We all are abreast about the severe and widespread passenger disruption caused by recent mass cancellation of @IndiGo6E flights. It implies a failure rooted in operational and managerial shortcomings and provides a powerful, real-time warning about the risks of over-reliance on concentrated private power in essential services.

When a dominant private player, even in compliance-related areas, suffers a systemic failure, the resulting crisis exposes a national vulnerability. This demonstrates that profit orientation in vitally important sectors often overshadows public service viz a viz national interest.

On similar backdrop, the implications for the banking sector are direct and critical. Just as a private airline's internal lapse can paralyze nationwide travel, the complete handover of the financial system to profit-driven entities through mass privatization poses a grave risk to economic stability and social equity. This is why Public Sector Banks (PSBs) are indispensable.

Unlike private entities, PSBs operate with an explicit mandate for social responsibility and national development, ensuring that they are answerable and accountable to nation.

The Indigo episode is a stark reminder that there is urgent need to vigorously protect and strengthen our Public Sector Banks being indispensable pillars for safeguarding the economic welfare of the common citizen and ensuring protection of the nation’s interest.

[Nilesh Pawar @nilesh_pawar15]

On this momentous occasion of the 56th #BankNationalisationDay , I extend my warm wishes to all current and former employees of Public Sector Banks. This day is a proud reminder of our shared legacy and the transformative role we have played in shaping the socio-economic fabric of our nation.

*The decision to nationalise banks in 1969 was not merely a policy shift—it was a bold step towards inclusive growth, financial empowerment, and equitable development.* Over the past five decades, public sector banks have remained at the forefront of national progress—be it rural credit, priority sector lending, or supporting the vulnerable during crises.

*Equally important is the unwavering role of trade unions in defending and strengthening the vision of nationalisation*. Time and again, it is our collective voice and united action that have shielded public banking from dilution, defended workers' rights, and resisted attempts to privatise what rightfully belongs to the people.

In today’s environment, where questions are raised, and narratives are spun around efficiency and profitability, *let us not forget the foundational purpose of nationalised banks—to serve, to empower, and to uplift. Public Sector Banks have delivered not just profits but purpose*. And that is a legacy worth preserving.

Let us rededicate ourselves to protecting this legacy—with unity, resilience, and commitment to the greater public good.

In solidarity,
Nilesh Pawar
General Secretary

Leadership that truly cares! @Nilesh_pawar15 and FBOIOA stand strong with #FBOIOA_Sahayya. Officers affected by tax deductions can now avail ₹50,000 interest-free assistance. No officer left behind!

🏦 Where is our safe workplace? Where is our dignity?

The Prime Minister himself acknowledged bankers’ contribution to the nation—so why are we still subjected to humiliation, harassment & toxic work culture?

🚨 Bankers deserve respect, not intimidation in review meetings.
🚨 We demand a safe, harassment-free workplace—our dignity is non-negotiable!

A system that depends on bankers' dedication must protect their well-being, not exploit them. Enough is enough!

We oppose micromanagement! DFS interference in PSBs harms employees’ rights and undermines bipartite discussions.

Banking is not just a profession—it is a constitutional commitment to financial stability & national growth. Yet, those who ensure economic resilience face endless workweeks, shrinking manpower & policy paralysis that prioritizes numbers over human dignity.

Why should those managing trillions in public funds be denied the very rights enshrined for employees?

📢 The demand is simple: Fair policies, dignified working conditions & security from Assaults, arbitrary performance pressures. A system that thrives on the dedication of its officers must protect their well-being.

⚖️ Justice for bankers is justice for economic integrity. The voice of the banking community shouldn't be ignored.

Adequate recruitment? Banks run on skeleton staff while officers do the work of five.

5-day banking: The world moves forward, but PSB officers still work like it’s the 1980s. Banking professionals or bonded labor?

Residual issues with IBA: Better policies take years to be negotiated/implemented, but new policies against officers come overnight.
