RBI staff to go on mass casual leaves over pension issues

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], Aug 21 (ANI): The United Forum of Reserve Bank Officers and employees has announced that its members will observe two days mass casual leave on September 4 and 5, in a bid to press for their long-pending demands over pension related issues.

The United Forum claimed that they have been raising the matter for the last one decade but no desired action has been taken in this regard.

Speaking to ANI, RBWU chief secretary G Jagdish said, "In the past, during demonstrations, we were assured that soon our problems will be solved but of no avail. We want our share of money back."

The forum will also submit a memorandum to the respective regional directors of all Reserve Bank of India (RBI) centres on August 27 which includes the demands of updation of pension, re-opening of option for the pension for contributory provident fund retainers and allow CPF/additional provident fund for those recruited from 2012, among other demands.
