Management seeks deployment of 200 more ITS officers in BSNL– sees growing tendency of indiscipline among deployed (ITS) officers.

The ET Telecom, in it’s edition today, has reported that Shri Arvind Vadnerkar, Director (HR), has written to the DoT, demanding for the deployment of 200 additional ITS officers in BSNL, in addition to the existing 550 ITS officers, already working in the Company, to man important senior managerial posts. It is also reported that the Director (HR) has informed the DoT that, there is a growing tendency of indiscipline among the deployed (read ITS) officers. It must be noted that the ITS Association had questioned the wisdom of the BSNL Management, which has offered VRS to the Group A officers who are already working in BSNL and simultaneously demanding the DoT to send more ITS officers to BSNL.  The ITSA has also sought repatriation back to the DoT, of all the ITS officers working in BSNL, which will help the Company to save money.
