AGM
Estt BSNL CO writes Circle Heads clarifying the issues raised by the Circles in
dealing with Rule 8 Requests transfers after implementation of Rule 8 Transfers
in Online mode. Copy<<<>>
On
implementation of online mode, Circles have raised certain doubts in dealing
with the Pending Rule 8 transfers and now Estt Section BSNL CO has cleared all
these doubts and it will surely help in issuing Rule 8 Transfers on fast track
mode.
SNEA
conveys sincere thanks to Shri.
S.P. Singh, PGM Estt BSNL CO and his team of Establishment
Section for clearing all such doubts by field units and expediating process of pending
Rule 8 Transfers in different Circles.
Now,
mainly issue remaining is consideration of Rule 8 request transfers to Surplus Circles,
relieving of JTOs held up at deficit Circles and mainly at all India hard
tenure Circles and special consideration of Rule 8/9 requests on spouse working
grounds.
SNEA
is pursuing for all these issues by actions like holding early LICE for vacant
posts, counting JTO vacancies by excluding registered online Rule 8 requests of
JTOs, SDE Promotions for JTO vacancies in surplus Circles, and posting willing
SDEs for all India Hard Tenure stations as stop gap arrangement for substitutes
to JTOs waiting for rule 8 transfers etc. Let us hope that Major issues related
to Rule 8 & Rule 9 requests transfers are cleared b such special initiatives
by Estt Section BSNL CO.
Update on SNEA Pay Loss Case at CAT Ernakulum: The Pay Loss case filed by SNEA was held on 31/12/2024. While the application filed by SNEA has progressed to the hearing stage, a subsequent case filed by a petitioner Shri. Anoop Das, JTO Kerala and others on the same subject matter has resulted in the clubbing of both cases together and a delay in the hearing in SNEA case due to this latter case being in the admission phase. The next date of hearing 11/03/2025. Court Order I <<<>> Court Order II <<<>>
After Pers section, now SEA and EW units have issued letters
showing Circle wise strength of Executives thereby declaring Surplus, just
sufficient and Deficit Circle for submission of OTP requests through Online
Transfer Portal (OTP) window for January 2025. SEA<<<>> Elect<<<>>
Similar letter for Civil wing Executives by BW units should have
been issued, but same is not yet issued and we are pursuing for the same.
Opening of OTP window for January 2025:
AGM Pers BSNL CO issued orders for opening of OTP window for online request
transfers of Executives. Copy<<<>>
Accordingly
OTP window will be opened at 0000 Hrs today Night i.e. 16/01/2025 and will be
Open till night of 31/01/2025.
As
per this letter, the Circle wise status of SDEs and AGMs is declared as Surplus
Circles, Deficit Circles and just sufficient Circles and Executives have to
submit the OTP Option accordingly.
All
the Requests to Deficit and Just Sufficient Circles will be given consideration
and requests to Surplus Circles will not be given consideration. But SNEA has taken
up the issue for consideration of requests to the extent of outgoing OTP requests
from these Circles and we are hopeful for its consideration.
As
per letter, the executives are requested to submit three choices of circle for
inter circle transfer through OTP window, preferably for Deficit Circle, so
that request may be considered for their choice circle subject to
administrative constraint.
But,
as this is Own Cost Request Transfers, it is up to the concerned SDE/AGM where
he has to opt for three choices or limit his/her choice/option/request to only
to choice Circle.
It
may be noted that though the executives think that posting will be done as per
the preferences given by him/her, but practically while considering posting,
one may be posted to any of the choice Circle, he/she has submitted.
Hence
executives must opt only to Circle where he/she can join once transfer order is
issued and should not opt for any Circle where he/she cannot join.
Further,
the OTP Requests of July 2024 are also pending and we at SNEA CHQ are getting queries,
what action is to be taken by Executives whose OTP requests are pending.
In
this regards, it is to inform that as updated on website, the transfer orders
of certain SDEs/AGMs in Telecom wing are given consideration about which we
have updated details, few days back, but orders are not officially published
and it is decided that orders will be published by end of March or in First
week of April 2025.
Some
Executives have submitted OTP requests under fear of long stay Transfers and as
now it has been decided for not issuing any long stay transfers and hence some
of the executives want to withdraw such OTP requests.
We
have received many such requests for withdrawal of OTP Options submitted in
July 2024 window, and earlier this option was not available once the requests
are received by BSNL CO.
But
this time, as Transfer orders is not published, we have requested for giving an
option for withdrawal of pending requests and same has been agreed now.
The
executives who want to withdraw the option submitted in the July 2024 OTP
window, the same may be done accordingly.
The
executives who want to modify the choice of Circle submitted in OTP window July
2024, then one has to first withdraw the pending OTP options and then apply
fresh for new options as per his/her wish.
For
executives who have applied on July 2024 OTP window and whose request is not
yet given consideration by releasing official order and he/she needs transfer
to any of choice to opted Circle, he/she has to do nothing and his/her
application may be either given consideration in already decided orders or will
be given consideration in March 2025, where all these OTP Requests transfers
will be given consideration.
Further,
in present OTP there is no Edit option for changing the options
submitted and SNEA has taken up this issue with Management and requested for
provision of edit option for Options submitted by individuals.
Accordingly
it has been principally agreed to make changes in ERP and provide edit option
which will be available till closure of window on 31/01/2025. The Edit option
will be made available within 2 to 3 days as certain changes required in ERP.
Though
Edit Option, will be available, Executives have to opt wisely and only to
Circles where he /she can join if transfer order is issued in March 2025 as
this option will be available only during window period i.e. 31/01/2025 and not
thereafter. Once Transfer order is issued, it is difficult to cancel and one
has to take care.
In
addition to Intra Circle Transfer Options for JTOs, this time, the JEs which is non-executive cadre is also
given opportunity to opt under OTP for Intra Circle Transfers and hence request
transfers of JEs will also be in online mode.
All
the Executives who are need of transfers have to take note of all these points
and then decide your Choice Circle/Circles depending on family and personal
requirements and then submit
the OTP requests only after critical analysis and be ready for joining choice
circle as per his/her family requirement and avoid complications once Transfer
order is issued.
