We furnish hereunder the communication sent to the management for the information of all officers:

SINGLE OFFICER BRANCHES

“Last year there were more than 1500 branches throughout the length and breadth of our country managed by single officer and their sufferings were pointed out to our management and subsequently our management was kind enough to proceed with the recruitment of PO’s supported by the manpower planning exercise for the year 2013-14.

At the time of placement of the PO’s after their training schedule, along with the promotional placement of clerical to Scale-I officers, our corporate office vide its letter dated 17th Sep 2013, directed all the field functionaries with the placement guidelines which clearly states that minimum two officers should be provided to the branches.

Contrary to the guidelines, about 700 branches are still being managed by single officer. Without proper redeployment, the field functionaries are demotivating the lone officer in such branches, to absorb all the insurmountable pressures.

The details of Zone wise single officer branches are as under:

ZONE

We again request your good self to direct all the field functionaries to provide second officer to such branches by proper redeployment to safe guard the interest of the Bank under the concept of preventive vigilance”

AGREED LIST/LIST OF OFFICERS OF DOUBTFUL INTEGRITY

“One of the issue that came up for discussion in our last Executive committee meeting held at Chennai was the hardship faced by the officers in the area of disciplinary proceedings with particular reference to the cases of the officers who are under cloud and are kept under scrutiny by the management in the form of maintenance of agreed list as well as the list of officers of doubtful integrity etc. We express our concern that these lists are treated in a most casual manner which defeats the purpose for which it is being maintained/ updated. We are of the view that there is a need to review the existing practice/procedure.

As per the Central Information Commission’s decision on Agreed list No.2183/1 C-F. No. CIC/AT/A/2007/00823 dated 3/4/2008, that the officers included in the Agreed list should be informed about such inclusion and even the contents of inputs should be disclosed to enable the alleged official to prove his innocence.

The CVC with a view to bring about transparency and also in recognition of Principles of Natural Justice has even agreed to share the internal correspondence. When these are the positive indications towards the comfort to be provided to the innocent officers, in reality it is not happening. We therefore request your good selves to kindly consider our suggestions as detailed below:

1.   Even though there is a time frame that the names of the officers will be maintained in the list for a period of 3 years from the date of imposition of penalty, there are occasions that some officers are left in such situation for an indefinite period, hence time frame is again to be reiterated.

2.  The concerned officers should be informed well in time so as to provide for an appeal system, so that the officers placed in the list can exercise their right of appeal.

3.   As per the CVC guidelines, the officers are not to be included in the list, against whom disciplinary proceedings have been completed or in progress in respect of procedural lapses, minor violations of the rules & the like, but the practice adopted by the field functionaries in our bank is that all such cases are routinely being included in both the lists.

We therefore request your good selves to intervene into the matter so that such officers are relieved from the agony & tension due to delays etc.”

We shall inform you the developments in due course.

WITH WARM GREETINGS

Yours Sincerely,
Sd/-
