Banking operations in Karnataka partially affected by strike
March 15, 2021
Banking operations in Karnataka were affected at the branch level by the two-day strike called by the All India Nationalised Bank Officers’ Federation (AINBOF) on March 15 and 16 to oppose the Centre’s move to privatise public sector banks which was announced in the Budget 2021.. RRB unions have joined the strike and are demanding implementation of the 11th bipartite settlement.
“The services affected were cheque collection and clearing. However, at zonal, regional and head offices, operations were normal,” said a senior bank officer.
AINBOF is the largest trade union focused on the welfare of officers of the nationalised banks.
