न झुकेंगे, न रुकेंगे,
अपने हक़ के लिए लड़ेंगे।
आवाज़ हमारी एक रहे,
तो हर मुश्किल पार करेंगे। ✊

बारिश की बूंदें हमारे हौसले को नहीं रोक सकीं।

आज बारिश की विपरीत परिस्थितियों के बावजूद जिस जोश, एकता और समर्पण के साथ सभी साथियों ने Strike में अपनी उपस्थिति दर्ज कराई, वह हमारी एकजुटता और संगठन में अटूट विश्वास का प्रतीक है।

यही जज़्बा हमारी ताकत है,
यही एकता हमारी पहचान है। ✊

संघर्ष जारी रहेगा…
जीत हमारी होगी! 🔥

A sea of thousands of bank officers and employees converged at historic Aazad Maidan, Mumbai, transforming the strike into a powerful expression of unity, determination and collective resolve.

I had the privilege of leading this massive gathering of agitated bank officers and addressing the inspired bankers. The energy, enthusiasm and determination displayed by each one of them made one thing absolutely clear — the banking fraternity stands united and will not retreat!

I was joined by Dilip Saha ji, Executive Vice Chairman, @aiboc_in , Anton Saldanha ji, President, @BOIOAMNG , along with several senior AIBOC leaders and other comrades who stood shoulder to shoulder with the striking bankers.

Our struggle is centred around issues that directly affect the dignity, rights and future of the banking fraternity which includes implementation of Five-Day Banking, Fair and equitable PLI, Respect for bilateralism etc. *As such collective bargaining viz a viz negotiated settlements must be honoured and industrial relations must be built on dialogue, not unilateral decisions.* Needless to state, our legitimate service and workplace concerns deserve timely and meaningful resolution.

The magnificent response of more than 2500 bank employees at Azad Maidan has once again demonstrated the strength of collective action and trade union unity.

We are united. We are determined. We shall continue the struggle until justice is achieved.

*5-DAY BANKING • FAIR PLI • RESPECT BILATERALISM!*

जब हक़ दबाया जाता है,
तब संघर्ष नज़र आता है।
जो मेहनत से नहीं डरता,
वही इतिहास बदलता है।

बारिश आई, हौसला नहीं डिगा—
Strike में एकता का परचम लहराया!

एकता हमारी ताकत है,
संघर्ष हमारी पहचान है!

इंकलाब ज़िंदाबाद!

An agreement must be honoured. A reward system must be fair.

#5DayWeekandFairPLI

The 5 Day Work Week for bank employees was agreed in the Bipartite Settlement of March 2024. Its implementation cannot remain pending indefinitely.

At the same time, a unilateral and discriminatory PLI framework that divides the workforce must give way to a fair, transparent and inclusive system for all employees.

Every achievement of our banks is the outcome of collective effort.

Recognition too must reflect that collective contribution.

We seek no privilege, only implementation of an agreed commitment, equality in reward and dignity at work.

@PMOIndia

[Nilesh Pawar @nilesh_pawar15]

PSBs TURNED THE STORY AROUND. DID EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION?

From 14.58% GNPA in March 2018 to just 1.93%, Public Sector Banks have delivered a historic turnaround—while achieving record profits with fewer hands.

Yet, 5-Day Banking remains pending, and the revised PLI framework raises serious concerns about employees being left with little or no incentive.

When success is collective, why should recognition be selective?

The people who delivered the turnaround deserve a system that recognises their contribution.

Implement 5-Day Banking. Make PLI fair, inclusive and collective-performance based.

India’s 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 institution’s 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.
@PMOIndia

[Nilesh Pawar @nilesh_pawar15]

The 5-Day Work Week, agreed in the March 2024 Bipartite Settlement, must be implemented without further delay.

An agreement must be honoured. A reward system must be fair.

PLI too must be fair, transparent and inclusive, recognising that every achievement of our banks is built on collective effort.

No privilege. No favour. Just fairness, implementation and dignity at work.

showroom behaved rudely and asked to bring article and will confirm the valuation later. This is the level of service I am getting for exchange after more than 7 months of effort

@CaratLane I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the delay and lack of communication concerning the exchange of my "Aquila Trellis Diamond Drop Earrings," which were purchased on November 2, 2023.

I have been trying to resolve this matter for over six months

After my last post mahanagar branch called me told me the value to exchange, since I was not in town I asked to come later and they confirmed new valuation will be informed on the day of exchange
Today on 17.04.2026 I have called for exchange valuation but

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.
#Approve5DayBankingNow

[Federation of Bank of India Officers' Associations @fboioa_india]

Why Bankers Demand #5DaysBanking 🏦
• 5-Days Banking was agreed in the 12th Bipartite Settlement — asking for implementation isn’t rebellion, it’s expectation.
• UPI, ATM, NEFT, RTGS already work 24×7 — apparently only humans need rest.
• Well-rested employees = fewer errors, faster service, better customer experience.
• Global banks follow it. Digital India supports it. Files alone resist it.
• Agreements signed, promises pending.

Reform delayed is reform denied.
Implement #5DaysBanking. Respect agreements. Respect bankers.

India has gone digital. Banking has gone 24×7. Only bankers are still stuck with a 6-day work week.
Modern systems demand modern work practices. Work-life balance is not a luxury—it’s essential for productivity, accountability, and better public service. Bankers deserve the same 5-day work structure followed across sectors.
Promises made must be promises kept.
