The AIBEA and BEFI banners for October 22nd strike(exclusively for merger of banks alone) and related dharna programmes are released.We are not able to understand the real reasons behind the strike,at this juncture.AIBOC/AIBOA has already deferred its strike,based on the assurance of formation of commitee by Finance secretary.The committee will look look into the issues arising out of merger of 10 banks.Now,what AIBEA and BEFI want from the govt?Are they not satisfied with the assurance of the govt?what else they want with respect to merger of banks?Definitely,there is confusion within UFBU,which is not resolved till date.The bipartite talks are slated during this month end.We don't know whether 5 day week,increase in wage load and pension updation issue will be taken up and resolved.One thing is to be seen .Whether next bipartite itself will be materialise or not ,no one can predict.If UFBU is not able to achieve its charter of demands now,it could be never be achieved in future.There appears to be deep differences within the constituents of UFBU.Another thing is NCBE has not joined the merger strike.Why?UFBU appears to be fragmented and unilateral.The Modi govt.is very fast in its financial sector reforms and at this rate,procuring a reasonable wage package and pension updation appears to be a tough task,which requires solidarity and total unity within UFBU.Will it happen?
