Not one of those heads expressed condolences when an employee died or committed suicide due to workplace pressure. But the moment government gave a whip, they all started singing the same tune. For government, it’s an all-out push to contain the fallout from #BankStrike
Sometimes I feel that the government itself wants bankers to go on strike because had they announced kept in abeyance of PLI for senior executives at CLC meeting on 8 sep instead of announcing that after meeting with NOBO and NOBW under BMS leadership then 11 sep strike may not have happened because UFBU could have claimed partial victory and may have deferred the strike .
Similarly instead of holding meetings with banks chief on Monday and series of threatening communication that followed from DFS and Banks HO government could have waited for today's conciliation meeting today and then held this meeting on Wednesday and then issued all those communications on Wednesday still having 2 clear days to do all preparations to make bankers strike fail .
And I fail to understand what the government will gain by forcing bankers to go on strike for a demand which the government agreed 30 months back but is now dithering to implement for silly reasons .
Today there will be a conciliation meeting between UFBU and IBA at CLC delhi dwarka office .but in backdrop of yesterday DFS secretary meeting with Chief of public sector banks and other financial institutions chief and series of hostle communications that emanated from DFS and various PSB today 's talk is only a formality and strike is on now .no ufbu leader who will participate in today's meeting can afford to withdraw strike call only because now only army is left to be deployed to make our strike fail by this arrogant government.
So now over to you all comrades to make this strike a resounding success by 100 pc peaceful and self driven participation in this coming 3 days strike .
✅ Unions of State
✅ Cabinet Decision
✅ Committee approved
❌ Never Individual Based
Our Democracy don't push 'Individual' but Collective accountability framework, if PSBs deviate here, it's like loosing the soul of democracy.

Govt appealing Clerks , Scale 1 - 3 Officers to not participate in Strike, But never thought once about them while distributing 10 times more PLI to their Bosses. Irony 🤓
Today around 5 PM I was in the zonal and circle office patna .
Both offices are on the same floor and must have more than 100 officers at 5.45 I noticed that more than half of the officers were working very sincerely so I reminded them about ongoing agitation for 5 days banking week for which officers are directed by ufbu leadership to leave office by 5.30 PM .
In the next half an hour I was able to send home around 90 pc officers to home but 10 pc were still in the office when I left that office after having a meeting with ZM around 7 PM .
Aise kaise ham yah difficult ladai jeet payenge against this anti bankers central government.
Many of us are neither professional in our duty nor in agitation.
On a train to Delhi from Patna where on Sunday i have to attend a conference of the workmen union of pnb in the constitution club of India.
On 5 days banking week every section of management right from MD & CEO to regional head all are sympathetic to our strike because they all want 5 days banking week and still we are not able to follow ufbu call to leave office by 5.30 PM .
Then imagine our courage to leave office on time when union fight against bank management wrongdoings.
We are too scared and weak to fight real battle .
