New Promotion Policy for Non-Executives – Com. Animesh Mitra, GS, meets CMD BSNL seeking intervention.

In the 40th National Council Meeting, it was decided to constitute a Committee to review the Non-Executive Promotion Policy (NEPP). However, even after 15 months, no meeting of the Committee has been held with the Recognised Unions. Com. Animesh Mitra, GS, met the CMD BSNL on 20th April 2026 and expressed strong dissatisfaction over the indifferent attitude of the HR Administration at the Corporate Office. He also highlighted the deep grievances of the Non-Executives arising out of the anomalies between the Non-Executive Promotion Policy (NEPP) and the Executive Promotion Policy (EPP). He pointed out that although a Committee was constituted in April 2025 under the chairmanship of the PGM (Admn.), no meeting has been conducted so far with the Recognised Unions to discuss their demands and views. He conveyed his deep resentment regarding this delay and urged the CMD BSNL to personally intervene in the matter so that the committee meeting is convened at the earliest, paving the way for finalising a New Promotion Policy for Non-Executives. The CMD BSNL assured that the issue would be looked into on a priority basis. A letter on the subject is enclosed herewith.
