I was employed in one of the co-op. bank in Pune as an officer.In 1997 bank had taken from us a security deposit upto the date of retirement which was 30/9/2011, means upto to the age of 58.After that bank had supplied the list to each branch regarding the date of each employee.In that list I saw my retirement date as 30/9/2011For officers the retirement age was 58.The bank did not give information about retirement date to each employee.,but had kept the security deposit and retirement record with itself.
In 2003 bank suddenly made change in retriement date of officers ,it made it 55 ,and compelled us to fulfil our loans before 3 years [As housing lons were sanctioed to us at the age of 58].We some officers decided to lodge a writ petition in high court, and have launched it but the advocate is delaying to take 2nd circulation.In the meantime I have got some idea to demad the record of retirement of myself from the bank .So I demanded the bank to give me my previous record of retirement at the time of taking security deposit.When my letter was received by the bank , it answered me after one month that no such information is availlabel with them.Now my question is how bank can answer like this.There must be some record keeping period stipulated by law to maintain office record of each employee.Can any one guide me about this?I had made a written complaint to central registrar regarding this matter.In short bank had retired us at the age of 55 instead of 58 and I want to collect the evidence that bank had informed us a date of retirement as per our age of 58.Please guide how bank can give such irresonsible answer? What steps should be taken by me ?
