The court case filed by Shri Amarjeet against BSNL in CAT Chandigarh on seniority issue thereby granting stay on AGM to DGM Telecom Regular as well as Adhoc Promotions, was listed for hearing today i.e. 03/08/2026 at Sr No 47. But the same was not heard due to the paucity of time. On special request of BSNL advocate for posting this case for early hearing, the case is now posted for the next hearing on 27/08/2026.
After detailed hearing the case on 02/07/2026 and an excellent presentation by the Senior advocate of BSNL for more than one hour with detailed submission in case and request to allow BSNL to go ahead with DGM promotions subject to outcome of the case as Administration is facing difficulties. BSNL also submitted that though the applicant is not eligible for promotions as of now, if desired by Hon. CAT one post can be reserved for applicant. But advocate of applicant submitted that some more applications are submitted in the case and the same needs to be heard and issues raised by applicants need to be given consideration. In the next hearing which was held on 27/07/2026, advocate for applicant submitted the documents as directed by Hon CAT in the last hearing and the case was posted for hearing on 03/08/2026. Now the next date is also given with a short time and it enhances the chances of some concrete decision in this case.
We are hopeful that in the next hearing Hon CAT will take decision on the case as final submission from both the sides is as good as completed and if not at least decision on request of BSNL to go ahead with DGM Telecom Regular Promotions will be given consideration.
