Communique From ITSA CHQ 2012-05-18 16:24:10

The miscellaneous petitions filed by BSNL/MTNL IN Delhi High Court seeking extension of time for relieving the ITS officers as per the judgement dated 17-04-2012 came up for hearing today,

As expected BSNL/MTNL lawyer argued for extension of deadline on the basis of the fact that the operations of these companies will collapse if all these officers are relieved immediately. The time asked for was more than 2 years. The court was not at all ready for this.

ITSA lawyer opposed the request very vehemently and effectively. It was because of his arguments and also courts own understanding of the matter they were not prepared to grant such long extension. The court finally settled and ordered the time upto 30-09-2012 for BSNL/MTNL to relieve all the ITS officers who have opted for reversion to Govt. Let there be no confusion as this means that all 970 ITS in BSNL and 87 ITS in MTNL will be covered by this order.
