The United Platform of IDBI Bank unions have served notice for a four-day strike, from March 28 to March 31.
Accounting for the intervening holidays on either side, the recess will extend for eight days, from March 25 to April 1, a representative of the unions said.
The strike notice was served on the Executive Director, Human Resources Department, IDBI Bank, on Thursday, and has been signed by AV Vithal Koteswara Rao, convenor of the United Platform.
It said that the unions want written assurance that the shareholding of the Centre in IDBI Bank will remain at not less than 51 per cent at all times as assured earlier on the floor of Parliament.
It also demanded that the wage settlement pending since November 2012 be implemented immediately.
The names of the unions participating in the strike have been given as All India IDBI Officers Association and IDBI Employees Association, Eastern Zone.
Meanwhile, employees are preparing to join the ‘Twitter Maha Login’ campaign for two days, from Saturday, against the move to dilute the Centre’s stake in the bank.
