Website of Satara

Previously Not visiting Satara by any of SNEA leaders etc.

CS Com.M.S.Adasul  replied each and every query to the satisfaction of members.

DS Goa Com.S.M.Phullare also addressed once his parent SSA and appealed everybody to strengthen the organization.

ACS Com.V.B.Kokate also expressed similar thoughts and seconded DS Pune Com.V.M.Wankhede and DS Nashik Com.M.B.Sangale that he was also never invited by District body to come for any meeting at Satara.

Circle Treasurer Com.P.N.Patil reminded members that Satara has not paid circle Quota since  Dercember-2008.

09-Feb 2010CHQ News-Association writes to Shri Sam Pitroda who has been assigned the challenging task of defining  future road map of BSNL to pull it out of the deep crisis that it is in now and urges upon him to address and sort out the key issue of deciding the leadership of the company to bring it out of the present morbid state. Top leadership of the company under any circumstances should not be from within the ITS because of the complete failure of ITS management to act as change leaders, catalysers to introduce innovative processes and systems in the organisation so as to motivate and lead the huge workforce to a clearly defined goal.

Assn. further pleads with Sam Pitroda that unless the key, fundamental and contentious issue of leadership is addressed and resolved, any other recommendation of the committee to transform the organization would be rendered in fructuous because of complete failure of ITS management to govern, lead and deliver.

Assn. brings out clearly lack of vision, mismanagement, rampant corruption, political interference, inefficiency of highest order, stale thinking process, lack of accountability, uninterrupted and huge jumps of non-performers on career front, lack of professionalism, lack of sense of belonging of front line managers towards the organization as the main reasons for crumbling of the organization.

Induction of charismatic stalwarts from outside to head the organisation and decide his team of board of directors shall be the key to the revival of the company.<<letter>>

The losers are further to suffer the ignominy of a recurring two-year lag in their Time Bound Promotions throughout their career also. << Letter>>

28-Jan 2010Editorial January'10 - CHQ END OF THE ROAD- our bread earner enters internecine Red zone.

( Credibility and reputation of our beloved Company nosedives, hits rock bottom and is at its lowest ever ebb. Worst and unabated political and bureaucratic interference, continuous market drubbing, inefficiency of highest order at all the levels, growing indiscipline, total lack of accountability and leadership, unprecedented indecisiveness, mismanagement, rampant corruption and complete lack of transparency plague the Company.) 

We are in the RED ZONE. Our beloved Company, our sole bread earner, is expected to post staggering loss this fiscal year for the first time. The great pangs of pain and agony await us at our doorsteps. It is undoubtedly going to be an agonizing and distressing journey from now onwards. How do we henceforth traverse our future journey full of thorns is something that has no doctored prescription. In the highly crowded and competitive market how do we go about?

The journey is in no way going to be different from the way a patient suffering from terminal illness getting intermittent heavy doses of powerful pain killers which relieves the pain temporarily. Have we now reconciled to get doses of pain killers from time to time or even now we have some strength left to look forward towards undergoing rarest of rare surgery that takes us out from terminal illness from which people rarely come out. People with extraordinary determination and rare toughness of mind do survive even from terminal illness. Are we that stuff? Only future will tell. So far, we have not demonstrated anything of that kind. The tragedy is that we became the victims of terminal disease even though the disease markedly showed its signs as early as five years before. We ignored and neglected the early and clear symptoms of terminal disease invading and crippling us. Probably we allowed it to paralyze us.  

As GS of this Association, I have no hesitation in acknowledging my complete personal failure in not being able to lead successfully in averting this grave and deadly situation and live up to the trust, confidence and expectations reposed by you in us. Leadership receives accolades as well as brickbats. And today, I take your brickbats for the present virtually irretrievable debacle in the spirit in which it has to taken. For the first time bewilderment and despondency have overtaken us, and we really do not know what to do, where to go, how to go. Was it our failure to lead you in the right direction with the right strategy or the failure to get committed support from the grass root to implement our strategy is something debatable and we leave it to you to analyze and judge for you are in the best position to judge.

How do we fulfill our responsibility towards our family, particularly the younger generation within us, who have a long way to go in the company, our Country (because BSNL is being seen as an institution in which the hopes of millions of our Countrymen to get reasonably good service at affordable prices are enbedded) shall be multi million dollar question because getting monthly pay packets shall be a trying, tiring and an arduous task for us, let alone getting our cadre upliftment which shall be nightmares. Nevertheless, all said and done, despite our big failure in not being able to prevent onset of present grave crisis, we shall resolutely go ahead and leave no stone unturned during the brief period we have at hand (because this my concluding term) to see whether we can succeed in staging what would undoubtedly be a remarkably miraculous come back.  

28-Jan 2010No Roaming Tariff between BSNL MH & MTNL Mumbai: BSNL corporate office issued historic guidelines to boost the interests of both BSNL MH and MTNL Mumbai as according to this all the BSNL MH mobile customers will be charged local tariff while roaming in Mumbai and all the MTNL Mumbai mobile customers will be charged local tariff while roaming in entire Maharashtra. SNEA(I) Welcomes such proposals which has potential of increasing the market share of both BSNL and MTNL. This was one of our oldest demand/issue from SNEA(I) MH and specially from Districts of Mumbai,Kalyan & Raigad and was raised in almost all CWCs and All India conferences held during last 5 years.  - SNEAMH

On the position of another PSU, MTNL (that offers services only in two metros of Delhi and Mumbai)  was comparatively better and the issues concerning it be considered in the normal course, separately, it added.

11-Jan 2010The Joint Forum of BSNL Unions of Non-executives / Associations of Executives will meet on 11^th January to discuss about the latest developments in BSNL including the delay in tender of 93 million GSM lines, Agitational programmes against Govt. proposal for 10% IPO, Absorption of ITS officers etc.

11-Jan 2010 CHQ News-SDE to Adhoc STS Promotion: The APAR for 2008-09 from most of the Circles except GUJ, CHTD & KRL not reached so far. Even if the stay at J&K is vacated the, DPC cannot be held without the CR for 2008-09. So, CSs should ensure the receipt of APAR at BSNL CO.

08-Jan 2010CHQ News 07-01-2010-Meeting with Secretary, DoT: GS along with AGSs met Sri. P. J. Thomas, Secretary, DoT and discussed the following issues.

a) Issues related to the viability of BSNL: At the very outset Secy/DOT emphatically mentioned that employees and the executives of BSNL have a very huge responsibility in terms of giving a new facelift to the entire Organization through sustained and determined efforts. Secy/DOT was of the clear view that BSNL despite having a clear strategic advantage in two potential areas of business growth in 3G and broadband sectors has not been able to capitalize on this distinct advantage. Determined efforts and appropriate strategy and plan of action is immediately needed to tap huge market in these twin potential areas of business. Associations and Unions have to play a frontal and leading role in forcing the Management to focus strategies in these critical areas of telecom segment where huge potential still remains unexploited. 

b) Continuing delay in finalization of tenders and completion of key projects: Secretary expressed deep and serious concern over the inordinate delay in finalizing tenders and execution of projects critical to the growth of the Organization. Finalization of tenders as quickly as possible and completion of important projects in a time bound manner are priority areas in deciding the growth of the Organization. In this context, he quoted the example of Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) where a tender worth Rs 7000 crores was finalized in a record time of 22 days in sharp contrast to BSNL where finalization of tenders is taking years together. Secy opined that BSNL Managers and concerned officers in BSNL should visit DMRC and learn the entire process of deciding and implementing key projects as expeditiously as possible. In nutshell, Secy/DOT clearly emphasized an urgent need of deciding and implementing projects in time, drastically improving the existing work culture and quality of service, including critical customer interface. 

c) 93 million GSM tender: CVC has raised certain issues which had to be resolved by BSNL Management. In fact, Secy/DOT expressed his great disappointment at the huge quantum of delay in finalizing this crucial tender like other tenders. However, he assured that DOT would try its best to ensure that the stalemated tender takes off as expeditiously and felt that Associations and Unions also should actively and constructively participate and closely monitor to ensure in future that important projects are finalized as per the drawn schedule and that such damaging delays do not take place. We informed Secretary that in 2007 also BSNL faced similar threatening situation and that resulted in huge decline of its Market share because of complete non availability of GSM equipment and in case present tender is also allowed to go the way tender in 2007 was dealt with, BSNL will be completely out of telecom business very shortly and shall be unable to retrieve its lost ground.  In fact, this is the only challenging opportunity for BSNL to come out of the huge mess that it is in now, we informed Secy/DOT.  

d) Penetration of Broadband in rural areas: Secretary suggested that BSNL come up with a comprehensive plan of action to penetrate into huge rural broad band market and asked us also to work out appropriate strategy and suggest vital inputs that could boost BSNLs penetration in this vital area of telecom growth. On our part, we assured Secy/DOT that we shall very shortly submit important inputs and data to apprise him of the ground realities and also the road map to be followed in the important segment.  

e) Meeting with Hon. PM: Secy/DOT very briefly mentioned that a steering committee is expected to be constituted very shortly by Finance Ministry to go and address important issues to tide over the present difficult situation that BSNL is in now. However, Secy felt that short term benefits like waiving off of license fees on landline segment and other subsidies that BSNL is looking forward to may not really help BSNL in the long run. What is really going to be decisive is ensuring its continued exponential growth in areas of rapidly expanding telecom business through quick finalization and timely execution of important projects and improving quality of service and customer interface.   

f) Challenge of fully capitalizing on upcoming IPL tournament: Secy/DOT mentioned that there is a very big and challenging opportunity for BSNL to exploit its business in 3G segment in the upcoming potential IPL tournament since it has a very decisive and clear cut edge over other operators in terms of possessing 3G spectrum. It remains to be seen whether BSNL utilizes and exploits this huge opportunity to spurt its growth in 3G segment.

G) Absorption of ITS: Secy/DOT informed that fresh Cabinet note on this important issue is under active consideration and is likely to be sent to the Union Cabinet very shortly. He further mentioned that he was fully conscious of deciding this important issue as quickly as possible.
