<p>Guidelines under BSNLMRS in view of Covid-19 pandemic: BSNL</p>



<p class="has-text-align-center">BHARAT SANCHAR NIGAM LIMITED<br />Corporate Office<br />Admin &amp; PR Branch<br />1st Floor, Bharat Sanchar Bhawan,<br />H.C.Mathur Lane, Janpath,<br />New Delhi-110001</p>



<p>No BSNLCO-ADMN/11(15)/2/2021-ADMN</p>



<p class="has-text-align-right">Dated 3rd May 2021</p>



<p>To,</p>



<p>All the CGMs/Unit Heads,<br />BSNL</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Sub : Guidelines under BSNLMRS in view of Covid-19 pandemic</strong></h3>



<p>In order to facilitate quick and smooth treatment to our employees during Covid-19 pandemic, following guidelines undei BSNLMRS are issued</p>



<p>1. <strong>Visit of designated officer</strong> – There is a provision that in all cases involving hospitalization of two or more than two days, a designated officer of BSNL shall visit the hospital and give a prescribed certificate (Guidelines issued vide Order No BSNL/Admn.1/15-2/05(Pt.) dated 8th August 2005). Considering the infectious nature of this disease and to protect our employees from exposure to this virus while visiting the hospital, the requirement of visit of designated officer of BSNL to the hospital and giving the prescribed certificate is dispensed with for all the diseases. However, a random check may be made, if felt necessary. Further, all other instructions including attachment of a certificate by the concerned doctor identifying the patient in the copy of BSNLMRS Card as conveyed by this office OM No. BSNL/Admn.I/15-4/04(Pt) dated 15 10.2004 and authorization for indoor treatment shall be strictly followed.</p>



<p>2&nbsp;<strong>Treatment in non-empanelled hospitals</strong>&nbsp;– In normal circumstances, indoor treatment should be taken only from BSNL empanelled hospitals. As per the existing provisions in MRS policy “In emergency cases, the reimbursement will be allowed for treatment in non-recognized hospitals with the approval of CGM for field office employees and concerned Director of BSNL Board for C.O. employees The amount will be restricted to the CGHS rates applicable at Delhi”. However, in view of the present crisis in availability of treatment of Covid-19 in empanelled hospitals, the requirement of taking indoor treatment of Covid patients only from BSNL empanelled hospitals is dispensed with. However, the amount shall be restricted to the CGHS rates as decided for Covid-19.</p>



<p>3.&nbsp;<strong>Reimbursement of Tele-consultation</strong>&nbsp;– During this pandemic tele-consultation is preferred mode of consultation from a doctor. Hence, Tele-consultation by a registered medical practitioner from India, supported by duly signed/computer generated prescription on doctor’s letter head and accompanied by valid, printed (system generated) or signed receipt shall be valid.</p>



<p>4. <strong>Charges of RTPCR / Rapid antigen test</strong> – Charges shall be reimbursed against the production of valid receipt but without the need of medical prescription. However the rates shall be restricted to the prescribed sates by the concerned State Govt. In case no rate has been prescribed by the State Govt. the rates prescribed by the Govt of NCT shall be applicable. These charges shall be reimbursable as part of the annual ceiling for out-door limit under BSNLMRS.</p>



<p>The above orders will be applicable w.e.f. 01.04.2021 and remain in effect for 6 months i.e. up to 30.09.2021 or till further orders, whichever is earlier. All other provisions of BSNLMRS shall be strictly followed.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Sub: Grant of annual increment falling due on the next day of superannuation/ retirement, for the purpose of pensionary benefits &#8211; Guidelines regarding.</h3>



<p>Sir,</p>



<p>Of late, this Office has been receiving many Court Cases as well as letters from various Telecom Circles seeking guidelines for disposal of representations received from retired employees, regarding grant of national increment falling due on the next day of superannuation/ retirement etc. for the purpose of pensionary benefits.</p>



<p>2. . In this regard , I am directed to forward herewith DOP&amp;T O.M . No. 19/2 /2018-Estt (Pay-I) dated 03/02/2021 , along with its enclosures, with regard to grant of notional increment for pensionary benefits in pursuance of the judgement dated 15/09/2017 of Hon ‘ble High Court of Madras in W. P. No. 15732 of 2017 in the case of P. Ayyamperumal Vs. Union of India &amp; Ors.</p>



<p>3. DOP&amp;T vide its aforesaid O.M has mentioned that the judgment dated 15/09/2017 of Hon&#8217;ble High Court of Madras in W.P. No. 15732 of 2017 in the case of P.Ayyamperumal Vs Union of India &amp; Ors is in personal in nature. In this regard, a brief note reflecting the Government’s stand on the instant issue has been attached as Annexure-1.</p>



<p>4 . Further, it has been mentioned that in a similar case, the Hon ‘ble Supreme Court, vide judgement dated 29/03/2019, while dismissing the SLP (C) Dy. No. 6468/2019 filed by DOT against the judgement dated 03/05/2017 of Hon ‘ble High Court, Lucknow Bench in W .P. No. 484 /2010 in the matter of UOI &amp; Ors. Vs. Sakha Ram Tripathy &amp; Ors., has inter alia, observed the following :</p>



<p><em>” There is delay of 566 day s in filing the special leave petition. We don’t see any reason to condone the delay. The Special leave petition is dismissed on delay,<strong>&nbsp;keeping all the questions of law open.”</strong></em></p>



<p>5. Since the question of law on the instant issue is open and not yet decided, the decision for implementation of the judgment dated 15/09/2017 of Hon&#8217;ble High Court of Madras in W .P. No. 15732 of 2017 in Shri P. Ayyamperumal case, in <em>rem </em>has not been taken.</p>

<p>5. Accordingly, all the Telecom Circles/ Other Administrative Units/Cadre Controlling Units of BSNL Corporate Office are requested to dispose of the grievances/ representations received from various retired employees of BSNL in the light of the aforesaid guidelines issued by DOP&amp;T.

<p class="has-text-align-right">Dated: 3rd Sep, 2020</p>



<p>To,<br />All Heads of Telecom Circles &amp;<br />All Heads of Other Administrative Units,<br />Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited</p>



<p><strong>Subject: Immediate settlement of pending issues in respect of retired employees under BSNL VRS-2019.</strong></p>



<p>Sir,<br />I am directed to refer to this office letter of Even no. dated 06.08.2020 on the above cited subject and to say that the updation of service particular e.g. Last pay drawn, qualifying service etc in the ERP / SAP as per the details in PPOs generated by CCAs have not been carried out in respect of large number of retirees under BSNL VRS-2019. The task was required to be completed by 14.08.2020. Non-updation in ERP/ SAP is delaying the finalizing of the Ex-gratia amount, Leave encashment and calculation of arrears / over-payment. This activity has to be completed on top priority before the amount of 4th instalment of Ex-gratia amount is received from DOT so that total Ex-Gratia is calculated accurately before the payment of 4th installment of Ex-Gratia and there is no mismatch in the PPO data and ERP data.</p>



<p>Also check: <strong><a href="https://centralgovernmentnews.com/bsnl-basic-pay-plus-dearness-allowance-drawn-by-the-employees-on-the-effective-date-of-voluntary-retirement/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BSNL – Basic Pay plus Dearness Allowance drawn by the employees on the effective date of voluntary retirement</a></strong></p>



<p>2. Further, the ERP HCM team has reported that in respect of around 640 retirees (circlewise summary enclosed) under the <a href="https://centralgovernmentnews.com/category/bsnl/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BSNL</a> VRS-2019 Leave encashment has not been paid. In this regard, it is again requested to release the payment of encashment of EL / HPL immediately as per the extant instructions on the issue.</p>



<p>3. Non completion of activity by 14.8.2020 has been viewed very seriously by DIR(HR). Therefore, CGMT concerned may bestow their personal attention to complete the task latest by 05.09.2020 without fail.</p>



<p>This is issued with the approval of competent authority.</p>

<p>F.No: BSNLCO-A/11(11)/8/2020-ESTAB</p>



<p>To,</p>



<p>All Heads of Telecom Circles &amp;<br />All Heads of Other Administrative Units,<br />Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited</p>



<p>Subject: <strong>Grant of time bound financial up-gradation under EPP/NEPP in respect of the VRS- 2019 retirees, which was due before their voluntary retirement on 31.01.2020.</strong></p>



<p>Sir,</p>



<p>Attention is invited to Para 2 (j) of VRS Scheme circulated vide letter No.1-15/2019-PAT (BSNL) dated 4th November, 2019, which stipulates that “salary” means Basic Pay plus Dearness Allowance thereon as applicable on the effective date of voluntary retirement. Para 6.1(a) of the Scheme further stipulates that ex-gratia compensation will be payable on the basis of salary i.e. Basic Pay plus Dearness Allowance drawn by the employees on the effective date of voluntary retirement. It was expected that time bound financial up-gradation under EPP/NEPP in respect of the VRS-2019 retirees were granted from the dates on which it was due. However, it has come to notice of the Corporate Office that time bound financial up-gradation in respect of some of the VRS-2019 retirees, which was due before their voluntary retirement on 31.01.2020, have not been granted so far. This will have a bearing on the pension and terminal benefits including Ex-Gratia of such VRS retirees. As you are already aware, the amount of Ex-Gratia is to be paid by DOT, Govt. of India and the fourth installment of Ex-Gratia is also to be released by DOT shortly.</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list" start="2"><li>As a one-time measure, time bound financial upgradation under the EPP /NEPP, which was due to VRS retirees before their retirement, may be completed latest by 30th August, 2020. It may also be ensured that no case of upgradation under EPP/NEPP in respect of VRS optees is left out. The Circles are required to furnish a certificate signed by CGM, GM(HR) and IFA that all such cases have been completed. Any case of time bound upgradation of VRS retirees being reported later on will be viewed seriously and the concerned officers / official will be held personally responsible for any short payment received from DOT.</li><li>This issues with the approval of Competent Authority,</li></ol>

<p>2. The matter has been examined afresh and the DoT letter dated 24.03.2003 has been superseded by <strong><a href="https://centralgovernmentnews.com/tag/DoT/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DoT</a></strong> letter No. 36-9/2002-Pen(T)Pt. dated 05.06.2020 (copy enclosed).</p>

<p>The Chairman and Managing Director,<br />Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL),<br />Bharat Sanchar Bhavan, Harish Chandra Mathur Lane,<br />Janpath, New Delhi-110 001.</p>



<p>Subject: <strong>Release of Pensionary benefits to employees against whom Personal Court Case (other than departmental) is pending in the court</strong>.</p>



<p>Sir,</p>



<p>This refers BSNL letters No. 1-15/2019- PAT (BSNL) (Part) dated 30.01.2020, No. 22-92/2017/ General/Vol.I dated 5.7.2018 mentioned therein, and earlier references from <strong><a href="https://centralgovernmentnews.com/category/bsnl/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BSNL</a></strong> on the subject. :</p>



<p>2. The matter has been examined in light of the advice rendered by Department of Pension &amp; a Pensioners Welfare vide ID Note No. 4-9/2018-Vig.I (pt) dated 28.09.2018 (copy enclosed).</p>



<p>3.. Department of Pension &amp; Pensioners’ Welfare vide the above referred ID Note on the question whether judicial proceedings initiated against a Government servant by the state police on the basis of a complaint by a private party for any action-other than in any official capacity would come under the ambit of Rule 69 of CCS (Pension) Rules 1972 &#8211; conveyed the following:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li> If a Government servant is convicted during the period of service, action is taken under Rule 19 of the CCS (CCA) Rules and a penalty under Rule 11 of the CCS (CCA) Rules is imposed. Such action under said Rules is taken irrespective of whether the conviction is on account of charges connected with his official capacity or otherwise. Once a Government servant retires, action cannot be taken against him under CCS (CCA) Rules. After retirement, if the Government servant is found guilty of misconduct during service action can be taken under Rule 9(i) of the <strong><a href="https://centralgovernmentnews.com/category/ccs/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CCS</a></strong> (Pension) rules and his pension/ gratuity can be withhold/ withdrawn.</li><li>DoP&amp;PW is of the view that all misconduct under CCS (Conduct) Rules for which the Government servant could be punished under the CCS (CCA) Rules, during the period of service would be covered by the provisions of Rule 9 and Rule 69 of the CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972. Therefore, after retirement, in cases where the judicial proceedings for any act during service (whether in official capacity or otherwise) which could be termed as misconduct under the provisions of CCS (Conduct) Rules are continued after retirement, such judicial proceedings shall come under the purview of Rule 9 and Rule 69 of CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972.</li></ul>



<p>4. The applicability of the above advice on other cases of similar nature has been examined. In view of the explicit advice rendered by Department of Pension &amp; Pensioners’ Welfare reproduced above, the previous DoT letter No. 36-9/2002- Pen(T) dated 24.03.2003 in this regard is hereby superseded by the above advice rendered by Department of Pension &amp; Pensioners’ Welfare.</p>



<p>5. As regards the applicability of the above to VRS optees under BSNL VRS-2019, it is to intimate that there is no ruling for any differential treatment to these retirees.</p>



<p>6. This issues with the approval of Secretary (T).</p>



<p>Encl: As above.</p>

<p>No.48-13/2019-Pen (B)</p>



<p style="text-align:right">Dated: 04-11-2019</p>



<p>To<br /> All Heads of Circles/ Telecom Districts/ Regions/ Projects/<br /> Telecom Stores/ Telecom Factories &amp; Other Administrative Offices<br /> Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited</p>



<p>Sub: <strong>Implementation of BSNL Voluntary Retirement Scheme, 2019 &#8211; Augmentation of staff strength in Pension Cells in Circles and other administrative units for smooth and timely settlement of pension cases</strong>.</p>



<p>Sir,<br />
I am directed to invite your kind attention to this office letter no. 1-15/2009-PAT (BSNL) dated 04.11.2019 regarding introduction and implementation of BSNL Voluntary Retirement Scheme, 2019.</p>



<p>As per the said scheme, employees aged 50 years or above are eligible to opt for voluntary retirement w.e.f. 31.01.2020 and it is expected that a sizable number of eligible employees would be opting for voluntary retirement under the scheme. Consequently, the workload of the pension settlement units in circles and other administrative units are expected to increase manifold. Moreover, some of the eligible employees who are presently posted in pension settlement units may also opt for voluntary retirement under the scheme. It would, therefore, be necessary to arrange for suitable substitutes for such employees for maintaining continuity</p>



<p>In view of above, you are requested to ensure posting of suitable and sufficient number of Executives/ Non-Executives in sections handling pension settlement in Circle/ SSA at the earliest, so that the newly posted employees could be accustomed with the nature of work and pension cases can be processed and settled in timely manner.</p>



<p style="text-align:right">Yours faithfully,<br />
(Sheo Shankar Prasad)<br />
Dy. General Manager (Estt.-l)</p>
