Bank officers to observe day's strike on June 8

Bangalore, Jan 4 (UNI) The bank officers under the umbrella of All India State Bank Officers' Federation will observe a day's strike on June eight to protest against State Bank of India (SBI) management, which was resorting to 'unilateral action' on issues concerning service conditions of the officers.

''The understandings reached on some of the issues, dating back to 2005, are yet to be implemented by the management,'' Federation General Secretary G D Nadaf said in a release issued here today.

He said the officers were observing 'work to rule' agitation from May first this year. The management had not shown any positive indication to resolve the issues.

The officers were not left with any other alternative but to go on strike, he said.

''All branches and offices throughout the country will remain closed on the day of the strike. We regret the inconvenience caused to the public,'' he added.
