EditorialON NEW BANKING LICENSING
News:
The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Financehas recommended that Corporate houses shouldnot be given bank licences by RBI. "Bankingbeing a highly leveraged business involving publicmoney and public welfare, the Committee are ofthe considered opinion that it will be more in the
fitness of things to keep industry and bankingseparate," the committee said in its report tabledin Lok Sabha. The standing committee alsoquestioned the rationale behind the view thatmore banks will help in achieving greater financialinclusion. It pointed out that as of March 2013,only 17% of the total branches of private sectorbanks was in rural areas.
Views:
Global Scene
The media is full of reports on the imminent issue
of licenses to form Banks by private players. The
Regulator RBI is treading a cautious path, the
Government of India seems to be impatient to
release the licenses as soon as possible.
In every issue, each stake holder is having ones
own aspirations, objectives and approaches.
For the RBI, the challenges faced by Banking sector
regulators throughout the world on account of thesecond depression faced by the US banking system,
and the tough times they had to undergo in
bringing back the collapsed / dangling economy to
order , would definitely occupy prime importance.

Some of the economies, like Spain, Greece, Cyprus, one can safely argue, all the European
countries other than Germany, are yet to be back from the brink.
United States was the epicenter of the economic earthquake created by the fault lines of
greed, short sightedness and corporate arm twisting. Here, after much differences of opinion
between the Democrats and the Republicans, the process of economic easing was in force for
around two years, the process of tapering, gradual withdrawal of the relief measures has
started.
Indian Perspective
When the so called world gurus in economic science are failing miserably in evolving a
meaningful policy with long term sustainability, what is the urgency and public utility for
hastily introducing new banking licensing is a question being asked by every socially
conscious citizen with economic sense.
Everyone loves humour. Governments are no exception. A great joke was uttered when it was
said that new banking licenses are issued to hasten the process of financial inclusion.
The big corporate houses who have enjoyed tax reliefs worth Rs 5 lac crores even during the
economic slowdown and after the recovery, are urging anditching to bring the poor out of
their 66 years of poverty after independence.
The bulls and bears in the market want to make the farmer, the carpenter and the street
hawker financially independent.
The Industrial houses, whose arrogant push for profits and lack of social concern, ultimately
led to nationalization of Banks in this country in 1969 are rushing to make amends for their
errors and make India financially included.
The Big Bosses who exploit natural resources, rig oil, (to rig the polls?), sell to theGovernment at higher than market prices, who meddle with middlemen and middle women
over radio(a) waves, who rig their balance sheets showing nonexistent cash, who manipulate
the auditors, manipulate prices, bourses, have suddenly appeared as Buddhas in the eyes of
the Government for financial inclusion.
The Parliamentary Committee has asked only one question how many branches have been
opened in rural areas by the existing private banks?
Let the People Ask. Its for the Authority to Answer.
This is the most righteous cause, right time to Ask.
Come What May !Come May (2014) !
The public servants of the Public sector Banks of this country take it as a National Cause to
oppose any move to take this country back to pre-1969 days.

CIRCULAR 5/2014 DATED 13.01.2014: CONCILIATION MEETING BETWEEN IBA &
UFBU CALLED BY CLC
Subsequent to issuance of Notice by UFBU for 48 Hours All India Bank Strike on the
20th and 21st January 2014, the conciliation meeting was held today at New Delhi.
The proceedings were conducted by Shri B.K. Sanwariya, CLC(C). The meeting was
also attended by the officials from Department of Financial Services. IBA was
represented by Shri M.V. Tanksale, Chief Executive Officer, Shri K. Unnikrishnan,
Deputy Chief Executive Officer and other officials.
The leaders of UFBU argued that the meetings are being held with much delay and
there is no seriousness on the part of IBA to conclude the bilateral discussions at the
earliest. UFBU also stated that the offer of 5% given by IBA is too low.
The representatives of IBA stated that so far five rounds of meetings were held and
considering the constraints of banking industry on account of increasing NPAs and also
the rising pension cost, the affordable offer was given by IBA.
The CLC (Central) suggested that another round of talks shall be held between IBA
and UFBU to find amicable solution and further meetings should be held at regular
intervals, say fortnightly, to settle an early wage revision. Agreeing to the suggestions
made by CLC(C), the representatives of IBA offered to hold negotiations with the
representatives of UFBU on 17th January 2014. UFBU has responded and said that it
will attend the negotiation with an open mind and also conveyed that the decision on
strike will depend on the outcome of the meeting to be held on 17th January 2014.
We advise all our affiliates and members to go ahead with the agitational programmesas advised earlier. The outcome of the proposed meeting on the 17th January 2014
will be informed in due course

Strike on 20th and 21st January 2014 deferred
CIRCULAR 8/2014 DATED 22.01.2014: SALARY REVISION - UNITY IS NEED OF THE
HOUR
Our members are aware that the strike was to be observed from 6 a.m. of 20th
January, 2014 till 6 a.m. on 22nd January, 2014. However the strike was deferred
after the revised offer was made by IBA on 17th January, 2014 for 9.5% hike on pay
slip cost and assurance by the IBA to hold negotiations on regular basis and to
complete wage revision exercise by 30th June, 2014.
Amidst these developments we have noticed anger, anguish and remarks of our
members on these developments over social media like facebook, orkut and twitter.
Let me assure all of you and particularly to DROs / Probationary Officers that we are
aware of your expectations and aspirations which have already been incorporated inour Charter of Demand (Please go through it once again). We agree with you that
salary of bank officers is nowhere near to the equivalent government officers and
some of the public sector officers
With social media playing an important role in any movement, the agitating
statements and messages by our members can give a reflection of divide within our
cadre. We respect the emotions of all of you and appreciate the energy levels of the
young comrades in particular. We need these energy levels to be preserved for an
appropriate time.
While all your suggestions are welcome, we exhort you to channelise the energy in
strengthening the organisation and camaraderie.

Minister Manmohan Singh inaugurated the first of seven branches of the bank in
Mumbai on November 19.

CHECK-OFF FACILITY: CONTEMPT CASE BY ALL INDIA STATE BANK
OFFICERS FEDERATION
10thOctober, 2013; as we stood in the Court Hall No.11 of the
Madras High Court, we had mixed feelings. Mr.Pratip Choudhuri, the former
Chairman was to make a personal appearance in the contempt proceedings
in the Check Off case filed by the Federation. And he appeared in person in
the presence of the Honble Justice.
2. However much we all tried to forget, still, images of the past came
flashing by. On the 4th
of October, 2012 when the Federation leaders methim amidst a huge gathering of MDs, DMDs and CGMs of all the circles, a
pre-arranged audience to demonstrate his arrogance and dictatorship, he
shouted and saidapologise and publish it in your website, make it public.
The intention was to embarrass and to insult. Today, standing in the Court
hall, when an unconditional apology was tendered in front of public, in front
of the press and in front of the advocates present, he stood pathetically,
vanquished. One could not help but comparing. The Law of Natural Justice
and the Law of Nature operates and averages out. He had utilized every
opportunity No,.. created opportunities to insult and put down people.He would call General Secretaries at branches and insult them, call their
controllers to insult leaders, fix cameras around leaders. HR Conclaves,
Video conferences, Webcasts in SBI Times were utilized to insult. His actions
of punishing leaders through downgrading and increment cuts, putting
unblemished leaders into 19(3) and hurting their innocent families,
withholding of gratuity overlooking the payment of gratuity act, a mandatory
regulation, erratic transfers to curtail Association activities and innumerable
such acts which stink of cruelty and inhuman behavior, flash by like images.
The day would begin with planning insults and end with further plans to
attack, demoralize, putdown and humiliate people. Ask them to express
remorse! I will dismiss all of them, I will meet you all in Supreme court
were some of the utterances, all filled with venom. The series of violations in
Transfer Policies and attacks on officers which have inconvenienced many
need not be repeated. Lady Officers, who are 59 years, who were sick, who
Justice at last.

had problems were also mercilessly transferred thousands of kilometers
away. The word compassion and mercy had lost its significance.
Indiscriminate transfers violating all agreed bilateral policies took place. It
was only fear and fear and fear all the way.
3. Such a person, arrogance personified, stood in front of the Honble
Justice apologetically. In fact all the Officers should have been happy, but
still, none rejoiced. We were all pained and sad. Not for the man,but for
the Bank. Because of his ill deeds and dis-obeyance of the Court Order, he
had put the mighty Bank into embarrassment in Public domain. The image of
the Bank was at stake. Washing dirty linen in public could have been
avoided, not if he loved the Bank like a mother as he used to proclaim. We
are writing this with pain and hurt feelings.
4. Ifhe had implemented the order of the Honble Court, it would
have been an honourable exit for both, the Bank and the Federation.
It would have been aWin-Win situation, which is always desirable.
If one puts down people, he should also be prepared to be put down.
None can presume to be greater than the Honble Court and justice.
We did not fire a bullet. He fired it against himself. Things were carried too
far.
5. The proceedings were over and at the end of it all, quietly he moved
away from the huge crowd of people, unnoticed, along with his galaxy of
advocates, one solicitor general from Supreme Court, another additionalsolicitor general for South Zone and a Senior advocate of Chennai and his
usual coterie, yes men, and advisors. All the money, power and influence
could not buy justice. Alas Nature has its own way of averaging out.
Justice may be delayed but not denied. Yes Justice was rendered. Truth
Triumphed.
6. For the information of members we are herewith narrating the
sequence of the events at the Madras High Court that unfolded on 10th
October 2013.
7. The Check-off facility which was in vogue since 1970s made available
to the Associations and the Unions in State Bank of India was unilaterally
withdrawn by the bank through a letter dated 17th September 2013, on
8/10/2019 Friend & Guide - Jan 2014 Issue
32/43
CBOA - Friend & Guide Jan 2014 Page 32
flimsy grounds and under the pretext of availability of alternate technology
channels. The Federation took up the issue through correspondence,
negotiations and persuasion. We had informed the bank that the whole issue
was sensitive and an emotional issue and had to be sorted out. But our
fervent appeals and pleas were not respected. But the bank decided the go
ahead and implement the unilateral withdrawal in the salary of September
2013. The Honble High court of Madras granted a stay on the impugned
order to the Chennai Circle Association on 23/09/2013. Thereafter on
24.09.2013 in response to the writ filed by the Federation, the Honble court
extended the stay to all the circles. On the 25/09/2013 when the bank tried
to move a modification application, and vacate the stay, the Honble judge
refused to vacate the stay. The stay order was operative. But the bank did
not implement the stay and chose to disburse the salary without the check
off to all the circles except the Chennai Circle, under the pretext of time
being too short to effect changes in the HRMS. They made a prayer to the
court that a minimum period of eight days were required to effect the
changes and reintroduce check off in HRMS. Well! this was a statement
made by the Bank in the Honble High Court of Chennai making a wrong
statement under oath/affidavit could amount to perjury! All the officers in
the bank and those working in HRMS and especially at Belapur know the
truth, that if required, this could have been affected in the salary of
25/09/2013. It was just a matter of few hours.
8. Thereafter a contempt case was filed. The Honble High Court had
summoned Mr.Pratip Chaudhuri the then Chairman and the CGM HR forPersonal appearance on 30/09/2013. But Mr Pratip Chaudhuri did not
appear on that day. The Honble High Court summoned him again for
personal appearance on 10thOct, 2013. Mr. Pratip Chaudhuri was therefore
present in the court in person. He was asked to be identified. The bank
then tendered an unconditional apology. The Senior Counsel for the bank
assured the Honble judge that the subscription for the month of September
2013 would be paid before 15/10/2013 by debit to the suspense account
and credited to the respective circle Associations.
9. M/s Vaighai , Senior Advocate Chennai High Court who argued the
case for the Federation had presented a water tight case. In the affidavit
filed by the Federation, the entire technical intricacies of the working of the
HRMS, the sequence of steps involved in implementing/non implementing

33/43
CBOA - Friend & Guide Jan 2014 Page 33
the check-off, the logic on how the check off could have been implemented
in a few hours and the efforts of the federation to sort out the issue amicably
were highlighted. It was argued by the advocate for the federation that Mr.
Pratip Chaudhuri cannot now represent the bank and hence has to file an
affidavit in his personal capacity which has been accepted by the banks
counsel in the presence of the Honble judge.
10. Com.B.K.Awasthi, President-AISBOF, Com.Y.Sudarshan, the General
Secretary of the Federation, Com. Thomas Franco Rajendra Dev, General
Secretary of the Chennai Circle Association along with a number of officers
of Chennai Circle were present.
11. We take this opportunity to thank all the well wishers and all the
comrades from all over the country who stood by the federation and
extended moral support. We also thank Com. Thomas Franco Rajendra Dev
and his team of comrades from Chennai Circle who helped in gathering
material and putting the issues in proper perspective before the advocate.
We express our thanks to M/S Vaighai and team for the legal support
rendered and the excellent and logical manner in which the case was put up.
12. Comrades, Now the situation is changing.
The undersigned along with the President Shri.B.K.Awasthi and the
Jt.General Secretary Shri.Ramkumar Sabhapathi had an occasion to visit
Mumbai and greet the Chairperson Mrs.Arundathi Bhattacharya. The meeting
which lasted for around twenty minutes was very cordial and positive. It wasdecided that we should remove all the irritants and make a new beginning.
The 18thfloor of the corporate center was, for once , filled with fresh air , rid
of the suffocation and nausea of tyranny . Thereafter, we met the DMD &
CDO Shri.B.V.Chaubal, the CGM(HR) Shri.Ranjit Goswami and the DGM (IR)
Shri.Raghav, and AGM (IR), Shri.Indranil Bhanja and decided to meet again
shortly to sort out all the unresolved issues and move forward.
13. We are sure that under the leadership of the new chairperson
Mrs Arundhati Bhattacharya who has taken over the reins very recently, allsuch irritants will be removed so that the bank, the officers and the
federation can work together in an atmosphere of cordial Industrial relations
and channelize all the energy into productive channels. We are all aware of
the challenges that the Bank is facing in the current global and national

economic scenario. Therefore we appeal to all our officer comrades to rise
up to the occasion and contribute whole heartedly in taking the bank to
greater heights.
14. Today the Bank has very sportingly put up the news paper clip of
Business standard on the Check-Off issue in the SBI Times. Also all the
derogatory and negative upload has been removed. Comrades, this is a
change in approach and a very positive one.
15. We all hope that this will pave way for a better understanding of each
other. We appeal to the Management that we should begin with a clean slate
in an atmosphere of mutual Trust and team spirit.
16. Let us all join together to pledge our support to all progressive and
positive endeavours of the new chairperson and work like a family that State
Bank is known for since ages and continue to remain partners in progress.
With greetings,
Signed by General Secretary, AISBOF

A jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at Microsoft.
The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.
"You are employed." He said." Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the
application to fill in, as well as date when you may start."
The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email."
I'm sorry", said the HR manager, "If you don't have an email, that means you do not
exist and who doesn't exist, cannot have the job."
The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in hispocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10 Kg tomato crate. He
then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded
to double his capital. He repeated the Operation three times, and returned home with
$60. The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go every day
earlier, and return late Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day.
Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck and then he had his own fleet of delivery
vehicles. 5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US.
He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.
He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation
was concluded, the broker asked him his email. The man replied, "I don't have an
email". The broker answered curiously, "You don't have an email, and yet have
succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had
an email?!!"
The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"
Moral of the story:
M1 - Internet is not the solution to your life.
M2 - If you don't have internet, and work hard, you can be a millionaire.
M3 - If you received this message, you are closer to being an office boy, than a
millionaire.

NO MORE COCKROACHES
Just visit any pharmacy or shop get Boric Powder
Mix it with sugar make it dough
Make it round balls of it
Keep these round balls below the kitchen sink, corners of the kitchen wherever
it is infested
You cannot believe it. In 24-hours they vanish. It seems they hate the smell of
this combination chemical
Do this once in a year. Your house will never be visited by cockroaches
TWO DIFFICULT THINGS TO ACHIEVE
1.To plant your ideas in someone else's head.
2.To put someone else's money in your own pocket.
The one who succeeds in the first one is called a TEACHER.
And the second is called a BUSINESSMAN.
The one who succeeds in both is called a WIFE
The one who fails in both is called a HUSBAND!!!
