Members may recall that as a result of our agitation that culminated into   a massive DHARNA before HEAD OFFICE , on 3 rd March, the Management initiated certain effective steps in response to our various demands . Certain matters like Compassionate appointments, Voluntary retirement requests , payment of over time for  de-monetisation period, release of mile stone awards pending since 2014, etc were already considered and benefits reached  all concerned.



Our prime demand and concern over the Managemnt's disinclination to convene the meeting of Apex level performance review committee for more than a year too  was addressed and the meeting had taken place on 28 th March,2017.

There were informal discussions on certain other matters which are related to Policy matters. Though the managemnt desired a formal meeting of the Policy committe to resolve those issues much earlier , the meeting could not take place due to pre-occupation on "Turn around plan" and MOU meetings. Now, at the invitation of   Management,  representatives of our  Federation met the Management on 21st April  and held   discussions on remaining  issues concerning policies. Our Federation was represented by Com. K..P. Antani , Com. Walia, Vice president, Com. Partha Chanda Secretary, Com. Sanath Gosh , Com. Magesh Bagaria both joint secretaries , Com. Ravi Joshi WC member from Nagpur, besides the undersigned. The CEO & MD, both the Executive Directors,  GM HRM , AGM PSD and few officials from HRM participated from the managemnt side. The meeting was very cordial and ended in a positive note. We give under the response of the managemnt to various issues placed before them.
