HAPPY NEWS FOR BSNL RETIREES.....

May 19th, 2015

Finally, there is a happy news for BSNL retirees.

Even though it was delayed too much, beyond all expectations, the Cabinet Note prepared by Estt. Section of DOT in December 2014 has been cleared by the Finance Wing.

Yesterday, our Legal Committee Member, Shri R L Kapoor, was told that Estt Section has received the File back from the office of Member (Finance).

Today morning Com. D Gopalakrishnan, our Vice President spoke to the Director concerned and it was confirmed.

Again, today Com. R C Malhotra (NTR Circle President) and Com. Sisodia (Circle Secretary) met the Director. They were also told that Estt Section is finalizing the Cabinet Note.

It will be sent to the Minister for his signature, through Secretary, Telecom soon. Once the Minister approves the draft Cabinet Note it will be sent to the four nodal Ministries for their opinion. As per the rule, the Nodal ministries should convey their views (positive or negative) within 15 days. Thereafter, the Cabinet note will go to the Cabinet.

This is the procedure. Nobody can change this process.

We are happy that Finance has approved the proposal and the file is now moving...
