State Bank of India, the country’s largest lender, could see services affected on March 28 and 29 after it was informed by the the Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) that All India Bank Employees Association (AIBEA), Bank Employees Federation of India (BEFI) and All India Bank Officers’ Association (AIBOA) all plan to go on strike on those dates.

The unions are opposing the government’s decision to privatise public sector banks, as well as their moves regarding the Banking Laws Amendment Bill 2021.

“We advise that while the bank has made necessary arrangements to ensure normal functioning in its branches and offices on the days of strike, it is likely that work in our bank may be impacted to a limited extent, by the strike,” SBI said in a regulatory filing.
