Contempt of Court in the IDA Freezing case - General Secretary holds discussion with the advocate.

The Hon’ble Kerala High Court has already given judgement that, the IDA freezing order, issued by the DPE on 19^th November, 2020, is not applicable to the Non-Executives of BSNL. As per the court order, the IDA instalments that have become due w.e.f. 01.10.2020 and 01.01.2021 should immediately be paid to the Non-Executives of BSNL. Immediately after the judgement, BSNLEU wrote a letter to the Secretary, DPE, demanding implementation of the court order. However, the DPE has merely written a letter to the DoT on this matter. BSNLEU also wrote a letter to the Secretary, Telecom. However, the DoT and the BSNL Management are also remaining silent and have not taken any action. Under these circumstances, Com.P.Abhimanyu, GS, held discussion with our Advocate today. He has suggested that a contempt of court petition should be filed against the Secretary, DPE, the Secretary, DoT and the CMD BSNL. The advocate has agreed to take needful action.
