Don't thinkโwhy did I have to give one day,
Think about who the fight is with, sacrifices will have to be made! ๐ฅ
If they show force, we'll show unity,
If they are stubborn, we'll become super stubborn! โ
We'll fight, we'll endure, we'll claim our rights!

I have been active on Twitter/X for the last 4โ5 years, and for the first time, I am seeing DFS and the Ministry of Finance under such pressure on an issue like this.
Keep going, colleagues. Donโt be afraid. Donโt bow down.
If we want 5-Day Banking, then we want 5-Day Banking.

I've been active on Social Media for the past 10 years. For the very 1st time, I'm seeing DFS & Finance Ministry & Banks under such pressure on an issue.
Keep going, colleagues. Donโt be afraid. Donโt bow down.
We want the approved 5-Day Banking.
Stay strong. Stay united. โ
They cannot find one Saturday to close.
They found a Sunday to open.
5-day banking: โunder consideration.โ
Sunday duty: approved in 24 hours.
That is not policy. That is panic with a letterhead.
@RBI@DFS_India@nsitharaman
Sucheta Maโam, please consider this perspective as well:
The Central Government has followed a 5-day working week since 1985, almost from the time you began your distinguished journalism career in 1984.
Central & many State Government offices, NABARD, SEBI, stock exchanges and several other service-oriented institutions already function on a 5-day week. Banking employees are only seeking the same reasonable work-life balance.
Customer convenience need not suffer. Even today, some banks operate Sunday-working branches with staggered weekly offs. The same principle can easily provide selected Saturday-working branches, with their staff getting an alternative weekly off, say on Monday. Solutions for genuine customer requirements are entirely possible.
More importantly, banking today is available 24ร7 through ATMs, UPI, mobile banking, internet banking, NEFT/RTGS and other digital channels. But behind this round-the-clock banking are human beings who increasingly find there is virtually no disconnect from work. Bank employees are facing growing workloads, constant connectivity and burnout. A proper weekend is not merely about an additional holiday, it is about mental well-being and returning to work more productive and efficient.
Bankers ensure 24ร7 banking for the country. They too deserve a genuine weekend, like employees of other major institutions.
Bankers keep India connected 24ร7.
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.

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.

With the IBA's 5-day banking approval still pending, bank staff continue to face an unfair work schedule that must be changed! #5DayBankingNow#AIBOC@PMOIndia

Encouraging diverse reduction measures emerges when every toil is respected; IBA knows, so will each sector enlist this approach. #5DayWeekandFairPLI#AIBOC@PMOIndia
Indiaโs Bank employees seek two things rooted in fairness and dignity at work.
#5DayWeekandFairPLI
The demand for a 5 Day Work Week in banks is not new. It already stands agreed upon in the Bipartite Settlement of March 2024. What remains is its long-pending implementation.
At the same time, the unilateral and discriminatory PLI system must be abolished and replaced with a fair, transparent and inclusive framework for all employees, recognising the collective effort behind every institutionโs performance.
Hardworking bank employees are not asking for privilege. They are asking for implementation of an agreement and equality in reward.
A motivated banking workforce strengthens Indian banking and the nation.

Public sector banks run government schemes, DBT, pensions, MSME credit & financial inclusion.
This doesnโt happen on โholidays.โ
5-Day Banking recognises the real workload of bankers.

5-Day Banking isnโt about fewer hours.
Itโs about better hours.
Same workload. Same responsibility.
A humane scheduleโalready followed by RBI & global banks.
