Vice Chairman, Com R A Sharma President, Com. Partha Chanda, General Secretary
and Com. Alkesh Rajveer Deputy General Secretary.
We would like to inform you in brief upon the major areas of discussion as under:
At the outset Sri Rajesh Nagar, CGM welcomed the representatives of AIUCBEF and
wished a lively, positive discussion.
On behalf of Federation, the General Secretary while thanking the management for
calling this meeting, pointed out clearly the sorry state of affairs prevailing in the zones on
HR front. He said that the reason of listing more than 250 issues for discussion in this GR is
because of non-implementation of the agreed matters in State GR meetings. It hasbecome a regular feature that howsoever issues are settled and minutised in State level
GRs those are not implemented. He expressed our strong apprehension that a tacit move
may be on at the Zones to dilute the gravity and importance of the State level GR
machinery thereby turning the spirit of board approved IR policy a redundant one.
Top management should treat this trend seriously and if it is not addressed may lead to
massive grievances warranting a situation of discontentment and unrest.
Management noted this observation seriously and it was told that some Training
programmes will be initiated for Zonal Heads & their HR departments.
Then started the discussions.
