- Banks Open Today: Despite being Sunday, all public sector banks will remain open today.
- Banks Closed for Next Three Days: Banks will remain closed from Monday to Wednesday due to the strike. In 10 years (after the 2016 demonetization), this is the first time banks are open on a Sunday.
- Relief on ATM Fees: During the strike, withdrawing cash from ATMs of all public sector banks, including SBI and PNB, will not incur any charges, even if the free withdrawal limit has been exhausted.
- Main Reason for Strike: Bank employees are demanding a fixed date for implementing the 5-day work week (2 days off per week).
- Unions Participating in the Strike: 7 major unions (AIBEA, AIBOC, etc.) are participating in this strike, covering more than 90% of the employees.
- Government's Stance: According to the Ministry of Finance, no promise was made regarding a five-day work week. Additionally, a deadlock persists between the government and trade unions over the new rules for the PLI scheme (bonus) for Scale-4 and above officers.
