Ludhiana, December 13

On a call given by the United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU), as part of the agitation programme of the all India bank strike on December 16 and 17, employees held a massive protest demonstration in front of the State Bank of India, Fountain Chowk, here today.

The demonstration was addressed by several union leaders, who opposed the bank privatisation move of the government.

Naresh Gaur, the union convener, said, “Recently, in another jolt, the Centre Government has decided to privatise two public sector banks.”

“It has, therefore, become inevitable for the United Forum of Bank Unions to protest in order to draw attention of the government and managements towards privatisation. We seek support of the people for our agitation and fulfilment of our demands,” Gaur added.
