Dear Sir,

 
            We are shocked to learn that you are deciding to hold 4 conventions of Chairman’s Club Member for M.Y. 2013-2014 instead of 3 conventions earlier. You are also deciding to continue old practice of holding conventions in the home zone which was changed last year in M.Y. 2012-2013 that agents of one zone have gone to other zone, which had resulted in the good attendance after a decade.

           Holding convention in the home zone was agreed by us only for a year when mediclaim for club members was introduced, but LIC continued to do the same till last year. This has affected the growth of club members considerably.

            Besides, the option for deciding the attendance for attending club convention or opting for Training or availing LTC is asked in advance. In absence of place of convention and its date, how it is possible for agents to decide whether he should attend the convention or opt for other benefits. We have been objecting for several years that this practice was wrong because he is always unaware about the date and venue to enable him to take appropriate decision.

            Splitting the convention into 4 and also in the home zone will further not only retard the prospect of developing professional agency force in the country, but it will also definitely damage the attendance and regionalism will be encouraged by such decision.

            During the Consultative Forum Meeting on 26-07-2014 we were not apprised of your thinking to divide the Club Convention into 4. We were kept in dark. You are doing this suddenly and silently making as a fait accompli without any norm of democratic practice in your action. It appears you want to divide the Chairman’s Club Members and thereby destroying the harmony built between agents and management.

 

 

            Every year LIC sends its officers to foreign countries to attend various seminars and this year MDRT meet has been held at Canada at LIC expenses. They must have felt that how the thousands of agents from all parts of the world including India meet together and learn from each others’ experience. We thought after their return they will submit the report about what they experience in such a mega meet and impress upon the corporation to arrange the convention in the manner it is arranged there. Unfortunately their experience in the MDRT meet is, not implemented in our convention.

            We hope you will consider our view point and drop the idea of splitting the CM club convention into 4 and also in the home zone and continue the decision taken for the M.Y. 2012-2013, which will not only bring us nearer, but make us more committed.

            Assuring our best cooperation at all times.

            Thanking you

            Yours faithfully 

            (H. M. JAIN)
