At Punjab National Bank in New Delhi, a startling instance has surfaced. According to accounts, a branch manager was suspended for speaking out against the higher authority's decision to deny leave.
The branch manager has submitted one day leave which was declined by the higher authority. The branch manager put this on his WhatsApp status – he wrote “Single Day Casual Leave is denied by Competent Authority. Why this kolaveri di?”
To his astonishment, however, the bank administration promptly sent him an explanation letter. The branch manager allegedly broke the bank's social media policy, according to the management. According to the letter, bank workers should refrain from criticizing the bank's management and from participating in any social media groups that do so. The branch manager has five days to provide an explanation.
The branch manager responded that since the content was not offensive or defamatory and didn't include any private information, he hadn't broken the bank's social media policy. It was merely a private statement of concern about issues pertaining to corporate openness and employee welfare. He asserted that every Indian citizen has the inherent right to constructive criticism and peaceful expression.The branch manager has now being suspended and the case is going on.
