Dear Comrades,
The fight for Five-Day Banking must not be seen merely as a struggle for implementation of an agreement that has remained pending for more than 30 months. This is a fight for our existence, our dignity, our families and our fundamental right to a humane working life.
Public Sector Bank employees serve far more customers than our private-sector counterparts. Even with private banks accounting for a substantial share of the banking market, it is overwhelmingly the Public Sector Banks and their employees who carry the burden of Government-sponsored schemes, financial inclusion, social-sector banking and the last-mile delivery of public policy.
We work for institutions owned by the people and for a Government that expects us to reach every citizen. We have never shied away from that responsibility. But those who expect us to serve the nation must also recognise one simple truth:
We are not robots. We are not machines. We are not AI tools. We are human beings.
We have families waiting for us, children who need our time, parents who need our care, and lives beyond targets, reviews, late-night meetings and relentless workplace pressure.
We are not asking for privilege. We are asking for dignity, balance and justice.
The growing culture of excessive working hours, constant pressure and an increasingly toxic work environment cannot become the new normal. Five-Day Banking is one important step towards restoring humanity to our workplaces.
Save the banker. Save the banking family. Respect the commitment already made.
Five-Day Banking is not a luxury.
It is not an unreasonable demand.
It is a just demand whose time has come.
Let us stand together, for ourselves, for our families and for the generations of bankers who will come after us.
Five-Day Banking is For Dignity. For Family. For a Humane Workplace.
March ahead with courage and unity for the three-day strike from 28th to 30th September and make it a resounding success. No fear, no threat and no intimidation can weaken our collective resolve. Officers and employees stand together , we are all strikers in this historic struggle.

बैंक मुनाफे में चल रहे हैं लेकिन बैंक कर्मचारियों को 2दिन की छुट्टी देने में इनको मौत आने लगती है।
जबकि आप ख़ुद देखिए बैंक कर्मचारियों पर काम का कितना प्रेशर है।
अब वो हड़ताल नहीं करें तो क्या करें
I’m back on X. 🚀
And my first demand is simple:
5 DAYS BANKING.
Because bankers need a weekend too.
Not just a Sunday… and a Saturday spent thinking about Monday! 😂
🏦 Monday–Friday: Bank
❤️ Saturday–Sunday: Life

Back on X after a long break! 👋
And what better reason to return than a topic every banker & banker family is waiting for…
🏦 5 DAYS BANKING!
Monday to Friday banking,
Saturday–Sunday family time ❤️
Because bankers also deserve a weekend! 😄

Every 24x7 banking service has a banker behind it and a family waiting at home. We agreed to the 5-day week in March 2024 and accepted longer weekday hours. The regulator, the insurer and the Government all work 5 days.
Our demand is just. The delay is not.

Bankers keep India connected 24×7.
But behind every transaction, target and deadline is a human being, with a family, responsibilities and a life beyond the branch.
A 5-day week was agreed in March 2024, with bankers accepting longer working hours from Monday to Friday.
The demand is reasonable. The commitment is proven. The delay is difficult to justify.
Implement 5-Day Banking now.

Indian Bank asked employees to Call Customers on Holiday to convince them to Install new Mobile Banking App - Ind Smart, But customers reaction on calls will make you brust in laughter 😂
Bank must rethink on their strategy.
Thank you, Hon’ble Prime Minister, for your appreciation of PSU Banks. The employees and officers in public sector banks are dedicatedly serving the citizens of this country 24/7, despite facing staff shortages and numerous workplace challenges. The employee-to-customer ratio in private banks is significantly higher compared to public sector banks.
To secure better working conditions for public sector bankers, an agreement was reached between the IBA and Banking Unions and Associations on 8th March 2024 to introduce a ‘5-day work week’ in banks. We kindly request your esteemed office to intervene and officially declare a ‘5-day work week’ for the banking sector. This will help reduce stress and fatigue thereby improving the productivity of bank employees and enabling them to serve the fellow citizens with renewed enthusiasm.
If U visiting SBI & Branch Manager forcing U to Buy SBI Life Policy along with AC opening or Loan facility, then Complaint to RBI immediately.
BMs & staffs are under tremendous pressure to sell 3rd party Policy for new year party commission for Bosses, which is unethical.
