ReplyDeleteIt is a good beginning. Service Unions should always, as a matter of policy, take up the cause of Retirees. We are all duty bound to support
ReplyDeleteUFBU in all its action programme. Yesterday's strike was a total success. UFBU meets at Bangalore on 1oth August to take stock of the situation. All India Bank Retirees' Federation which is an umbrella organaisation for all the Retirees' Associations should effectively cordinate with UFBU to achieve the long pending issues of the retirees.
