BOPF proudly announces that the small movement started by handful of officers has taken a mass movement to support the merger. BOPF feels proud that within a short span of just over one month it has been able to give new direction to the bank trade unionism. The role of BOPF as a pressure group has been instrumental in passing of unanimous resolution by ABOA Mysore Unit in support of merger on 21st September 2008.
As per the statistics available through authentic sources, BOPF feel proud that huge number of officers across Associate Banks says big NO to the politically motivated call of the strike of 24th and 25th September 2008, which was meant to halt the merger process of Associate Banks with SBI. The data substantiate this, look at

The above data excludes the officers present in Head Offices, controlling offices, Treasury branches and several officers of big branches (who were present but not logged into the system). It is estimated that around 15-20% officers of SBM have attended branches on the two strike days. In terms of number of branches opened it is estimated that more than 15% of branches has been opened out of total of 644 branches of SBM.
In SBH also the % of total branches opened on strike day one crossed to 20%(of total 1051 branches) while it was more than 16% on strike day two.
The data also states that out of total 4700 branches of Associate banks around 13% of branches (of 5000branches of Abs) functioned on the 1st day of strike while on the second day of strike the percentage of branches opened was around 11% on second day of strike.
We once again salute the heroic non-participation move by the officers of Associate Banks and we firmly believe that this spirit will continue in any strike call given against merger. We also encourage officers to join the forum in large number so that your voice can be heard to the mute officer associations.

OPPOSE ANY STRIKE CALL AGAINST MERGER

I WISH THE ASSOCIATION TO TAKE THE MATTER OF WAGE REVISION WITH IBA AND EXPEDITE THE SETTLEMENT. If they drag on the issue mingling with the merger, golden opportunity will be lost as election is fast approaching and goverment is prepared for any hike, just like 6th pay commission. But, I did not see these so called dirty leader are no way concerned of it. Given an opporutunity, I will shoot these leaders, responsible for caste, religion and region based discrimination and not at all worried about the welfare of officers' faternity.
Dear friends,
Good attempt by Bank Officer Progressive Forum Blog in building of statistics of bankers opposed 2 days strike.

EVERYONE KNOWS THE FACT THAT NONE OF THE OFFICIALS/EMPLOYEES/STAFF OF SBI AND ABS WANTS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE INDEFINITE STRIKE, EXCEPT THE SELFISH LEADERS WHO ARE FIRST TIME FEELING THE THREAT TO THEIR POWERS. TILL DATEETHESE LEADERS HAVE ENJOYED THE PRIVILAGES OF TTHREATENING OFFICERS WITH UNCOMFORTABLE POSTINGS AND MANAGEMENTS HAVE ALWAYS SUCCUMBED TO THEIR PRESSURES RESULTING INTO LOW CONFIDENCE ON THE MANAGEMENTS. IT IS AN OPPORTUNITY THATT THE MANAGEMENTS SHOW THEIR LOYALTY AND INTEGRITY TOWARDS THE INSTITUTION BY COMING UP WITH A STRAGETY TO MAKE THIS CALL UNSUCESSFUL. THE CONTINGENCY PLAN SHOULD INCLUDE PROVISION OF PHYSICAL AND MENTAL SECURITIES TO LOYAL OFFICERS WHO WISH TO COME AND WORK, SO AS TO AVOID MASS EXODUS OF ESTEEMED CLIENTS FROM OUR BANKS, WHUCH MAY BY DEFAULT RESULT INTO ECONOMIC FAILURE OF OUR BANKS AND THEN ALL OF US WILL BE RENDERED UNEMLOYED.THE MANAGEMENTS SHOULD COME UP WITH INCENTIVES AND ASSURANCES TO NON-PARTICIPATING OFFICERS FOR NO HARASSEMENTS OF ANY KIND IN FUTURE ALSO . LET US ALSO FEEL THE GENUINESS OF MANAGEMETS TO CARRY ON BUSINESSES AND PUSH FOR THE GROWTH OF INSTITUTIONS WITH THE HELP OF LOYAL OFFICERS.
