Letters: Power abuse

Shyamal Majumdar’s column “Time for self-regulation?” (Human Factor, August 31) was well written. There are also a number of such CMDs and executive directors in banks who believe they deserve to be in top positions and look down on their colleagues. It isn’t unusual to hear them pass sarcastic and unacceptable remarks at functionaries at meetings. The behaviour of these top executives is only encouraged by yes-men who aim to get coveted transfers, including postings abroad. Unfortunately, the system has tolerated and supported such officials.
