SUBMISSION OF CHARTER OF DEMANDS - IBA REQUESTED FOR A MEETING

Our members may recollect that the Executive Committee of the Confederation constituted a Sub-Committee with a view to prepare a comprehensive Charter of Demands on behalf of the officers’ fraternity under the leadership of Com.P.K.Sarkar, the President of the Confederation.  The Committee met a couple of times and after threadbare deliberations and collecting the views from the affiliates and members from different parts of the country finalized the draft report to be approved by the Executive Committee. After the sub-committee presented the Draft Charter to the Executive Committee of the Confederation a threadbare discussions were held on the subject and the views of the members of the Working Committee was considered and necessary corrections were made in the Charter of Demands.

The Working Committee also suggested that we should discuss the issue of presenting a Common Charter with the other 3 officers’ organization and thereafter should explore the possibility of the submission jointly to the Indian Banks’ Association during the month of October 2012.

The Confederation took initiative and convened a meeting of the Officers’ organization at Chennai for a threadbare discussion on the subject.  The officers’ organizations were unanimous that a comprehensive Common Charter should be submitted after incorporating the suggestions obtained in the meeting.  Accordingly, the comprehensive common charter of demands has since been completed and ready for submission.

We have been receiving anxious enquiries from different parts of the country as to the developments in this regard.  We wish to convey all our members that the Confederation is in readiness to submit the Charter of Demands on behalf of the entire officers’ fraternity along with the other officers’ organization together as agreed in the meeting of the Officers’ organizations.  We have also sent a request to the Indian Banks’ Association for an appointment to enable us to submit the same.

In the meanwhile, due to the festival holidays in particular pooja holidays in different parts of the country, we may have to wait till the end of the month to lead the delegation and submit the Charter of Demands to the Indian Banks Association. The details will be shared with the members all over the country when the task of submitting the Charter of Demands to IBA is completed.

Hence, all our members are requested to await further developments in this regard

With greetings,
