Today, it has emerged as a major player in the field of insurance despite keen competition from private sector agencies both within and outside India. The present stature of LIC is that it has been built up brick by brick by the toil and moil of its field workers. In fact, in its formative and nascent stages, it was the field worker who carried the message of life insurance to the width and breadth of this country. Today, about 14 lakh LIC field agents have brought strength and vitality to this organization. They should be recognized in the vital organic link between the people and LIC.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Unfortunately, the LIC has not recognized this in a situation of fierce competition from the MNCs. Besides, being an act of non-gratitude, the LIC is committing a strategic mistake by ignoring these erstwhile pillars of LIC.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 These agents are very much disturbed by the Informal Consultative Committee\u2019s circular dated 5th May, 2006. Their demands such as (1) introduction of senior agency system as suggested by the R.N. Malhotra Committee, (2) incentives for direct agents, (3) amendments to Agents Regulation Act, 1972, Sections 16 and 19, (4) pension and welfare fund, (5) increase in gratuity at par with regular employees, (6) appropriate remuneration, are genuine and basic needs.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Therefore, I urge upon the Ministry of Finance to acknowledge them duly by conferring all legitimate benefits and arrange for a tripartite meeting with these poor souls and give them a chance to present their case.
