 Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 6: Post this, a grand Cake-cutting Ceremony was organized at the Jammu Office of J&K and Ladakh UT Unit which witnessed a huge presence of Officers who are Members of All India Bank Officers' Confederation (AIBOC). Secretary J&K and Ladakh UT Unit of All India Bank Officers' Confederation (AIBOC) Mr. Rajesh Mehta while addressing the Audience advised that as we celebrate the 41st Foundation Day of the All India Bank Officers' Confederation (AIBOC), we relive and retrieve the visionary attributes that outlined a collective movement and traversed through a landscape of highs and lows, suffering setbacks as well tasted fulfilment to cross the milestones of sustainability and credibility scripting a saga of resilience and sacrifice where the ideals of democracy, solidarity, inclusiveness, and justice, have all along been at its core.
AIBOC's glorious history is a glaring chronicle of sacrifice and commitment, a journey that stood rock-solid against onslaughts of time and stood defiant to safeguard the integrity of public sector entities while ensuring that banking remains an instrument of social transformation, economic empowerment, and national prosperity.
While challenges persist, from privatisation efforts to pressure on autonomy of Banks, our response remains constructive and forward-looking. We shall continue to champion the cause of strong, sustainable, and people-centric public sector banking, promoting transparency, accountability, and resilience.
We reaffirm our solidarity with comrades in private sector and foreign banks who continue to struggle for fair labour practices and we indorse our commitment to the banking fraternity regardless of sectorial status/holdings to uphold dignity, fairness, and trade union rights for all alike
We remain resolute in our demand for fairness in all aspects of officer service conditions. Issues such as Performance Linked Incentive (PLI) disparities must be addressed equitably so that every officer's contribution is recognized and rewarded without artificial divisions. We take pride in the outstanding performance of PSBs, which continue to post strong growth across all business parameters while driving financial inclusion and innovation.
As banking rapidly transforms through Artificial Intelligence (AI), automation, and digital innovation, AIBOC envisages a future-ready officer cadre, technologically proficient, yet firmly anchored in empathy, ethics, and trust. We champion responsible innovation, continuous learning, and upskilling to ensure that while technology advances, the human touch and trust, the very essence of public sector banking, remain at the core of financial services. At the same time, we remain committed to ensure job security of employees remains integral in all such transformations.
Lastly, we salute our past leaders for their contribution to the movement, honour the dedication of our comrades, and rededicate ourselves to the collective cause of officers' welfare and for strengthening the Banking Sector for augmenting national progress.
