Implement special norms for the sanctioning of manpower for the circles with hilly and far-flung terrains – BSNLEU writes letter to the CMD BSNL.

It is a matter of regret that, the BSNL Management is adopting uniform norms for the sanctioning of manpower for the circles with hilly and far-flung terrains and also circles located in the plains. BSNLEU has already raised the demand that special norms should be adopted for the sanctioning of manpower for the circles having hilly and far-flung terrains. This issue was also discussed with the Director (HR) by BSNLEU. However, it is a matter of regret that the BSNL Management has not applied it’s mind to the genuineness of the demand being raised by BSNLEU. Recently, Com.P.Abhimanyu, General Secretary, attended meetings of the circles of Himachal Pradesh, NE-I and NE-II. In those meetings, manpower issue is raised prominently. Practically, there is shortage of manpower in these circles. However, as per record, these circles are having surplus manpower. As a result, no vacancy is coming up in the LICEs conducted in these circles. In view of this, BSNLEU has once again written letter to the CMD BSNL today, demanding to implement special norms for the sanctioning of manpower to the circles with hilly and far-flung terrains.
