There is good news for the senior officials whose demand to grant them stepping up of pay  to that of their juniors in the junior scale, due to point to point fixation in the pay revision, was rejected by the management.

This was agreed to at the time of the pay revision itself. A committee consisting the staff side and official side  recommended stepping up of pay. This was approved by the Management Committee and BSNL Board, but was rejected by the DOT, since they have to pay pension on that.

Some officials in Kerala has gone to the CAT and a judgement was got to step up pay. BSNL went on appeal to High Court which was rejected. The CHQ BSNLEU put a strong demand to implement the court judgement, but instead management went on SLP to Supreme Court. Now the Supreme Court has dismissed the SLPin case Nos.  SLP NO. CC 4124 of 2012                 CC 4142 of 2012                 CC 4173 of 2012. After many years, the management has lost its case. It has  now to implement the agreement it made with the union earlier of stepping up of the pay of the senior to the junior in the junior scale who got more than the senior in the wage revision.

The BSNL management should immediately implement the court judgement without any delay. The seniors will get justice now.
