CIRCULAR NO.: GS: 2013: 010                                        Date: 19.03.2013

TO ALL OFFICERS                                                                       

Dear Friends,

REG:  9^TH TRIENNIAL GENERAL BODY CONFERENCE OF OUR ASSOCIATION ON 21^ST APRIL 2013 AT HYDERABAD

The last General Body Conference of our Association was held at Hyderabad on 03^rd February 2008. Since then several developments have taken place, which you all are aware. Though the General Body Conference was due in the year 2011 itself, we could not conduct the same due to various reasons including financial constraints..

The Managing Committee Meeting of our Association was held recently at Hyderabad and it was decided to conduct the General Body Conference of our Association at Hyderabad on 03^rd March 2013. Accordingly, we have already issued General Body Conference Notice dated 16.01.2013 to all the members.

In the meanwhile, various members have requested to defer the General Body Conference due to SADAK BANDH call given by Telangana J.A.C. on 02^nd March 2013. Accordingly, the General Body Conference, which was to be held on 03^rd March 2013 was deferred to subsequent date.

Now it has been decided to conduct our 9^th Triennial General Body Conference on 21^st April 2013 at Hyderabad.

Friends, we are conducting General Body Conference at a crucial time as the banking industry is poised to witness rapid changes consequent upon introduction of Banking Laws Amendment Bill by the Government of India despite opposition from Trade Unions and others. Wage Revision has also become due on 1^st November 2012. Charter of Demands has already been submitted to Indian Banks’ Association under the leadership of All India Bank Officers’ Confederation (AIBOC) to whom we are affiliated to.

All are aware that Bank Officers have been working under severe stress and strain without sufficient infrastructure. Despite continuous recruitment of Officers over the last three years, the strength of officers in our bank has remained at the same level, which shows the poor Man Power Planning of the management. Yet, the management is indifferent to the sufferings of the officers and forcing them to perform without providing sufficient infrastructure.

Looking at the scenario in the Banking Industry and our Bank, this General Body Conference attains significance as it will be a guiding factor to all of us to face the challenges ahead.
