A meeting of the Group Term Insurance (GTI) Committee was held in the Corporate Office yesterday, to discuss and finalise the terms and conditions of the GTI. From the Official Side, Shri Saurabh Tyagi, Sr.GM(Estt.), Shri A.M. Gupta, Sr.GM(SR), Shri Ashutosh Gupta, GM(Admn.), Shri P.D. Chirania, GM(Fin-CFA),  and Shri Trivedi, GM(Admn.),  participated. Representative of the LIC was also present in the meeting. Com.R.S. Chauhan, Vice President(CHQ), represented BSNLEU in this meeting and articulated the view points of the Union, with reference to the proposals made by LIC. 

He firmly argued that the condition stipulated by LIC that, at least 70% of the Non-Executives should join this GTI scheme, should be removed, since practically 70% of the Non-Executives will not join the scheme. Com.R.S. Chauhan, also pointed out at the disparity between the premium prescribed for the Executives and Non-Executives and demanded that  the same should be removed. He demanded that the premium of the Non-Executives also should be fixed at Rs.1.60 per 1,000, instead of Rs. 1.80 per 1000. Further, Com.R.S. Chauhan, demanded that, after joining the GTI, if a Non-Executive gets promoted as an Executive, then, he should be permitted to migrate to the GTI scheme of the Executives. All the view points of BSNLEU, placed before the Committee, by Com.R.S. Chauhan, Vice President (CHQ), were appreciated by the Management Side. It is also decided that, expeditious steps would be taken, so as to implement the GTI scheme to the Non-Executives, w.e.f. 01^st March, 2021.
