable to the absorbed employees of BSNL , so that every one completed 20 years is qualified for full pension and applicable from 1-1-2006 onwards. Click for order

Dear Direct recruited B.Tech Graduate ( self-ashamed to call as Engineer )......
When are you going to get same CTC as your colleague BSNL absorbee ?
Where is your 30% superannuation benefit while 20 years is enough for full pension for promotees?
Do you know you work hard to pay for the pension contribution for your colleague?

..............Pathetic, really pathetic Direct Recruit

We cant hold this article unpublished any more......
It may not digest for many....
Some times truth is blunt..it may not pierce; it will bruise and leave the pain and puss for long

A rat race is a term used for an endless,self-defeating or pointless pursuit.

In BSNL we can see so many Direct Recruits competing against each other to prove that one is better than the other in front of our Promoted senior staff’s. We DR’s will do the job of JTO/ SDE/ DE. Our DE’s & SDE’s will also encourage it, so that they can relax. All Direct Recruits are working & working

& working…………… Can any Direct Recruit find a similar promoted JTO/SDE/DGM (only a few brilliant exceptions) struggling so hard to prove who is better amongst themselves or someone who works after 5 pm in our telephone exchanges except on shift duty. In most of our customer centers; staff stop collecting BSNL bills by 4pm (2pm in some places) even when people are standing in queue to pay the bills. Hard work is important but Hard Work alone is not going to get us things done.

We Direct Recruits have all sorts of problems in BSNL. EPF issue, Pay anomaly issue, least superannuation contribution, non-implementation of DoPT guidelines—No Promotion. Who is going to come for us. Some are waiting for Gods to come as an avatar amongst us to solve all our problems.

Has any Direct Recruits thought why we only have problems?

We DR’s don’t stand united. We mistrust our leaders. We take every opportunity to prove who is smarter  amongst us. We split the platform , erase the voice! 

There are some DR’s who owe allegiance to AIGETOA but never contribute a single rupee but will have 1001 questions. What are you doing with the money collected; who are these leaders to tell us; who elected you as President/ Secretary. The questions are endless.

There is another set of DR’s who owe their allegiance to other associations. For getting good postings and

for staying close to their homes, they make other DR’s a scapegoat. Is there any thing common between an Eagle and a Chicken; they both share the same planet. 

Those DR’s forgot the facts, the people with whom they sit are the ones who brought down their pay scale from E2 to E1A during 2002 pay-revision. The creators of E1A.

Those DR’s forgot the fact that for our Promotees they have nothing to lose. Majority of our promotees will retire in this decade, whether the company runs or not is not their headache. Most of them have already completed 20 years of service making them eligible for full pension. The 23-28% of Basic + DA is contributed by BSNL to DOT's Central Government pension fund to provide pension to this huge mass. Understand, the total mass eligible for this pension is around 40 Thousand Group B and 2.5 Lakhs Group C&D.  Hence monthly contribution even if average salary taken as 25K including DA will be approx 6000 per month per employee. Around 10K DR's are in service with average salary 30K , BSNL contributes 3000 per month per DR. Just half

Compare the productivity earned! DOES IT MATCH?

Compare the Cost to Company! DOES IT MATCH?

What about post retirement life?

Central government pension		EPF pension
varies with CDA		fixed
Revised with Pay Revision		Pay has no impact on pension at all
Average of last 12 months pay x No years of service divided by 70		6500 x No years of service divided by 70
No ceiling		Ceiling at 6500 (now)
23-28% of basic + DA contributed by BSNL		Only 13.61% of BASIC + DA contributed by BSNL
what is the pension received assuming present pay scale
2030@ E1	[16400 + 9840(DA)] *30/70=11250	6500 (ceiling) *30/70= 2785

“Truth will set you free”.

How the 2005 batch pay anomaly was solved?

Simple, they all united under one banner, raised their voices in one platform. All the meetings they made the
prime agenda is their pay anomaly .They took the organization with their shoulders, made the association fight for them. Association is only a tool and support platform, it is its members who actually give it life and legacy. Together as a one bunch 2005 batch fought and made seniors to join their fight. Finally BSNL Management bowed to the spirit and unity. Never they stood separately or formed a separate body for their cause.

“Together we WON”

Gone are the days when our parents stood up for us in the school and college, we are all Grown-Ups. We have to stand for ourselves. Solving the pay issue alone is not the end of the world. 

The utmost is Our Unity, Our Company, 

Our pride being an Engineer,

Qualified through questions prepared by IITs,

Selected bests from lakhs all over India.

Why that when pay protection is going to be ensured some one else is protesting against what they call “demotion of JTO’s”. Whom are they fighting for?, You have to ask that question to yourself. Are they protecting someone else in your name, ask your soul; ask your so called comrades.

Do you know about our Promotees & Non-executive associations, they will never question their leaders.

But a DR will ask!

Why?

We are qualified to Know

We have an Urge to Know the facts

We don't wait till the dawn , But We will
Lit a Light to See

.
Now
 its the 
time

Lit a light

See Around,

Together We Will
