BSNLEU once again writes to the Director (HR), demanding implementation of DoP&T instructions, regarding the treatment of the period of absence by officials, during the lock-down period.

The DPE has already issued instructions that, the period of absence of officials, who are held up in far off places, during the lock-down period, should be treated as on duty. BSNLEU has already written three letters to the Director (HR), as well as the Sr.GM(Estt.) demanding implementation of this DPE letter by BSNL. The issue has been discussed telephonically many times with the officers also. Meanwhile, DoP&T has issued another letter on 21.08.2020, insisting implementation of it’s earlier letter, by the Public Sector Enterprises. Based on this, BSNLEU has once again written to the Director(HR) today, demanding implementation of the DPE's directives.
