In Mahabharath, it is concluded that "Karna" died mainly because of six reasons.
Likewise, the present day Bank retirees/pensioners are also suffering because of the following observed six reasons.
1.
The Govt. is not ready to come to the rescue of age old Bank
pensioners/retirees and not according minimum respect to the Senior
Citizens of the country.
2.
The IBA (Indian Bank Association) is acting against the interests of
the Bank pensioners/retirees and is with adamant attitude to settle
their demands.
3.
There is a cold war going on among the retiree organisations mainly to
prove their position, power and supremacy. There is no co-ordinantion
and unity among them.
4.
UFBU (United Forum of Bank Unions) totally failed to protect the
interests of the Bank pensioners/retirees and surrendered all their
welfare/interests to IBA and signed a record note having agreed for the
denial of retirees demands during 10th BPS period.
5.
The General Secretary of AIBEA betrayed all the Bank
pensioners/retirees as "SALYA" who is instrumental for the downfall of
"KARNA" in Mahabharath battle.
6.
Finally, IBA not invited the representatives of Bank retiree
organisations during the BPS talks to represent the retirees and to
appraise their genuine demands. Further, the court case are long
pending at various levels. Even the judgements received in favour of
retirees are also not honoured by the Banks and they are continuing
their litigation for the sake of litigation.
These are some of my observations after associating myself with this blog[ http:://bankpensioner.blogspot.com]for the last five years.
