Issuing Presidential Orders to the employees recruited by DoT before formation of BSNL – BSNLEU once again writes letter to the Hon’ble Minister of Communications demanding implementation of the order of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India dated 26.07.2023.

As all are aware, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has already given a judgement, wherein it is stated that, the employees recruited by the DoT before formation of BSNL on 01.10.2000, but were appointed by BSNL, should be treated as DoT recruitees, for whom Presidential Orders should be issued. It is unfortunate that, the DoT has taken a decision that the benefit of this judgement would be given only to the employees who filed the case. BSNLEU is repeatedly writing letters to the Hon’ble Minister of Communications, requesting that the judgement of the Hon’ble Supreme Court should be made applicable to all the employees recruited by the DoT before formation of BSNL. Under these circumstances, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has given a judgement in another case, viz., Civil Appeal No.1943 of 2022, in the case of LT. COL. SUPRITA CHANDEL Versus UNION OF INDIA and OTHERS, wherein it is stated that a judgement delivered by the court, should be applied to all the affected persons. Citing this judgement, BSNLEU has once again written letter to the Hon’ble Minister of Communications today, demanding that the Supreme Court judgement dated 26.07.2023 should be made applicable to all the employees recruited by the DoT before formation of BSNL, but who where appointed by BSNL.
