THE Centre of Indian Trade Unions, in a statement issued on September 23, has extended support to the two days' strike called by four federations of bank officers unions in all the banks of the country on September 26-27, 2019 against the destructive decision of the BJP government on merger of public sector banks and imposition of burden on the people through so-called banking sector reforms. It is reported that unions of non-officer  employees of public sector banks are also planning strike action in banks against the same destructive decisions of the BJP government on merger of banks and other reforms in the month of October. CITU extends wholehearted support to all those actions to defend and protect the public sector banking network of the country from the ongoing onslaughts of the BJP government-private corporates destructive nexus. CITU calls upon the working class to stand in solidarity with bank employees’ struggles.
