2 | Joy KumariChander (1978) | 14.05.1955 | 31.05.2015 | |
3 | Najib Shah (1979) | 11.03.1957 | 31.03.2017 | 01.05.2014 |
4 | Ashok K. Kaushal (1979) | 20.09.1955 | 30.09.2015 | 01.06.2014 |
5 | V.S. Krishnan (1979) | 29.11.1955 | 30.11.2015 | 04.11.2014 |
6 | Neerja Shah (1979) | 09.09.1956 | 30.09.2016 | 01.12.2014 |
7 | Vanaja N. Sarna (1980) | 22.06.1958 | 30.06.2018 | 01.03.2015 |
These five vacancies were already existing and one more vacancy arises this month end when Ms. Joy Kumari Chander retires. The Chairman will retire next month and that is another vacancy. As can be seen from the table above, the first vacancy occurred on 1.5.2014 and if they had filled up the vacancies as they occurred, Mr. Najib Shah would have become a Member of the Board in May 2014 and Mr. Ashok Kaushal would have followed him in June. They lost one year as Board Members. In fact their batch mate Mr.Shashi Bhushan Singh became a Board Member more than a year ago.
This time around, they seem to have followed seniority strictly. Only one officer has been overlooked. Out of the just promoted Members, one will have a service of four months and another six months.
