The two-day strike of United Forum of Bank Unions for wage revision of employees ended here on Saturday.

The employees held demonstrations in front of their respective branches holding placards and asking the Indian Banks' Association to fulfil their demands.

As per reports, their demands include 20 per cent salary hike, introduction of five-day week, merger of special allowance with basic pay, scrapping of the new pension scheme, updating of pension scheme, allocation to staff welfare fund based on operating profits and defined working hours for officers.
