Dear Sir,

Annual Transfers 2013

Please refer to the para 7 of new transfer policy vide Circular no. NB/HRMD/PA/5298/ST-51/12-13 dated 19/03/2013 whereat it is clearly mentioned that officers can represent/put request to bank within 7 days of transfer list, however as per NABNET message dated 27/04/2013 it has been mentioned that ‘no representations are to be entertained’. We have come across a number of cases where at either the officers have not applied/requested earlier in anticipation of a favourable posting or the OICs have not recommended/forwarded the requests indicating that the same can be forwarded/recommended, if need be, after the transfers are finalized.

Keeping in view the above, we request that officers desirous of putting in a request, may be allowed to do so and their requests may be considered favourably.

Thanking you

Yours Sincerely,

(Dr D S Chauhan)

Dear Sir,

Annual Transfers 2013: Victimisation of NBOA Office-Bearers

Please refer to new transfer policy vide Circular no. NB/HRMD/PA/5298/ST-51/12-13 dated 19/03/2013 according to which the annual transfers 2013 have been affected to. In this connection we note with great anguish that the bank has chosen to use the annual transfer exercise as a tool to victimize and punish the office-bearers of NBOA. We have noted that in almost all the cases the office-bearers of NBOA have not been given even the fourth choice of postings and in a particular case the officer bearer concerned have been transferred out even though he has not completed the normal length of stay at the concerned centre.
