SNEA MH writes
GM HR Admn Mumbai conveying Issues
related to recent order issued by Electrical wing Mumbai under Looking After Arrangements
for SDE Electrical and for taking corrective action as per the BSNL CO
guidelines on the subject. Letter <<<>>>
29 OCT 20:
Issues related to DGM LA
and submission of options: SNEA MH is in
receipt of different queries from executives asking for criteria to be followed
in issuing Looking after arrangement in DGM Cadre as there is confusion among
who will be shifted out of SSA, compulsions on accepting refusal, posting will
be done as per seniority or as per stay in SSA in case of more number of
officers hare eligible for DGM LA in same SSA etc.
In this regards, it is to inform
that there are already existing guidelines to deal with such issues and same
are being followed in MH Circle and will be taken care. But to clear the
doubts, SNEA MH leaders have discussed the issues
related to proposed DGM LA arrangements with Shri. Aman Jaiswal, GM
HR Admn Mumbai on 28/10/2020 and
the details of discussions are as follows.
·
Compulsions for accepting LA
arrangements: In letter for calling options for
DGM LA, one line is specifically
and wrongly added that “no refusals will be accepted”. We have brought
to his notice that there cannot be compulsion for accepting LA arrangements as
there are existing BSNL CO guidelines specifically addressed to CGMT MH Circle
that executives need not to be forced to join higher responsibility under look
After Arrangements and copy of order is handed over to him. After going through
it GM HR Admn Mumbai has agreed that there cannot be compulsion on executives
in accepting Looking After arrangements and he has assured that these orders
will be respected and there will not be compulsions on the members to accept
orders for accepting higher responsibility under LA arrangement. Order <<<>>>
·
Criteria for Retention in SSA if
more Executives are eligible for higher responsibilities in same SSA: WE have narrated that Staff Section has published list of stay
particular and nothing is mentioned on retention of transfer of executives out
of SSA in case more officers are eligible in some SSA and there is shortage in
other SSA. GM HR Admn Mumbai asked our views what should be criteria for same.
We have shared that there are already existing guidelines for retention of
senior as per seniority in DE Seniority list within SSA and junior will be
shifted out. We have handed over him copy of the letter issued by BSNL CO and
followed by MH Circle in all LA arrangements but doubts are created as stay particulars
are published with calling options. GM HR Admn Mumbai has gone through letter
and has accepted that this is correct criteria and as orders are already in
existence same will be followed as done in past. Order
<<<>>>
·
Posting where it is as it is basis: We have requested GM HR Admn for consideration for posting where it is
as it is basis as this temporary arrangements and in case of new incumbent
joins, then junior officer is reverted. In case of transfers out of SSA, same
executive is again requesting for posting at home SSA in reverted cadre. GM HR
Admn Mumbai informed that the efforts will be for posting on where it is as it
basis to avoid cost of transfers and in case of meeting extreme shortage only
the officers will be transferred first as per his option and in case no options
are available then as per the seniority of the Officer as per circle seniority.
In case, seniors submits his/her refusal after issuing LA orders or before
issuing orders, then next senior will be given consideration for DGM LA. The
options for SSAs having vacant post will be normally considered at company
cost.
·
Extension of orders of DGM LA issued
earlier: GM HR Admn Mumbai informed that his office has already processed
proposal in file for issuing extension of earlier DGM Order and orders will be
issued after approval of CGMT MH.
·
Vacancy of DGMs in Mobile wing and
Circle Office Mumbai: We have discussed
about filling of vacant post of DGMs in Mobile wing and Circle Office Mumbai.
GM HR Admn Mumbai informed that till the norms have not been published by BSNL
CO for justifying posts of executives in Mobile wing and Circle Office Mumbai
and hence no vacancies are shown and also no option has been called so far. The
posting of DGMs in both the units will be decided later.
·
Meeting Shortage of SDEs/DEs created
due to DGM LA: We have brought to his notice that there is already
shortage of DEs in Maharashtra Circle and after DGM LA, there will be post of
DEs will also be filled under Looking after arrangements from SDE to DE and
vacancies created in SDE cadre will be filled in under JTO to SDE LA for which
already authorization is given to SSA/BA Heads to fill SDE/DE post locally. He
further added that as per the norms available and total number of executives
available in MH Circle all post can be filled in from existing executives under
look after arrangements.
29 OCT 20:
AD Staff A
Mumbai issued orders for Looking After Arrangements from DE/AGM to DGM post to
cover up back dated period. Letter <<<>>>
·
This is special order to cover up
the period in which certain DEs/AGMs have worked as DGM LA, but extension order
was not issued by Staff Section.
·
These Looking After arrangements
were required to be issued in Month of March 2020, but same are not issued and
now covering orders are issued in which Period of officiating is mentioned
against each officer depending upon his earlier order for DGM LA and completion
of 179 days thereafter and giving /showing gap/break of three days in
continuation as DGM LA.
·
Some additional DE/AGMs are orders
to look after as AGM covering some of vacant post of DGMs for which options
have been called and last date of submission of option is 31/10/2020.
·
Thus 16 post out if total 51 posts

and options needs to be submitted for remaining 35 DGM posts.
·
The period of some of Officers in
small SSAs is shown ending as 30/10/2020 because the BA consolidation is declared
implemented w.e.f 01/10/2020 and as per this order no
post of DGMs exists in these SSAs as Area Operation Head will be DE/AGM level

Mumbai issued orders for withdrawal of order issued by his office for
reimbursement of fixed line services/FTTH services from other private Operators
in residential service connections of BSNL Officers. Letter <<<>>>
·
This order dated 16/11/2018 which is
withdrawn today, was biased and illegal order forcefully issued by then CGMT MH
Circle due to his dispute with officers in MTNL Mumbai on certain issues.
·
The dispute raised continued to such
level that then CGMT MH dared to disconnect all working Connections in Circle
Office, Mumbai and residence of certain selected officers and opted for
connections of Airtel which was unethical, illegal and unwanted for BSNL which
is one of the reputed PSUs.
·
This issue was strongly opposed only
by SNEA MH putting all facts and figures on papers to such extremely biased,
egoistic and personalized actions of then CGMT MH. Such strong oppose only by
SNEA MH was one of reason that then CGMT MH become extremely biased with SNEA
and taken vindictive actions against CS SNEA MH and DS SNEA Mumbai by misusing
office position.
·
When SNEA MH opposed this orders by
tooth and nail, leaders of some of other associations and unions either kept
mum or directly/indirectly joined hands with then CGMT MH Circle thereby giving
him free hand for all such illegal activities against interest of BSNL and MTNL
and mainly diverting customer base from PSUs to private companies.
·
Some of Unions leaders have
indirectly supported this illegal action by then CGMT MH by giving letters that
MTNL services are very poor and hence allow us for opting for taking
connections from private operators and naturally such letters were given on
demand by management to justify the entry of Airtel in HQ of BSNL Maharashtra
Circle and in residence of selected Officers. It was also unfortunate that some
of SNEA Ex leaders which can be counted on figure tips also supported this move
of CGMT MH for reasons best known to them.
·
Its fact that though many of
executives in Circle Office Mumbai did not oppose the decision directly, but
majority of executives played important role in stopping Airtel connections by
not using AirTel Connections as no calls were made by
majority of executives have not made calls from Airtel Number and give
conclusive shape to restore MTNL connections in BSNL Office.
·
SNEA MH has raised this issue with
then CGMT MH, GM Vigilance Mumbai, Director CFA BSNL, Director HR BSNL, CMD
BSNL, ED MTNL and Hon. Minister of State Communication, Govt of India and
continuously pursued it at all levels. With such continuous persuasion, finally
in December 2019, it was ordered to cancel the Airtel connections provided in
Circle Office Mumbai and to restore MTNL Connections in Circle Office Mumbai.
·
Accordingly, new MTNL connections
are provided to certain officers and being provided to remaining officers in
Circle Office Mumbai as work is delayed due to COVID 19 and all the office
landline connections of MTNL in Circle Office Mumbai will be active within
fortnight.
·
Though Office connections were
restored from Airtel to MTNL in Dec 2019, till today, the Airtel connections
which were working in the residence of some of selected officers were continued
and bills were being reimbursed by BSNL and now orders have been issued for
stopping reimbursement of Telephone bills by BSNL against all such connections
from private Operators and mainly Airtel as only Airtel has managed certain
officers in BSNL and no other operator has provided any connections in or to
BSNL Officers.
·
With all these activities, the stand
of SNEA MH for not closing MTNL connections and not to opt for Airtel
Connections in BSNL office has been fully established and proved over the
period. It is established that no one can misuse authority for personal ego or
benefits and everybody is bound by certain ethical, legal and official orders
and only time matters.
·
This is good move towards
strengthening BSNL/MTNL and all PSUs and we all should proactively support such
initiatives in larger interest of BSNL and should not come under blackmailing
practice even by highest Officer in Maharashtra Circle in support of certain
Officers in BSNL Corporate Office.
·
The AirTel
connections in BSNL office and residence of some selected officers was “Black
spot “ on working of PSUs like BSNL and with this order it will be cleaned to
certain extent and hopefully in future no such orders are issued by BSNL which
will be against the interest of BSNL and MTNL or any PSU.

SSA wise
Executive Strength published on Internal Whats app
Group of BSNL Officers i.e. SSA/BA Heads. Copy <<<>>>
·
Earlier, the SSA wise Executive Strength of executives was
calculated and published on MH Intranet on monthly basis and it was highly
appreciated by all. But same practice has been stopped since last two years and
now such internal note is issued calling for confirmation from SSA/BA Heads.
·
For transparent HR working, it is required that such data is
officially published for update information of all concerned Executives so that
one can understand, but may be due to the fact that till norms for posting of
executives under Area Operation Head i.e. executives for actual execution of
works in field units is not finalized by BSNL Corporate Office and hence such
data with note has been published internally on what’s app group and not on MH
Intranet as done earlier.
·
It’s good that apart from LL, BB, Mobile connections, this
time weightage seems to be given for Geographical area, Number of SDCAs, Total
OFC Route Kms, Revenue of SSA, BTS
and lease Circuits and exact weightage given needs to be confirmed for each
factor.
·
As per BSNL CO letters dated 14 & 17 Jan 20 Weightage
given for LL is 1.0, for LL+BB is 1.5 and for LC it is 3.0
·
As per this note all BA Heads are requested to assign
workload as per this sanctioned strength and send proposal for perusal of CGMT
MH.
·
All DS are requested to discuss the issues with SSA/BA Heads
about the requirement of executives in their SSA/BAs before sending such
proposal from SSA/BA Head as asked by GM HR Admn Mumbai.

This issue was discussed by SNEA MH with CGMT MH and GM Fin
Mumbai on 21/10/2020 and it’s nice to see that GM Fin Mumbai has immediately acted
on it and issued orders.
·
Temporary advances are to be used strictly for the purpose
allowed as per BSNL Guidelines.
·
If vendors are not performing and hence expenditure is to be
incurred through Temporary advances in that case POs of such vendors are to be
cancelled /short closed before incurring expenditure through temporary
Advances.
·
Vendors should not claims any bills, during period when
works are carried out through payments by Temporary advance/s.
·
Temporary advance sanctioning authority has to ensure
compliance of these guidelines.
·
Now, from November 2020 onwards, Temporary advances to be
applied in first week of every month.
·
IFAs have to recommend Temporary Advances should scrutinize
application for absolute essential cases and in admissible /permissible heads,
otherwise the same may be returned /rejected.
·
The use of amount in Temporary Advances for purpose for
which it is sanctioned and use for other purpose should be discouraged by
higher authorities.
·
Outstanding Temporary Advances may be invariably adjusted
within one month or amount recovered along with penal interest from holder,
which are earlier guidelines reproduced now.
·
Cash payment through Temporary advances should be avoided
for payment of Fuel, Electricity charges.
·
Let us hope that with these revised guidelines all the
executives in need of temporary advances for day to day fixed office works

AD Staff
Mumbai issued orders for cancellation of deputation order of JTO Mobile Goa to
Mobile Kolhapur which was issued without consent of Circle Office. Letter <<<>>>
·
None of order either deputation order or this order issued
by Circle office is published on intranet, but it is widely circulating on What’s app.
·
The said JTO earlier working in Mobile Kolhapur was
transferred to Goa under long stay and first posted to Goa SSA. But special
request was sent by DGM NSS Pune for transferring this executive from Goa SSA
to Goa Mobile as special case and Circle Office issued orders for his transfer
to Goa Mobile.
·
After joining to Goa Mobile officer was working in Goa
Mobile and later DGM NSS Pune issued deputation order of said JTO and he was
actually given additional charge of Kolhapur Mobile to look after tenancy
issues of rented BTS in Kolhapur, Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg SSAs in separate
Vehicle allotted for this work.
·
Actually, said officer was assigned this work in addition to
his works at Goa Mobile without any extra remuneration clearing facts where
there is need of separate JTO for such tenancy related works.
·
It is quite possible that these works related to report on
rented BTS can be taken care by JTOs/SDE posted for Mobile Mtce
in SSAs , but for justifying works of extra officers posted in mobile such type
of routine works are kept with separate Mobile team in SSA/BAs.
·
Till now, many such orders of deputation have been issued by
office of PGM Mobile Pune especially for the executives transferred from
Pune/Kolhapur Mobile and officers were shown working in transferred SSA and
were practically working in the Pune/Kolhapur Mobile.
·
Mobile wing is known for such extra personal relations with
senior officers from Mobile wing with PGM Mobile Pune and PGM CM Mumbai.
·
Many such transfer/retention , pick and choose transfer
orders are issued specially by Mobile wing either directly or by processing
files directly CGMT MH and GM HR Admn Mumbai is compelled to issue such orders.
·
While issuing such orders, it is processed in file that
transfer of these officers in Mobile wing is done on Technical requirement, but
later on except in few cases, it is established that the said transfer order
was for total technical requirement of BSNL, but it was requirement of said
individual officer, who managed his/her transfer to choice place by using good
relations with PGM/GM Mobile Pune/ Nagpur and PGM CM Mumbai and finally orders
were issued by GM HR Admn Mumbai.
·
But in this case, by understanding fact that GM HR Admn
Mumbai will not issue orders as expected before completion of tenure at Goa,
the order itself was issued by DGM NSS Pune without its copy to GM HR Admn
Mumbai or CGMT MH Circle underlining the malice in issuing such special order.
·
Now, also this order will have been continued in the same
manner and Tenure of Goa SSA would have been completed while working at
Kolhapur SSA, but Goa SSA wrote letter to Circle Office asking clarification
about the salary of said JTO from Goa SSA while he was deputed for period of
more than ten months to Kolhapur Mobile.
·
Accordingly, matter has been taken note by GM HR Admn Mumbai
for this illegal and out of turn deputation order issued by DGM NSS Pune with
approval of PGM Mobile Pune and issued orders for cancellation of Deputation
order underlining the fact that PGM Mobile and SSA/BA Heads are not empowered
to issue any such transfer or even deputation orders of JTOs for inter SSA
transfers.
·
In similar manner, some transfer/deputation orders are also
issued by GMT Solapur, PGMT Pune, GMT Raigad, CE Elect Mumbai and hopefully GM
HR Admn Mumbai will take care of all such pick and choose orders issued by
concerned SSA/BA/Vertical Heads without approval of CGMT MH Circle.
·
To avoid all such issues and unrest among other comrades,
SNEA MH has always promoted for merger of Mobile unit in SSA/BA except Pune
Nodal Centre, and order were issued, but due to pressure for justifying posts
of PGM/GM/DGMs in Pune /Nagpur Mobile such orders were reverted back and about
147 executives are still working in different SSAs, who are not reporting to
SSA /BA Heads but are reporting to PGM/GM/DGM Mobile at Pune /Nagpur.
·
In guidelines for consolidation of BAs, the entire work of
Mobile Mtce is shown under BA Heads, but till efforts
are going on for separate working of Mobile wing justifying few post of senior
officers in Pune and Nagpur.
·
Let us hope that such out of turn activities are stopped
once for all by giving total control of Mobile Mtce
works under SSA/BA Heads and only Nodal Centre should be allowed to continue as
separate unit as it requires special technical expertise and it is working for
all Circles in West Zone.

23 OCT 20: Meeting
with CGMT MH Circle on different current HR and Development issues: Delegation of
SNEA MH had meeting with Shri. Manoj Kumar Mishra, CGMT MH
Circle on 21/10/2020
in his chamber and we have discussed different current HR and Development
issues
At the outset we conveyed thanks to CGMT MH
for his initiatives for Consideration of JTO Rule 8/Rule 9 request of JTOs,
Consideration of Request of executives from tenure stations, initiating process
for confirmation process for JTOs/JAOs, consideration of TBPs cases and other
issues in the interest of executives in BSNL and giving relief to all. Other
details of discussions is as follows.
1. Frequent Failure of WTR OFC Routes and hardship in field
units: We have brought to the notice of CGMT MH about frequent
failure of major OFC routes by WTR and mainly issue of not having reliable
media between Mumbai-Pune, Pune–Satara-Kolhapur, Sangli-Solapur, Goa-Mumbai,
Aurangabad-Nagpur, Nanded-Parbhani and Solapur Pune. WE added that there is
much increase in use of Data with addition of more and more number of FTTH
Connections and such failures is directing impacting the customer base of BSNL.
We have added that the issue of Mumbai-Pune OFC route has become critical due
to heavy traffic and its failure affects entire Maharashtra Circle from Goa to
Bhandara SSA. CGMT MH informed that this is to be taken care by WTR and he has
already discussed this issue with CGM WTR and efforts are being taken at WTR to
have media stability on these routes. We have brought to notice of CGMT MH that
attending fault is OK, but there is need of alternate OFC either on different
routes viz. for Pune –Mumbai either via Khopoli
–Kalyan –Thane or via Alephata,-Murbad-Kalyan
–Thane or by hiring fiber from other private operators. We also added that BSNL
CO has asked for requirement of fibre on barter
system from Vodafone which has availability of fibre
on these routes including Mumbai-Pune Route. Only issue is availability of fibre within Pune City, where BSNL fibre
can be used. WE also requested to ascertain laying of BDSNL higher size OFC on
Mumbai-Pune Route as it will be required in days to come to meet high traffic
demand in days to come. CGMT MH assured to look into all such issues and
assured for stable OFC Media all Over Maharashtra by taking up issues at all
levels.
2. Clearing payments of Temporary Advances pending in ERP for
long time: We have drawn attention
of CGMT MH on delay in sanction of Temporary advances even though same are duly
recommended by SSA/BA. We have conveyed thanks to CGMT MH for his sincere and
special efforts for releasing Temporary advances to all VRS opted executives
and we requested similar action for releasing all pending Temporary advances.
We also informed that Temporary advances are pending for months together and
executives in the field units are compelled to pay from pockets and many of
executives have paid lakhs of rupees from pocket and are waiting for sanction
of advances against the work which are already done. CGMT MH informed that
there is shortage of funds and sufficient funds are not allotted by BSNL
Corporate office and he is managing from certain amount being released by BSNL
CO. We requested that the application/requests for Temporary Advances even with
due recommendations of SSA/BA Heads are pending in ERP for months together and
all of sudden all such requests are cancelled /closed stating reasons like
Account Closure, the request of one year cannot be carried forward and so on.
Finally, the victims are Officers working in field units. We specially
requested for putting written request to BSNL CO for special allotment of funds
for clearing all pending Temporary Advances as one time action. CGMT MH
immediately discussed it with GM Fin Mumbai and directed for accessing the
total data of Pending Temporary Advances and put up letter to BSNL CO demanding
funds for clearing all pending Temporary advances as one time measure.
3. Regularization of Procedure for grant of Temporary advances:
We have drawn attention of CGMT MH on present procedure of
dual sanction of Temporary advances first by applying in ERP with sanction of
SSA/BA Head and secondly by What’s app message to GM Fin or CGMT MH and in
these cases some of SSA/BA Heads are reluctant even taking important request
for grant of Temporary Advances and some of SSA/BA Heads are able to get all
Temporary advance sanctioned. Also, there should be scrutiny at the level of
SSA/BA Heads in sanctioning of Temporary advances in ERP and once it is
approved it should be released by CSC Mumbai as per the availability /allotment
of funds by BSNL CO. We also drawn attention that some of SSAs having active
and alert SSA/BA Heads are getting more funds and some of SSAs not having
active/alter SSA Heads are getting less amount of Temporary advance and there
should be some specific procedure for sanction of Temporary advances. CGMT MH
agreed our concern and conveyed GM Fin Mumbai to issue orders for streamlined
procedure for allotment of Temporary advances. He also directed that there
should be some celling on grant of Temporary advances per SDE/JTO in particular
month and minimum Temporary Advance needs to be allotted to all officers in
Field units. GM Fin informed that now allotment of impress has been stopped and
allotment of such fixed amount is not possible and Temporary advances are granted only
for specific works. We conveyed that we are aware about it and our request is
for grant of temporary Advances against specific works as requested by
concerned Officer and recommended by SSA/BA Heads. We added that once Temporary
Advance is recommended by SSA/BA Head, it should be allotted by Circle Office
and it should not be closed at any time for any reason except release of
Temporary Advances. We also requested to grant Temporary advances on specific
norms so that it is allotted as per requirement recommended by SSA/BA Heads
with proper scrutiny against works and there is should not be need of special
recommendations on What’s app by SSA/BA Heads once it is recommended in ERP. If
there is need of scrutiny and curtailment then it should be done at the level
of SSA? BA and Vertical heads and once recommended in ERP should be approved.
After elaborate discussions on this issue, finally CGMT MH informed that his
office will formulate and issue fresh guidelines for submission of request
Temporary advance, its scrutiny at level of SSA/BA Head, maximum and minimum
amount which can be sanctioned for one particular SDE/JTO or Division depending
on norms like working lines or average expenditure required for such special
works in field units, fixing time for submission of application in first week
of every month and allotment of funds against Temporary advances in second or
third week of that month and closure of all such request of Temporary advances
for which funds are not allotted by end of that month. CGMT MH specifically
informed that no request of Temporary advance should be kept pending at end of
month i.e. either Temporary Advance will be sanctioned or rejected and the
request in ERP will be closed. In conclusion, CGMT MH directed GM Fin Mumbai to
discuss the issues with other vertical heads and formulate uniform guidelines
streamlining procedure for allotment of Temporary advances by all the officers
in the field units as per requirement.
4. Release of pending payment of Contract Workers: We have elaborated the hardship faced by the contract
workers due to nonpayment of their dues by BSNL and concerned contractors for
months together. WE added that during this pandemic situation also, these
contract workers are providing services with sincerity and devotion even though
their dues are not paid for months together. This has become serious issue in
the field and the officers working in the field units are facing its heat.
Though with his intervention some funds are released but till major amount is
pending and needs immediate action for releasing payments of all contract
workers. CGMT MH informed that he is aware about the difficulties as being
pursued by field units. Now no contract workers are to be engaged by any
SSA/Unit and all works are to be done on job basis. For pending payments, he
informed that the details of pending payment of contract workers has been
consolidated and sent to BSNL CO asking for allotment of funds. He added that
it’s expected that certain funds will be released in phase manner but all the
dues of contract works will be cleared within period 2-3 months.
5. Actual and practical implementation of Mergers of SSAs with
BA: We requested CGMT MH that though there are guidelines for
effective working of BAs and Area Operations w.e.f.
01/10/2020, practically nothing is implemented in field units. There are issues
in day to day operations and maintenance and there is confusion among different
Officers and many of the administrative works are till carried out at SSAs.
CGMT MH informed that there is no change in BA Structure in Maharashtra Circle
and all 14 BAs continue with the SSAs earlier merged with BAs. Hence concerned SSA/BA
has to take action for effective merger of SSAs with BAs and it is being taken
care by concerned BA Heads and quoted example of Dhule SSA where work has
started. CGMT MH was optimistic that the transformation of SSAs in into Area
Operation Offices will be done smoothly and if required and requested by BA
Heads, necessary support will be extended by Circle Office.
6. Rearrangements of SSA/BA Heads as per the norms: We have drawn attention of CGMT MH on need of rearrangement
of SSA/BA Heads after consolidation of BAs and how some of SSAs are headed by
PGM level Officer and how post of BA Head is Nanded vacant. CGMT MH informed
that it is only issues with Dhule and Sangli SSA and necessary orders for
rearrangement of these SSAs along with changes in some of BA Heads on are
expected within week’s period. He added that all post of BA Heads including
Nanded will be field up by GM/PGM level Officers and all the post of DGM/DE
Head of Area Operation Offices i.e. SSAs will be filled under look after
arrangements by calling willingness from eligible DEs.
7. Looking After arrangement in DGM/AGM/CAO/SDE/AO Cadres: We have informed CGMT MH that there are many post from SDEs
to DEs are vacant in all wings and all SSAs and different criteria is applied
for look After Arrangements. There is uncertainty among officers about orders
and issuing revised orders for continuation of Looking after Arrangements. CGMT
MH informed that the proposal for DGM Locking After Arrangements in Telecom
wing has been approved by him today and similar action will be taken to fill up
vacant post of AGMs/CAOs/EES and SDEs/AOs by calling willingness among eligible
Officers.
8. Consideration of Rule 8/ Rule 9 Request of JAOs: We requested CGMT MH to give consideration to the 20-25
pending request of JAOs under Rule 8 and Rule 9 transfers to different Circle
at par with JTOs. We conveyed the difficulties faced by these JAOs due certain
critical family issues who are eagerly waiting for transfer to their Home
Circle/SSA/ There is good number of JAOs available in Maharashtra Circle as
compared to other Circles also number of requests are also less in number. WE
also informed that entire work preliminary work for considering these requests
has been completed at Staff section and his instructions to proceed further
will give justice to all these comrades waiting for quiet long time. CGMT MH
informed that he is aware about issue and assured that all Rule 8 and Rule 9
transfers of JAOs will be given consideration shortly.
9. Consideration of Request Transfers from Non Tenure SSAs: We have elaborated the difficulties and hardship faced by
executives working at Non Tenure Stations who are waiting for their transfers
for long time. It has been assured to consider the request transfer but due to
one and another reason it is delayed. WE requested to give consideration to all
request transfers from Non tenure stations. CGMT MH informed that there are
issues in consideration of request transfers due to non-finalization of
Staffing Norms and after repeated assurances, same is not yet released by BSNL.
He added that he has started process for consideration of request transfers and
in first phase request transfers to Circle Office Mumbai will be given
consideration. Thereafter, request transfer from and to other SSAs having shortage,
one to one /point to point request transfers will be given consideration. We
requested to give early consideration of all eligible transfers and CGMT MH
assured for it.
10.
Unrest among executives
on Transfers being issued on pick and choose basis: We have narrated that in recent past the new and pick and
choose method seems to be adopted for consideration of request transfers that
to be only for the individuals who are able to meet certain Officers in Circle
office Mumbai and explain their difficulties in person. It is not possible for
all individuals to visit Circle office and explain their issues and
difficulties and hence it is required on part of management instead of
considering such individual cases, all request needs to be given consideration.
We stressed that if not possible all, at least request of similar type i.e. if
it medical case, spouse working, or from SSAs having excess to shortage
executives should be given consideration in one stroke. CGMT MH agreed to
concern expressed by us and assured to give consideration to all other such
request shortly.
11.
Casual approach in
counting of long stay of executives issuing orders with wrong stay: We have narrated the recent incidence of issuing transfer
orders by wrong counting of stay and transferring officer with less stay by
keeping aside name of officer who is in actual long stay. This created hardship
to individual and CGMT MH assured to look into it and take corrective action
and to issue directions for checking and confirmation of stay before issuing
transfer orders.
12.
Relieving of Executives
under transfer from Tenure stations: We have elaborated the difficulties and hardship faced by the
executives working at tenure stations even after 8-10 months of completion of
Tenure. These Executives have understood the situation on COVID Lockdown period
and continued with full devotion. Now orders are issued, but there is total
reluctance in part of concerned SSA/BA Heads in relieving of these executives.
We categorically mentioned the issues in Sindhudurg SSA and posting of more and
more officers in Sindhudurg SSA as about 40 Executives are posted for about
17000 working lines and comparatively there is more shortage or excess workload
to executives in other SSAs. Even after issuing orders and some executives have
joined in tenure SSA, relieving of executives is not being implemented. By
considering their hardship and genuine difficulties we requested for issuing
orders for ERP relieving of these officers and give relief to all these tenure
completed executives and eagerly waiting to get relived to join with their
families. CGMT MH informed that he is aware about the difficulties of these
executives and already action has been taken for relieving of executives from
Tenure SSAs. He added that he has discussed this issue with SSA/BA Head of
Gadchiroli today and he has assured to relieve all the executives under
transfer from Gadchiroli to their choice SSA. CGMT MH further assured that in
similar manner, he will discuss this issue with all SSA/BA Heads for ensuring relieving
of all these officers. We narrated much concern on stand taken by Sindhudurg
SSA for not relieving officers till one to one substitute joined and we have
shared details of work load with each executives and how all can be relived
with local rearrangements. In conclusion CGMT MH informed that he will
personally discuss with all SSA/BA Heads to see that all the tenure completed
executives will be relieved in time bound manner.
13.
Posting of Excess
Executives to Sindhudurg SSA: We have updated CGMT MH
about the fact that wrong information is being passed to Circle Management
about extreme shortage of executives in Sindhudurg SSA and till one to one
substitute is posted to SDE/JTO under transfer from Sindhudurg will be relived.
We have given facts and figures of work load of each and every officer in
Sindhudurg SSA and brought to notice of CGMT MH that additional posting of
executives by Special order for Sindhudurg SSA is unwanted and will create
wrong trend and is unwanted expenditure on transfers in the interest of
service. CGMT assured to look into concern expressed by SNEA and decide
accordingly
14.
Review of posting of
executives to and from Mobile wing: We have informed that in recent guidelines issued by BSNL CO for
posting in Mobile section, no separate Mobile wing is shown and the Mobile wing
executives are shown under BA/SSA Heads. We also added that one side management
says that there are excess Executives in Mobile wing and other side additional
officers are being posted in Mobile wing making it more excess. There is
shortage of executives in SSAs even for Mobile Mtce
works and there is no justification in posting additional officers to only to
Mobile wing. CGMT MH conveyed that there are excess officers in Mobile wing and
action is being taken for rearrangements of executives to justify the works.
The recent posting to Mobile was done on expertise in Nodal works as per
recommendations of PGM CM Mumbai. The detail justification for posting of
Officers n Mobile wing is being done by GM HR Admn Mumbai and accordingly
excess executives at any unit will be rearranged.
15.
One time action for grant
of Tenure Facility for filling vacant post in Parbhani SSA: We informed that management is taking continuous efforts for
posting executives to Parbhani SSA and some of orders are cancelled for one or
other reason and shortage at Parbhani SSA continues. We reminded CGMT MH about
our earlier suggestion/request for consideration of granting one time tenure
facility to the executives who will be opting to Parbhani SSA. We have already
quoted such actions by BSNL Corporate office for filling vacant posts and to
meet acute shortage in particular Circle/SSA. CGMT MH expressed that it is good
idea and directed us to submit proposal in detail He also added that similar
steps were taken by him earlier in WTP and in such cases in transfer and
posting order of these executives the date of relieving order from that posted
SSA was mentioned. WE assured him to submit the proposal at the earliest.
16.
Issues with Posting of
Executives to WTR: WE have brought to
notice of CGMT MH in consideration of request transfers from MH Circle to WTR
and specifically issues created in posting of JTO WTR Gadchiroli. Many officers
are posted to WTR and there are certain officers who are working in WTR having
stay higher than the long styed officer in Maharashtra Circle, but for posting
at Gadchiroli certain compulsions are created certain officers and it is beyond
understanding. One JTO who has joined at Gadchiroli SSA and shifted family is
again compelled by transferring to WTR Gadchiroli, others who are willing are
not given consideration and there is need of review for present practice of
posting officers at specific place by Maharashtra Circle. CGMT MH assured that
the matter of posting to WTR Gadchiroli will be reviewed and corrective action
will be taken.
17.
Wrong procedure followed
in giving LA Arrangements for SDE Elect post: We have narrated the entire issue how the officers in Electrical wing
have wrongly interpreted the orders for deployment of Officers under Look After
arrangements. We categorically pointed out the guidelines say that local
officer is to be ordered to look after arrangements to fill up vacant post and
not by created and abolishing the posts. We have updated that some of SSAs have
excess SDEs in Electrical wing and some of SSAs do not have even single SDE is
Electrical wing. AS per orders from BSNL CO, the JTO Electrical senior in SSA
was to be given SDE Elect under Looking after arrangements to fill up vacant
post and not to give SDE LA to all senior officers from that SSAs. We also
elaborated that we have discussed this issue with CE Elect and GM HR Admn
Mumbai and both agrees with the concern raised by SNEA and pointing out fingers
with other for corrective action. We added that GM HR Admn has informed that
number of posts is to be decided by CE Elect and he cannot act on it and has
assured to look into grievances if conveyed in writing. CGMT MH gave patient
listening to issue and assured to look into it and corrective action as per norms
to fill up vacant post of SDE Electrical in SSAs like Nashik, Nanded and
Sindhudurg.
18.
Centralization of Civil
and Elect wing HR activities as that of Account wing: We have narrated issues created due to partial merger of
Civil, Electrical and Account wing in Staff section and delicacy of works. We
have narrated incidents that how transfer orders are issued by Staff section as
well by Electrical wing on selective basis and there is no streamline
procedure. CGMT MH informed that the concern of association will be taken care
and he will discuss these issues with GM HR Admn Mumbai and then decide.
19.
Proper merger of
Electrical and Civil wing in Telecom at SSA: We narrated the hardship faced by the executives in Civil and
Electrical wing due to dual reporting and giving dual work of Civil/Elect wing
as well as Telecom wig and how the concerned officers are facing hardship in
giving justification to the both the type of works. We requested that these
executives should report to SSA/BA Heads and dual reporting should be stopped
and the work assigned may be either from Electrical/Civil wing or from Telecom
wing/ We also requested that HR activities of Civil
Electrical wing should be totally merged with SSA and their grievances should
be given die consideration by SSA/BA Heads. CGMT MH informed that as per
revised norms the executives in Civil/Electrical wing in SSAs will report to
SSA/BA Heads and merger demand will be automatically settled. But in Circle
Office Mumbai, separate wing of Electrical and Civil wing will continue to
function.
20.
Release of withheld Leave
Encashment /Ex Garcia of VRS Opted
Executives: We informed CGMT MH that Staff/Recruit Section Mumbai has kept
on hold the withheld Leave Encashment /Ex Garcia of VRS Opted Executives on
name of pending cases wherein BSNL Corporate Office has repeatedly issued
guidelines for releasing leave encashment. Also there are certain office whose
vigilance clearance is issued and no case is pending as on VRS date or till
today, but under fear of certain issues, their amount is kept on hold. We also
narrated that TA/DA of certain officers has bene kept
on held for unknown reasons. Due to this casual approach there is much rest
among the VRS opted executives who have not received Leave encashment or
Ex-gratia amount and are feeling that they are deliberately harassed. CGMT MH
informed that leave encashment and ex-gratia amount of all except the
executives whose names appears in Caste validity case or whose VC withheld is
released. Till VC is clear, the dues of such officers cannot be cleared. For
releasing the amount of leave encashment and other retirement benefits of
executives in caste validity case is sent to BSNL Corporate and further course
of action will be taken as per clarification from BSNL CO. We requested to give
it fast consideration so that the affected executives will get justice.
21.
Pay fixation of then JTO Offg. who have opted for VRS: We have narrated issues in fixation pay of VRS opted then
Officiating JTOs as per the recent orders from BSNL CO. We have requested that
it is also priority work to finalize the amount ex-gratia and there reminders
have been issued by Estt Section Mumbai. But the work
of revised pay fixation is not done as service books are available with CCA and
same are not returned by CCA after repeated reminders from SSAs. CGMT MH
informed that as issue is related to CCA, association should submit the brief
note on it so that matter can be taken up with CCA Mumbai for returning service
book of all VRS Opted then Offg JTOs. Releasing of
amount of VRS Opted executives whose service books are not handed over to CCA.
In conclusion we conveyed thanks to CGMT MH
with hopes for early resolution of the issues discussed.

·
From the vacancy position and availability of DEs/AGMs, it
is clear that except few SSAs, it is quite possible to give DGM LA as it is
where it is basis.
·
In this letter one line is specifically and wrongly added
that “no refusals will be accepted” even though in such attempt to make
compulsions in LA arrangements by then CGMT MH, BSNL CO has issued clear
guidelines specifically to CGMT MH Circle that executives need not to be forced

·
In this regards it is to inform that this calculation of

Operation Head in SSA and the requirement of JTOs/SDEs and DEs in field units
is being calculated and same also will be published shortly.

AGM Elect BSNL

any particular Circle for posting at Assam, NE-I, NE-II , J&K and Jharkhand Circles. Letter <<<>>>
·
Similar willingness were called
earlier also, but only few have responded and till post of SDEE are vacant in
these Circle. It seems that to get more options, this time criteria of stay of
25 years is applied.
·
The last date for submission of willingness/options is
30/10/2020.
·
The stay of SDEs will be counted
from his/her entry in JTO Cadre and one has to submit option only if he has
completed continuous stay of 25 years in particular Circle.
·
Also, as per transfer policy
Executive with age 55 years and more as on 31/03/2021, is not be posted to all
India Hard Tenure stations and in such cases SDE with continuous Circle stay
more than 25 years, but age above 55 years, need out to submit option for All
India hard Tenure Station, but he/she may be transferred to Jharkhand Circle if
age as on 31/03/2021 is less than 57 years.
·
Submission of options is not mandatory,
but in such cases posting of SDE with age less than 55 years and with
continuous stay more than 25 years in particular Circle to Jharkhand Circles is
quiet possible.
·
It would have been better if
willingness would have been called by declaring number of vacant post of SDE
Elect in these Circles along with Circle stay particulars of executives with
continuous service of 25 years in particular Circle.
·
Posting in all these Circles except
in Jharkhand Circle will be posting to all India Hard Tenure Stations and SDE
Elect giving option for it will get benefits of all India Hard tenure Stations.
·
Individuals, may have self-analysis
of stay, age and other factors and then only decide to submit
option/willingness.

GM HR Admn
Mumbai writes all SSA/BA Heads Use of
BSNL Email service for official communication. As per the circular dated
08/12/2017. Letter <<<>>>
·
The contents of letter for use of only BSNL ID for official
communication are highly appreciated.
·
But constraints in using BSNL email for office works are
well known to one and all and hence for all email communications from SSAs to
BSNL Corporate office, including highest Officers in BSNL Management, all are
using Gmail or other email ID and BSNL email ID is least used rather not used by
majority of officers.
·
Also, the work of migration of BSNL email id on NIC server
is going on along with works of e file management system and till time the
e-file system is not implemented in all SSAs it is difficult to use only BSNL
email ID as expected in this letter by GM HR Admn Mumbai.
·
It can be seen that different officers in BSNL Corporate
Office and in Circle Office including different officers in IT section as well
as officers under GM HR Admn Mumbai are using emails other than BSNL email ID
as such this letter will be one more formal letter and such orders can be
implemented in true sense only if the Capacity constraints and hardship in
using BSNL email ID are taken care to its root cause.
·
Let us hope that BSNL email ID is made useful in all respect
so that all Officers in BSNL use only and only BSNL email ID as conveyed in
this special letter.

AD Staff B
Mumbai issued orders for extension of powers of SSA/BA Heads for deployment of
staff and officers up to AGM/DE grade under local Looking After Arrangements up
to 31/12/2020. Letter <<<>>>
·
In earlier orders BSNL Corporate office has issued extension
up to 31/12/2020, but in Maharashtra Circle extension was issued up to
30/09/2020 and as nothing has happened on restructuring by that date, this
order is being now extended at par with BSNL CO Order up to 31/12/2020.
·
This order is implanted in biased manner and it is used only
for officers in Telecom Wing and the Looking after arrangements for officers
from Electrical, Account wing are being issued centrally from Mumbai.
·
It is failure of BSNL Corporate office that even after
completion of one year of VRS 2019, till today no staffing norms are issued and
it is expected to have much efficient working from the filed units.
·
The efficient working needs to be started from BSNL Corporate
Office and then only same can be expected from the filed units, but this issue
is kept undecided from last one year and executives are kept under tension of
additional workload without any proper rearrangements to have efficient and
smart working expected after VRS 2019.
20 OCT 20:
AD Staff B
Mumbai issued special transfer and posting order of Four SDFEs and Four JTOs
from different Non tenure SSAs as per the Circle long stay list and all eight
Officers are posted to Sindhudurg SSA as additional workforce than the
justified workforce. Letter <<<>>>
·
In recent past, the Circle Office Mumbai has issued transfer
orders of Tenure completed executives from all tenure SSAs and substitute were
posted as per the justified norms before orders for consolidation of BAs as per
recent orders from BSNL CO.
·
In that scenario, as per calculations done by GM HR Admn
Mumbai, excess executives were posted than the justified strength thereby
giving consideration to request of all officers and who have opted for Tenure
SSA including Sindhudurg SSA and many of them are posted at Own Cost even
though it is tenure stations.
·
Apart from this some JEs are posted in excess to Sindhudurg
SSA and after BA consolidation orders, there are excess Executives in
Sindhudurg SSA as compared to other SSAs from where the executives are
transferred.
·
Hence as per the justification calculated by GM HR Admn
Mumbai, there were chances that the all officers under transfer from tenure
Stations would have been relieved without substitute and some more willingness
were required to be considered without substitute.
·
But, BA Head Kolhapur under which Sindhudurg SSA comes has
taken stand that no officer from Sindhudurg SSA will be relieved till one to
one substitute is posted and he has conveyed it to CGMT MH in writing.
·
Meantime, political pressure was created for posting
additional Officers in Sindhudurg SSA and accordingly complaints were made to
BSNL Corporate Office, thereby creating huge pressure of CGMT MH for posting
additional Executives with stand that no executive will be relieved till one to
one substitute is joined in Sindhudurg SSA.
·
Finally, CGMT MH has to bend under such pressure from all
sides thereby posting these eight more officers i.e. SDEs/JTOs to Sindhudurg
SSAs as special order.
·
The pressure on CGMT MH is so huge that under this pressure
one of JTO working at Nandurbar which is Circle
tenure Station is transferred to Sindhudurg SSA against guidelines for posting
substitute to Tenure SSAs.
·
It is fact that BA/SSA Heads who dares to speak to CGMT MH
on issues with firm stand are given consideration by out of tur
ways and the others who do not have such direct interaction with CGMT MH are
not getting any staff even though some own cost request are pending for these
SSAs.
·
Hope this excess posting of executives will be helpful for
relieving all officers under transfer from Sindhudurg SSA and all the executives
will get relief from ongoing torture for last six months.
·
This is wrong trend started in Maharashtra Circle for
removing executives from SSA having shortage of executives but SSA/BA Heads are
not able to bring it to the notice of CGMT MH in proper way and posting them in
mass to SSAs having even excess executives but where BA/SSA Head is/are able to
maintain /create pressure on CGMT MH, will be damaging to the working of BSNL.
·
SNEA MH will take up this pick and choose approach in

last pay drawn, date of joining, date of birth and Time Bound promotions. Letter <<<>>>

It is unfortunate that out of total 2178 such pending cases
all Over India, here also Maharashtra Circle has highest pendency of 897 cases

executives.
·
Let us hope Maharashtra Circle responds to this letter and
settle the issues with CCA Mumbai and the concern of BSNL in getting correct
ex-gracia amount from DoT to all VRS Optees is given conclusive result in true sense and 4th
installment which was due by end of June 2020 is paid to all at least by end of
Oct 2020 i.e. after period of four months delay.

This really disgusting that after repeated letters from
Director BSNL in last six months till 607 cases are pending all over India for
payment of Leave Encashment and it is unfortunate that about 40% cases are
pending only in Maharashtra Circle.
·
It seems that letter by Director HR on this subject are
shown dust bin in casual approach and its really serious matter on part of
organization.
·
VRS 2019 is implemented in January 2020 and it was ordered
and expected that leave encashment will be paid by end of Feb 2020, but
unfortunately after passing eight months also these officers and staff are made
to suffer due to negligent approach of certain officers may be due to approach
of understanding of the issues and hardship of these sufferers by certain
officers at different level and offices.
·
It is reported that there is dispute on understanding of
issues by Maharashtra Circle and CCA Mumbai and issues are not resolved even
after meetings at higher level by CGMT MH and CCA Mumbai.
·
Hope this letter will be taken seriously by both the offices
and responsible officers at both the ends and leave encashment payment is
released for all these 229 pending cases or reasons for nonpayment of leave
encashment are intimated to these individuals along with compliance to Director
HR.
·
If not BSNL Corporate Office, should fix responsibility
because it is now crystal clear that such repeated reminders directly from
Director HR BSNL will not solve the issue to final conclusive solution.

EE HQ Mumbai
issued Looking After arrangements from JTO Elect to SDE Elect cadre for period
of 179 days with immediate effect wherein 22 JTOs in Electrical wing are given
responsibility of SDE Electrical with functional powers i.e. Administrative and
as well as financial powers. Order <<<>>>
·
It is good that the executives working as JTO for long time
are given responsibility of SDE Elect under Look after Arrangements under where
it is as it is basis.
·
The orders for looking After arrangements are normally
issued for filling temporary vacancies created due to different reasons, but
since last spell, Electrical wing is following different method for giving
looking After arrangements and in some SSAs excess Executives are given
responsibility of SDE Elect and in some SSAs no local Officer is given
responsibility of SDE Electrical keeping post vacant or by giving charge to SDE
LA in other SSAs and this tradition continues in this spell also.
·
As per recent BSNL CO guidelines, the Look After
arrangements are to be given locally wherein the senior most local executives
in lower cadre is to be given higher responsibility to fill up the vacant post
if any.
·
Same procedure is followed in Telecom and Account wing, but
in the Electrical wing looking after arrangement is given to certain executives
by creating extra post of SDEs and some of vacant post of SDEs/EEs and SEs are
not filled thereby depriving the some specific officers from giving higher
responsibility.
·
This issue was raised by SNEA MH earlier with all concerned
including CGMT MH, and it was assured by all that same will be corrected in
next spell of SDEE LA arrangements.
·
But it seems that due to wrong understanding of some of
officers in Electrical wing and not going to the depth by officers in Staff
sections, the wrong procedure is followed in SDE Elect LA arrangements being
issued centrally by Electrical wing Mumbai.
·
Actually, the work of HR activities for all wings including
Electrical wing is centralized under GM HR Admn Mumbai, but Electrical wing
continues to issue some pick and choose orders as well as such orders for Look
After arrangements when one special JTO Electrical is posted in Staff Section
Mumbai for HR activities of Electrical wing thereby making duplicity of HR
works of Electrical wing.
·
Some of SDEs given looking after in last spell are not
included in this list and no justified reason is given for it.
·
Actually, there are some post of SDE Electrical vacant at
SSAs like Nashik, Ratnagiri, Sindhudurg and Nanded SSAs and no action has been
taken to fill up these posts locally i.e. by giving charge of SDE Electrical to
JTO Electrical at that SSA, but the more JTOs from other SSAs are given Looking
After arrangement as SDE Electrical and they are given additional charge of SDE
Elect of that SSA which is against BSNL guidelines on the subject.
·
It can be seen that Dhule SSA is having post of only one SDE
Electrical and three JTOs are posted as SDE Electrical Dhule. One of such SDE
Elect from Dhule is given additional charge of SDE Electrical Nashik, whereas
it was required that senior most JTO Electrical at Nashik should have been
given charge as SDE Electrical Nashik and only one JTO in Dhule SSA should have
been given SDE Electrical under Looking After arrangements.
·
Same is case with Latur, Satara, and Raigad where more than
justified post of SDEEs are created and vacant post at Nanded, Ratnagiri and
Sindhudurg SSA are not filled in and charge is given to SDEs in other SSAs.
·
When three SDE post are justified in small SSA like Dhule,
no such additional strength of SDEs is shown in big SSAs like Pune and Nagpur.
·
There are good number of post of EEs (Executive Engineer)
vacant in Maharashtra Circle and post of EE Nanded, Pune, and Nashik etc is looked after by EE at Mumbai, but no action is taken
for filling vacant post of EEs at these places.
·
It is seen that Look After arrangements, Electrical wing is
using different method, Telecom wing is using different method and Account wing
is using different method and there is need of synchronization and this is main
purpose of centralized HR Integration under GM HR Admn Mumbai.
·
But till concerned Vertical Heads like Electrical continues
to issue orders of some specific executives and others are in general are
directed to meet GM HR Admn Mumbai for their grievances.
·
As per guidelines issued by BSNL Corporate Office, the
powers for Looking After arrangements up to AGM/DE Cadre are given to SSA/BA
Heads and DGM LA orders are issued by Circle office Mumbai.
·
But in Electrical wing even SDE LA orders are issued from
Circle Office and the method adopted is wrong i.e. instead of filling vacant
post, additional posts are created to give powers to more than one SDE and no
efforts are made to fill vacant posts in some specific SSAs even in this second
spell of SDEE Looking after Arrangements.
·
SNEA MH will again take up matter to have uniformity in
Looking After Arrangements and also to have either all activities of Electrical
wing are centralized and kept under GM HR Admn Mumbai or continue to be under
control of concerned Vertical head so that all executives gets equal treatment
in resolution of HR issues.

refers to a business deal in which buyers and sellers act independently without
one party influencing the other. A transaction between related parties
that is conducted as if they were not related. For example, if a parent sold a
child some property at a fair market price, rather than a discount, the
transaction would be made at arm's length range.
