Government urges bank employees to refrain from strikes

Government urges bank employees to refrain from strikes, resolve issues through dialogue and ensure uninterrupted banking services.
The appeal comes ahead of the three-day nationwide strike by the United Forum of Bank Unions and other unions and associations in Public Sector Banks from September 28 to 30. The unions are seeking five-day banking and withdrawal of the Performance Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme.
Ministry of Finance says the government has decided to keep the PLI scheme in abeyance following discussions.
