As per order issued by

Dr.
Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director HR was overloaded with multiple charges other than
Director HR BSNL viz. Director HR MTNL, ITPC and related activities and these
works of Land Monetization for which every Monday dash board meeting is
arranged in DoT under keen monitoring of Respected MOC and due to these
multiple charges his original role and responsibility of HR issues of BSNL
Executives was last priority for him.
With this order, the workload
of Dr. Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director HR will be reduced to some extent and
he will be able to keep some focused approach on HR issues of BSNL Executives,
which was missing for last many months. Let us hope for resolution of
certain HR issues in this changed scenario.

Felicitation
of Shri Rajeev Soni, CGM EW BSNL CO: A high
level delegation of SNEA felicitated and congratulated Shri. Rajeev Soni CGM
EW BSNL CO on successful completion of prolonged 37 years of services in
DoT and BSNL and his superannuation retirement on 31/03/2026.
Shri.
Rajeev Soni, CGM deserves highest appreciation and such a special Felicitation due
to his lifelong devoted and dedicated services for DoT/ BSNL and its workforce.
BSNL family as whole and specially
we SNEA recognize his great support to BSNL Executives in the most difficult
time of BSNL. He was given responsibility of CGM EW BSNL CO in an extremely
difficult situation of BSNL, and with change in managerial position instead of
improvement, the situation downgraded day by day. But he sustained all pressure
and made all out efforts for the support of Executives in the Electrical wing
in particular and executives and employees of other wings in general.
We have witnessed his special
support to each and every Executive in Electrical wing and it is highly
appreciable that he was knowing majority of Executives in Electrical wing by
name and with their problems & difficulties and this makes him different
and special from all other officers at such level.
His positive, balanced
and till commendable role as Chairman of the Wage Negotiation Committee will be
always remembered and will be surely written in golden letters in history of
BSNL as he has completed the herculean task of signing Wage Negotiation
Agreement.
We have seen his proactive
working for executives of Electrical wing and his passion for Promotions of
JTOs in Electrical wing and passion for Third PRC implementation.
Very shortly, the JTOs in
Electrical wing will get their overdue first SDE promotion after 27 years and
this is possible just because of very positive and firm steps taken by Shri
Rajeev Soni as CGM EW BSNL CO.
Executives in Electrical
wing have seen him as Oasis in dessert and they will surely miss their leader
at top. It was really toughest time for Executives in Electrical wing but he made
it bearable to many executives in Electrical wing and we really mean it.
His contribution in the field off Energy Conservation, Operation Samudra Manthan and in implementing Oorja Portal & automation of pan India energy payment system to
DISCOM during his tenure was superb. BSNL has saved revenue around Rs. 1000 Crore through
savings of energy cost during his tenure periods as CGM EW which is itself an
outstanding & remarkable achievement.
On this great occasion of
superannuation Retirement after highly successful, long and spotless services, SNEA congratulated
and felicitated him for his excellent, dedicated and devoted services in DoT as
well as BSNL and for support extended to BSNL workforce.
On behalf of thousands of
members of SNEA all over India in general and the Electrical wing in
particular, we wish Shri Rajeev Soni, CGM EW BSNL CO, a very Happy, Healthy, Wealthy and Prosperous
long retired life.

Update
on Meeting AUAB CHQ: An
important meeting of the available General Secretaries of AUAB was held on 08/04/2026
to discuss the current scenario regarding the IDA payment, which has been due
since January 2026. After threadbare discussions, it was decided that AUAB will
organise a countrywide demonstration programme on 20/04/2026 demanding the
release of the IDA arrears along with salary of April 2026.
Accordingly,
a memorandum on the subject has been sent to the Secretary DoT, CMD BSNL and Secretary
DPE to convey our strong resentment over the undue delay in releasing the IDA
arrears. The further course of the agitational programme will be finalised in
the next AUAB meeting, likely to be held on the evening of 20/04/2026.
Further,
as per the decision taken in the last AUAB meeting, two separate memoranda on
the issues viz. Posting of Regular CMD BSNL and settlement of the Chennai/Tamil Nadu issues
have also been submitted to the Management/ Government of India to draw their
urgent attention and further course of action on these issues will also be
discussed in the next AUAB meeting.

SNEA pays
rich tributes to Mahatma Jyotirao Phule Ji on his Jayanti. A visionary social
reformer, educationist & champion of equality, Mahatma Phule dedicated his
life to social justice, upliftment of marginalized & empowerment of women.
His timeless teachings continue to inspire generations.

AGM Pers
BSNL CO writes to all Circle Heads for verification and correction of Career
History of executives in SAP/ ESS Portal. Copy<<<>>
Letter
appeals all executives carefully go through their career history details
available in the ESS (Employee Self Service) Portal under Personal Information
Head.
In case
any discrepancy or omission is noticed, the concerned executive should
immediately bring it to the notice of the respective HR/Administrative section
of their circle/ unit along with supporting documents for necessary correction
through e-office or email etc.
Further,
all circles/units Heads were requested to ensure that the HR/Administration
sections promptly examine the representations received from employees and take
necessary corrective action in the SAP/ESS records after due verification of
supporting/service documents.
This
exercise is to be completed with a priority to maintain accurate service
records of all employees and is to be completed positively by 14/04/2026.
This
updated ESS/ERP data will be extracted and used for consideration of pending OTP
Requests from Tenure as well as Non-Tenure stations which are expected to be
considered in this month itself and hence one has to be active and alert in
check correctness of his /her entries in ERP and get it corrected from
BA/Circle administration latest by 14/04/2026.
As per
past year experience, once order is issued or missed the chances of its
modification of fresh orders are less and if in case it is modified/issued with
keen persuasion, it takes months together and all requests are not given
consideration.
Hence all
Executives are requested to take note of this letter and see that all the
entries in ERP/ESS are updated for its correctness so that you are not facing
any hardship as faced by some executives in last year transfers.
DGM SR
BSNL CO issued reminder to Circle Heads for data on accommodation allotted to

information is 10/04/2026. Copy<<<>>
