If you need money then go and get it from the ATM today as there is harassment in store for people due to Bharat Bandh. The Bank unions have also decided to participate in the strike. The All India Bank Employees` Association (AIBEA) on Tuesday announced its decision to join the 26th November 2020 strike. 

"The Lok Sabha in its recently held session has passed three new labour enactments by dismantling existing 27 enactments in the name of `Ease of Business`, which are purely in the interest of corporates. In the process, 75 per cent of workers are being pushed out of the orbits of labour laws since they will have no legal protection under the new enactment," the AIBEA said in a release.

The AIBEA, which has four lakh bank employees from several public and old private sector and some foreign banks as its members, represents most of the banks barring State Bank of India and Indian Overseas Bank.

As per the press release, nearly 30,000 bank employees from 10,000 bank branches of public sector banks, old generation private sector banks, regional rural banks and foreign banks in Maharashtra will participate in the strike.
