Besides, the union has demanded immediate withdrawal of the recent directives of the Department of Financial Services (DFS) on performance review and PLI, which threaten job security and create division amongst employees.

It further pitched to fill the post of workmen/officer directors in public sector banks and resolution of pending residual issues with IBA.

In a statement, All India Bank Officers' Confederation (AIBOC) said it has been proposed by the executive committee to go for a two-day nationwide strike, tentatively scheduled for February 24-25, 2025.
