Bank strikes, holidays to affect banking services

Published by rajeshe092eb6a68

In these 6 days, public sector banks in India won’t be working for 5 days in total (there is an exception, which is mentioned later in this report).  Starting from today (Friday), banks are going to be on a spree of holidays/regular offs.  Monday (December 24) is the only day when the customers can get their works done at the banks.  

Here are the details of bank holidays/offs along with the reason: 

December 21 (Friday): All India Bank Officers’ Confederation has called for a strike.  Bank employees not affiliated to AIBOC are working today.  

December 22 (Saturday): Fourth Saturday off, which is a regular thing.  

December 23 (Sunday): It’s a no-brainer.  

December 25 (Tuesday): Merry Christmas, folks!  

December 26 (Wednesday): United Forum of Bank Unions has called for a strike.  Over 10 lakh bank employees will strike against the proposed mergers of state-run banks.
