Dear
comrades
,
OUR
STAND POINTS ON APAR AND BATCH CONCEPT UPHELD BY HON’BLE MADRAS
HIGH COURT
The
issues confronting the officers in our Bank are:
1.
APAR Marks: It is our organisation in our Bank, through judicial
intervention in 2012, brought substantial
relief to officers in the matter of APAR marks which is considered an
importantingredient
in the promotion process. Not only that, we have brought in, in the
process, anappeal
provision against the APAR marks awarded by the higher authorities,
as an element ofbias
prevails in awarding marks to officers. In the last process of
promotion (2013-14),management
had implemented sincerely the procedure established by our
organisation inthe
bank.
But
this time (2014-15), the bank has altered the “applicability of
APAR marks” only for thepromotion
process from Scale 1 to 2 and Scale 2 to 3, i.e., instead of average
of 75% marks
for
the preceding three years, prescribed in the Government Guidelines,
every year theabove
mentioned officers are to secure 75% marks. Our organisational
contention is that in
the
same promotion process (2014-15), there cannot be two different
yardsticks for selectionpertaining
to APAR marks. Our sincere appeals have not evoked the reasonable
response
from
the management to correct the unscientific application of rules.
- UNIFORM APPLICATION OF BATCH CONCEPT FOR PROMOTION:Bank while recruiting the Scale 1 officers in the year 2011 permitted the new recruits to join on or before 04.07.2011. There were officers who had reported for duty in July 2011.As the number of eligible officers is falling short, the bank has considered a relaxationof 3 months and 1 day. The government guidelines provide inclusion of batch for thepurpose of promotion. We have requested the Bank to include the entire batchof officers so as to enable them to participate in the process of selection.Bank has failed to see the reasoning behind our arguments.
- CONVERSION OF RDOS – A REPEAT EXERCISE DEMANDED:The promotion policy for officers provides conversion of specialized category to main stream on completion of five years. Accordingly, we have taken up the issue of conversion of Specialized Category of Officers to
Main
Stream. The paradox of conversion exercise is that a RDO having 5
years of service to
his credit to head the branch as Branch Manager
is declared ineligible to join main stream
based on 3 to 5 minutes
personal interview. In our Bank, a directly recruited officer on
mere
completion of 2 years is eligible to move to Scale 2, whereas
even after completion of 5 years
of service and handling the branch
as a Branch Head is denied of conversion in the same
scale.
The
so called officers’ federation has already enjoying the comfort of
hibernation. As advised by
the AIBOA leadership, our organisation having committed to the
welfare of officers’
community
in our Bank has sought relief through Judicial Intervention.
“We
are happy to report that
the Hon’ble High Court of Madras has passed an order directing the
Bank to allow the members
of our organisation who were affected by APAR as well as Batch
Concept to participate
in the examination”.
Please
await for further communication.
With
Greetings,
Yours
Comradely,
(D.

Secretary
