The following burning issues of important nature submitted earlier by SEWA CHQ were taken up for discussion as per details :

Management acceded to file Writ Petition in the Hon’ble High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh, They also has assured that BSNL will not file SLP in the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India to avoid inordinate delay till the next hearing at Hon’ble Chandigarh High Court on the Writ Petition already filed by SEWA with regard to Reservation roster in SDE to AGM, AO to CAO and Own merit concept.

Management has agreed for filling up of the Backlog Vacancies of SC/STs in all cadres .

It is intimated by management that they are not doing any work for implementation of CPSU Cadre Hierarchy. They also assured that SEWA will be called for discussion and views of the Association on this particular issue will be taken into consideration,if anything in progress.
