Bank strike on Wednesday, services may be hit
 "Since negotiations with IBA failed, employees have no other option than going on strike," said United Forum of Bank Unions Convener M V Murali.

 
NEW DELHI: Normal banking operations like cheque clearance in public sector banks are likely to be hit on Wednesday as employee unions have decided to go on one-day nation-wide strike to press for wage revision.

"Since negotiations with Indian Banks' Association (IBA) failed, employees have no other option than going on strike," United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU) Convener M V Murali told PTI.

"We have scaled down our demand from 25 per cent to 23 per cent (wage hike), but IBA is not yielding. It has been sticking to its earlier offer of 11 per cent which is not enough," Ashwini Rana, General Secretary of National Organisation of Bank Workers, said.

Banks, including the country's largest one SBI, has already informed customers about the inconvenience they are likely to face tomorrow
 Comment:  UFBU has given a notice to IBA calling for nationwide bank strike on the November 12 and All-India State Bank Officers' Federation and All-India State Bank of India Staff Federation being a part of UFBU will also participate in the said strike.
