Manage bank honestly

Can CMD like MVNair ensure long lasting good health of the bank with the help of bad General Managers? Can Mr. Nair portray attractive balance sheet for long without window dressing when his most of General Managers are corrupt, charge sheeted or facing CBI inquiry.

When General Managers are not of sound mind and spotless integrity, can they expect their juniors to be clean and loyal to bank? When executive holding top posts are not honest and loyal to the bank, honest and efficient junior officers in the field cannot dream of getting promotion and good posting.

This is a bank where promotions take place completely on the whims of Interviewer. Officers who do not toe the line of bosses are posted at critical places. Charge sheeted officers, General Managers, DGMs and AGMs in Mumbai or in any Metro are not transferred out of their home town. But officers belonging to other states who are not having any God father at Administrative offices are posted at such branches which were spoilt by flatter and corrupt officers and who left no stone unturned to keep boss happy through gifting of costly and precious items.

After all who can stop this unhealthy culture prevailing in a bank when person sitting at the helm of affairs are corrupt and shielded by God father in Banking Division in Delhi or RBI or Ministry of Finance. There are many Satyam like Raju in all banks. It is a matter of time when real exposure of these mischievous persons takes place. Yes it is true that by the time their exposure takes place career of many good persons will be spoilt, ruined and raped.

I have however no doubt that future generation will curse MVNair and blame his policy for the fate of bank, though MVNair as a man is very much effective, assertive and knowledgeable.

It is the time that our honourable CMD MVNair justifies the actions of various DGMs and GMs who transferred whimsically a lot of officers to other states on the excuse of non-performance. I especially mention the case of DGM Jharkhand who practically transferred all Non Orriyas to other states, some officers to Bangladesh Border i.e. to Tripura state, some to Gangtok, some others to West Bengal or UP or MP or Maharashtra. He satisfied his ego by disturbing the family life of officers who did not flatter him and who did not belong to his caste lobby.

Our beloved CMD should now see whether there is any improvement or further deterioration in the value of assets during last three years in those branches wherefrom Non Orriyas were transferred by Orriya DGM (surrounded by Orriya lobby) two years ago?

I do not want to enlighten the complicated matters which may violate bank’s secrecy policy. Management has every tools in its almirah to look into each account of big and old branches and ascertain whether so called non performers had improved the health of Bank’s asset or their successor or their predecessor had done better for the bank which resulted in their promotion and rejection of so called non performers in the same promotion process and their posting at the most remotest and the most critical branch.

If CMD hesitates to touch his corruption ridden General Managers AGM, DGM till their retirement, other competent authorities may be ordered to peep into the matter and try to precipitate the reality and truth of Banking administration.
