Honoured to address the Triennial General Conference of the Central Bank of India Officers’ Association at Kota and deeply grateful for the warm reception and solidarity.
Highlighted the pressing concerns facing bank officers today — the long-pending demand for Five-Day Banking, a fair and transparent PLI framework, growing concerns around Work-Life Balance, rising workload and accountability, and the need to protect the dignity and legitimate rights of officers.
The challenges before us demand unity, solidarity and collective action through UFBU. @fboioa_india remain firmly committed to strengthening Public Sector Banking while ensuring justice, dignity and welfare for every bank officer.

Today, we commemorate the 57th Anniversary of Bank Nationalisation , a landmark moment that strengthened financial inclusion, expanded access to banking, and contributed significantly to India's socio-economic development.

Respect is never a one-way street. If someone chooses to show disrespect, they cannot expect respect in return. No one is obligated to be holier than the priest.
As is the evil so is the remedy. Respect earns respect, and contempt invites consequences.

The Government should take note: the demand for a 5-Day Banking Week is so dear to bankers that even at 13,859 ft, they carry that message and proudly unfurl its flag.

जो साथी आज भी यह सोचकर संगठन के साथ खुलकर खड़े नहीं होते कि "प्रबंधन क्या सोचेगा", उन्हें याद रखना चाहिए-प्रबंधन ने कभी आपकी चुप्पी को वफादारी नहींबल्कि कमजोरी समझा है।
चुप रहने वालों को अक्सर वही मिलता है जो बोलने वालों के संघर्ष के बाद बच जाता है।जो घर का नहीं, वो किसी का नहीं
Banking sector can't thrive on profitability matrix alone.Its true success is when people feel respected,supported, & heard. Unions & management must foster a culture where mental health can be given importance, else, tragedies will continue & industry will keep on flourishing
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.

Lack of clear advancement opportunities is a leading cause of voluntary turnover, with many employees quitting due to perceived inequities & favouritism. A transparent and logical promotion process is essential to eliminate favoritism, build trust, and motivate employees.
Thanks to Madam Hon'ble FM for your advice to bankers which Officers' Association was repeatedly pursuing in last 2/3 years.Though very late but still your advice will instill some introspection within them. what Officers' Association thinks today others think tomorrow .
Indian Economy can't move an inch without PSBs : for that they don't want to keep Bankers out of sight. But Bankers assured to work daily 40 mnts more in lieu of 2 more Saturdays off. Even then what's the problem ? Make it clear to common bankers.
