A very pertinent observation by @TamalBandyo ji. Transparency in promotions is not merely an HR ideal—it is central to morale, credibility, and institutional integrity. When processes lack clarity and uniformity, it inevitably impacts motivation and trust at all levels.

As stakeholders in the system, we strongly believe that well-defined, objective, and transparent promotion frameworks are essential for sustaining both performance and fairness in all PSBs.

This is an area that deserves serious, system-wide introspection and reform.

On behalf of @aiboc_ms1 and @BOIOAMNG, we place on record our heartfelt gratitude and deep appreciation to all members who participated wholeheartedly in the strike and joined the rally in huge, disciplined, and spirited numbers, making the Dharna at the historic Azad Maidan, Mumbai, truly impactful and memorable.

The roaring and resolute presence of BOIOA Mumbai–Goa Unit members was particularly inspiring.* It reflected the unity, conviction, and unwavering solidarity of our cadre towards the common cause of 5 Days Banking, a commitment that has long remained pending despite repeated assurances.

@nilesh_pawar15 @fboioa_india @rupamsmail @TamalBandyo @abplive @ZeeNews @PTI_News @aajtak 5-day work week isn’t a luxury.
IT, corporates, even many private financial institutions already have it.
Banks handle national financial stability, not casual desk jobs — burnout here has real consequences.

Reduced burnout among bank employees translates to stronger financial services. A 5-day week is a win-win for everyone! #5DaysWeekForBankers #AIBEA https://t.co/azF0ilWpdo

Today's nationwide strike in support of #5DaysWorkWeek is a huge success. In Mumbai,Bankers thronged Aazad Maidan seeking resolution to long pending demand where @aiboc_in Sr Vice President @nilesh_pawar15 raised voice of lakhs of agitated bankers alongside other leaders.

[All India Bank Officers' Confederation (AIBOC) @aiboc_in]

Policy makers talk about productivity while forcing burnout on bank employees. Hypocrisy won’t run a modern economy. Act with responsibility. Approve the 5-day banking week.

🌍 World moving to 4-Day Week
🏦 Banking already 24×7 (digital)
But when bankers ask for 5 days, suddenly it’s called “luxury”?
✔️ IBA agreed
✔️ Settlement signed
Now the ball is with the Government —
Honour your own commitment.
No excuses. No delays.
Respect the Settlement. Deliver it.

By adopting a 5-day banking week, India can align with global practices, making it easier for international businesses to engage with us. #5DayBankingNow https://t.co/SUiIvYAVlJ

[Nilesh Pawar @nilesh_pawar15]

Today's conciliation meeting at the Office of Chief Labour Commissioner, Delhi, has concluded. Unfortunately, no concrete developments were made regarding the implementation of Five Days Banking, and hence, no consensus could be arrived at.

Let's march ahead united and determined to make the Nationwide Strike on 27th January 2026 a grand success!

[Nilesh Pawar @nilesh_pawar15]

India’s bankers demand dignity.Implement 5-Day Banking now.Productivity improves, service quality strengthens, and work–life balance becomes sustainable—burnout does not build nations. In modern economies, governments measure outcomes, not exhausted hours.
It’s time for real reform, not press releases.

[Rupam Roy @rupamsmail]

Govt/DFS: enough of “under consideration”. Honour the 8-3-2024 Settlement on #5DayBanking. Bankers are battling understaffing, extreme pressure & mental stress, yet face discrimination vs RBI/LIC/GIC. We will mobilise until justice is delivered. #5DayBankingNow

[Pramod Shinde @Pramod_Shinde09]

➡️ There is NO reduction in weekly working hours.
➡️ Unions have formally agreed to compensate Saturdays with +40 minutes per day.

The “loss of service” argument is factually incorrect.

This reform improves efficiency, not laziness.
