Downgradation of Sr.TOA pay scale - BSNLEU seeks settlement by utilising the provision of NEPP.

BSNLEU is seriously trying to settle the problem of downgradation of the Sr. TOAs, from 7100 pay scale to 6550 pay scale. Discussion with the CMD BSNL in this regard, has broken the ice. Follow up discussions are taking place with the Establishment Branch of the Corporate Office. In this connection, BSNLEU has demanded settlement of this issue, by utilising clause 6.4 of the NEPP, which states that all pay scale upgradations given under OTBP/ BCR/ ACP, after 01-10-2000 and before introduction of NEPP, shall be treated as upgradation under NEPP.
