Issuing Presidential Orders to the employees recruited and sent for training by the DoT, but appointed after 01.10.2000 – BSNL refers the letter of BSNLEU and other Unions and Associations to the DoT.

BSNLEU is continuously demanding that, the employees recruited and sent for training by the DoT, but were appointed by BSNL after 01.10.2000, should be issued with Presidential Orders and should be made eligible for government pension. Many Benches of the CAT and High Court have given judgement in favour of the affected employees. However, the BSNL Management filed an SLP in the Supreme Court, against those judgements. Undoubtedly, BSNL Management has filed SLP in the Supreme Court only as per the direction of the DoT. BSNLEU is continuously writing letters to the Secretary, Telecom, CMD BSNL and the Director (HR). Other Unions and Associations have also taken up this issue. Now, the BSNL Management has written a letter to the DoT, referring to the letters written by BSNLEU and other Unions and Associations and requesting the DoT to look into the matter.
