AGARTALA, October 28 (TIWN): On the call given by United Forum of Bank Unions, officers and employees in all the public sector banks are observing All India One Day Strike on November 12, demanding immediate wage revision and to stop unnecessary banking reforms.
In the chain of agitational programmes framed by United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU), UFBU (Tripura State Chapter) today holds a six hour long sit-in-demonstration at Paradise Chowmuhuni.
Addressing the bank employees, leaders of the Forum said that it was decided by the UFBU to withdraw all types of extra co-operation by workmen/officers with immediate effect and to boycott all meetings called for by the bank managements after normal office hours.
They further said that it is two years since we submitted our charter of demands. While 13 rounds of negotiations have taken place, there is no satisfactory process in the talks because of the negative attitude of the IBA/Government.
Everyone is aware that employees and officers in the banking sector are doing their best to serve the customers and implement various schemes of the government despite innumerable hardships and difficulties. Yet, the genuine demand for adequate wage revision is being delayed and denied, they mentioned.
Even though we have shown our willingness to adopt a flexible approach in order to finalize the settlement expeditiously, the same is not being reciprocated by the IBA. Thus, once again, we have been pushed to the path of agitation and struggle, they added.
