This
Saturday 24th, Hyderabad APBRF (Andhra Pradesh Bank Retirees Federation)
EC Meeting was abuzz with high-fly discussion on Formation of two BRFs
i.e.., Telangana Bank Retirees Federation and AP Bank Retirees
Federation in view of formation of two States.
Andhra Bank
with lead and followers of PNB, Syndicate Bank, Canara Bank etc.,
argued strongly in favour of formation of two entities to serve members
at best in view of increasing membership and formation of new zones
bank-wise for last few years. Indian Bank, IOB etc who have lesser
number of membership in combined States comparing to other group banks
vehemently opposed under plea of unity and no such bifurcation in live
organisations.
Finally, the
majority opinion tilted in favour of bifurcation and the Committee
recommended to adopt the resolution in ensuing General Body to be held
in March 2017.
Only solace
is that the individual bank retiree organisations can decide themselves
reg. bifurcation and can be affiliated to either of the two newly
forming entities.
On enquiring
with top brass of present APBRF as to whether modalities worked out on
formation of new entities and where the new APBRF will be
head-quartered, it was informed no such deliberations initiated and will
be done in due course before coming GB.
