Banks in Kerala saw a flash strike by officers on 12.06.2015. The provocation for the strike was the termination of the services of state president of All India Bank Officers' Confederation (AIBOC) by the management of the bank in which he was working as a culmination of the disciplinary proceedings against him which was started almost an year ago. The flash strike raises some pertinent questions.
Can the officers of public sector bank resort to such flash strikes without serving proper notice on the managements?
Is it correct for the organisation to go on strike to protest against disciplinary action taken against its president, when other options like appeal, challenge in the court etc are available?
How is the president of the organisation above other ordinary members in the matter of disciplinary proceedings?
In the past, many officers have been removed from service by various Banks for the misdeeds committed by them. Why the association or Confederation did not resort to any organisational activity, leave alone going on a strike , on these occasions?
Is an organisational action, against disciplinary action taken against any member, warranted or justifiable? Is it the role of the organisation to protect its members from any disciplinary action taken by the managements concerned against any misdeeds/ offences committed by the members part from defending the member in the enquiry conducted under the proceedings?
Will the leaders of the confederation explain these to its members as well as the general public?
