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.

#5DayBankingNow
#WATCH | Patna, Bihar | Indian National Bank Officers Congress President Ranjeet Kumar Chatterjee says, “The strike taking place across India today is an all-India strike called by the United Forum of Bank Unions, comprising seven unions and involving 8 lakh employees nationwide. We have two primary demands: first, the implementation of a five-day banking week, a matter the government has been stalling on for a long time; and second, the issue of the Performance-Linked Incentive (PLI). The government implemented this PLI unilaterally, and it is highly discriminatory and fraught with disparities… Regarding the five-day banking week, there is blatant bias. All operate on a five-day schedule, while public sector banks are treated differently… Our demand is simply that banks remain closed every Saturday.”
When the world is moving to a 4-day week, and banking is already 24x7 in the digital era, bankers asking for a 5-day week isn’t a luxury. It’s justice.
IBA has agreed. The understanding is signed.
Now the Government must honour its commitment – no more excuses, #5DayBankingNow
