State government employees have faced severe difficulties as the crucial 'e-Service Book' update process across various departments was disrupted due to glitches in the WBIFMS portal.
Many employees have reported experiencing login failures, slow page loading, and the loss of their details due to server errors while attempting to complete updates to their service records.
Technical issues created confusion among workers, as they feared impending penalties, delays, or rejections due to their inability to submit updates.
Employees stated that repeatedly attempting to access the portal during the deadline wastes valuable time and causes immense mental stress.
Many staff members demanded an extension, reasoning that portal failures were beyond their control and should not adversely affect their records.
Labor unions and employee groups have urged officials to respond immediately to resolve this issue, provide immediate technical support, and restore the portal.
Updating the e-Service Book is considered mandatory because it impacts official employee data, career records, and all future administrative processes.
Workers have requested the government to ensure a stable portal - and to grant the necessary authorization for this - before enforcing strict deadlines for mandatory online service updates.
This issue has sparked intense frustration on social media, where employees shared their grievances and relevant screenshots, requesting flexibility regarding deadlines.
Employees are now fervently hoping that officials will extend the submission deadline and resolve the glitches in WBIFMS to prevent further inconvenience across the state.
