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.

We are not robots.
We are not machines.
We are not AI tools.
We are bankers with families waiting at home, children who need us, and lives beyond late-night reviews and relentless targets.

Five-Day Banking is not a luxury.

It is dignity. It is justice. It is overdue.

After 30 months of a broken promise, we stand together.

Strike 28–30 September.

No fear. No retreat.

Conciliation meetings happened. What did not happen is a firm commitment on an already-signed settlement.

Our salaries get deducted for the strike days, Strikes are the last option for us after repeated delay from @DFS_India and @FinMinIndia , no banker wants their salary to be deducted.

We want uninterrupted service too, that is why we agreed upon extended working hours on remaining weekdays.

Madam, @nsitharaman Kindly honour the 2024 agreement entered with #UFBU through @ChairmanIba and set a date for notifying 5 Days Banking.

Dialogue without a deadline is not resolution. #5DayBanking #BankStrike

@ramshankarsingh @PMOIndia @narendramodi @aiboc_in @nilesh_pawar15 @AshishTekale_ @Ankyghate @ManishkBarnwal9 @MNInWords Bankers are told that customer service should be better. It should definitely be. But the work and life balance of those who stand behind better customer service should be discussed equally seriously. #5DayBankingNow

[बंजारा कवि @ramshankarsingh]

@PMOIndia @narendramodi जी

बैंकर्स से कहा जाता है कि customer service बेहतर होनी चाहिए। बिल्कुल होनी चाहिए। लेकिन बेहतर customer service के पीछे खड़े लोगों के काम और जीवन के संतुलन पर भी उतनी ही गंभीरता से बात होनी चाहिए।

Five-day banking does not mean five-day service for every customer need. Digital channels remain available beyond branches. The proposal concerns branch working days and employee schedules. #5DayBankingNow #FBOIOA @nilesh_pawar15 @aiboc_in @DFS_India @PMOIndia @FinMinIndia

Bank employees have repeatedly raised the same demand. IBA and UFBU reached an understanding, yet implementation remains pending. How long should workers wait for an agreed issue? #5DayBankingNow #FBOIOA @nilesh_pawar15 @aiboc_in @DFS_India @PMOIndia @FinMinIndia @nsitharamanoffc

You ask bankers to deliver more, serve more and carry greater responsibility. Then why deny them a 5-day banking week?

Better working conditions support healthier employees, stronger families and sustainable productivity.

Bankers serve India. India’s bankers deserve a fair work-life balance.

Our Demand is just, delay is Not.Implement #5DayBankingNow @PMOIndia #FBOIOA

Customers deserve efficient banking. Employees deserve sustainable working conditions. Five-Day Banking seeks to balance both. The policy decision should no longer remain unresolved. #5DayBankingNow #FBOIOA @nilesh_pawar15 @aiboc_in @DFS_India @PMOIndia @FinMinIndia
