LOOKING AFTER ARRANGEMENTS FOR SDE’s: The Pune admin has now issued a letter calling for options for looking after arrangements as SDE’s, form senior most JTO’s, as per circle seniority, for the posting in rural stations like Manchar, Talegaon, Lonavala and Saswad. The reasons stated are shortage of SDE’s in Pune and hence only JTO’s needs to be posted in rural areas, whereas the admin has forgot that these JTO’s have already completed the tenure in rural area. We would like to bring to the notice of admin that there is at least 225 SDE’s working in Pune and equal number of JTO’s. We are aware that such letters are issued with malaise intentions and heavy corruption taking place to dilute the Transfer policy. In any way such misdeeds will not be accepted and allowed to happen. Only to protect the interest of certain segment of people the things are twisted in a wrongful manner. If such decisions are imposed upon us will be given a fitting reply. SNEA (I), Pune, will only accept that the transfers of SDE’s from rural to urban will take place only by transferring the longest stay SDE from urban to rural, similarly which was done in case of JTO’s recently transferred from urban to rural. We appeal to all our JTO’s irrespective of association bias, to firmly say no to such practices and the guidelines of transfer policy needs to be followed. We strongly oppose such decisions.

MT RECRUITMENT- A BETRAYAL: The recent MT recruitment notification has massively called for unrest among the DOT recruit engineers as the doors for their career progression through this competition has been completely shut. Even after serving in the department for more than 10 -15 years, they were found ineligible in the basic criteria to apply for the MT’s post, as most of them have already crossed the age limit of 36 years for MT internal and 30 years of age for MT external. Neither can they appear for internal as well as external exam. Also on the educational qualification, the mechanical engineers are not allowed, wherein the DOT found them most suitable during its regime and BSNL does not. We are getting many phone calls from not only across the Pune SSA but from entire nook and corner of Maharashtra and expressing their dissatisfaction and registering their strong protest over this issue. Even for the DGM recruitment the case in not different. This is nothing but a betrayal with the DOT recruits Engineers.
We request all to send the mail to the DS their views immediately so that they can be forwarded to the appropriate forum for the action. Click to write to DS>>>
