Grievance 2: Technical error with email submission
Due to some technical errors in my personal gmail account I switched my account to my daughter’s account, I was unaware that her email account is only to send and receive messages from school network only. I submit my nomination for the position of president but after the list was published I realized that mine is not in the list. Kindly review my request as I am up to eligibility criteria and eager to work passionately for the development of O&P profession.

Declair the objection and resolution with other candidates before election.
It’s system fault technical problem candidate is innocent
Grievance 3: Suggestion on experience calculation
My grievance or objection is not against anyone. It is my suggestion. As you have all the documents like graduation year and/or work place starting year, it should be calculated from there and be public. And experience doesn’t be counted from graduation but from their working in organization. e.g. 1 person graduation is 2018 and not working anywhere has no experience while same one work even private has around 8 years of experience.

Yes working experience anywhere even in private should also be included
Experience must countable after graduation.
Count experience from year of degree awarded specially in case of female where continues job is not possible after marriage and children
Objection 1: Candidate too junior for Information Secretary
Reservation by the complainant: Candidate is very junior for the post of information secretary.
Our society needs someone experienced who can properly guide both us and the upcoming juniors. I believe that although he was my class fellow, he has only recently joined the field, so he may not have enough practical exposure yet. In professional fields, practical experience matters a lot, and as far as I know, he has been working in the field for only around 7-8 months. That’s why I think, on a fair basis, we should choose the Information Secretary carefully, because information and guidance have a very powerful impact.

This is not a job application… We need a person with some knowledge of market and the issue arises after graduation.. it’s doesn’t required experience of well reputable organisation.. personal experience has some value in life
At least 4-5 year experience in the field is mandatory
Objection 2: Candidate under 10 years of experience
Reservation by the complainant: Candidate is under 10 years of experience.
I would like the committee to verify the Bachelor’s Degree of the nominee. As the session maybe 2012-2016, however the experience counts after the degree awarding date. If the nominee possesses a valid degree from 2016, I can still consider it as 10 years experience and I will not have any more objections, however if the nominee has less experience than required for the position, he must be disqualified. Thanks.
