It is not necessary that the Bank should accede to your request. Certainly, you have the option to resign or to seek voluntary retirement, if eligible.

Unions/Associations who are collecting subscripttttions from you can help in sorting out the matter.

What can not be cured must be endured. Instead of hating the new assignment try to love it now.

How all other PSU Officers are functioning when such are the working conditions ? Every post has it's merits and demerits. All these problems crop initially in any new assignment, believe me within one year, you can certainly love the job. Adept to such changes and tune your mind set, every thing goes on well. When others can work, why can not you ?

The present set of functioning as officer in Bank is 100% more convenient now, than it was previously with manual maintenance of ledgers, balancing, tallying of day book, submission of accounts etc.,

Better resign, if promotional job does not suit you any more and request for reversion is not acceded by the management.

You have got every right to get back to your earlier post. As you have already sent a letter regarding this matter, better to move the High Court with all the correspondence. If the situation is unbearable, better to take leave some time and in the meantime see, how the case turns up. No need to resign at this stage. Resignation option is always available to youl.

Sorry to differ with the views of the representative of Samarpan. In Government departments and PSUs, once an employee accepts promotion, he loses the right to revert back to his earlier post. All depends upon the discretion of the competent authority. So far as his right is concerned, he was free to exercise his right to decline promotion well before his selection for the higher post, but not after his selection and that too after acceptance of promotion.

In such situation, moving HC may prove costly for him moneywise as well as in earning the wrath of his superior authorities, besides failure in his legal venture.

If it is not his academic query, but a real problem, it would be better for him to request the competent authority on merits, but not merely on the plea of unsuitable working conditions. He can be benefited by administrative approach, but not by legal approach.

Apparently, he is not being made to work in different conditions than for others in the bank.
