Delhi: Representatives of the United Front of Nainital Bank Officers Association and Nainital Bank Staff Association met MP Anil Baluni (Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand) at BJP Headquarters Delhi to demand merger of Nainital Bank with Bank of Baroda.
The representatives of the organization apprised MP Anil Baluni about the current conditions of Nainital Bank and requested him to stop the disinvestment of Nainital Bank and take appropriate action for the merger of Nainital Bank with Bank of Baroda.
Taking cognizance of the application submitted by the organization, MP Anil Baluni said that this issue is in his priority and he assured that he will soon talk to the concerned ministry regarding the merger demand of the employees. Speaking further, MP Anil Baluni said that the BJP government is committed to the safe interests of the employees and customers of the bank.
Earlier in January 2024, a delegation of Nainital Bank Officers’ Association led by the MP met Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her office due to the long-standing demand of merger of Nainital Bank with Bank of Baroda, in which Finance Minister also assured appropriate action in this direction. However, due to the election process and the implementation of the Model Code of Conduct, action in this direction remained pending.
With the return of the NDA government for the third consecutive term, all the employees of Nainital Bank are hopeful of quick action on the organization’s demand related to the merger of Nainital Bank with Bank of Baroda.
In the Nainital Bank Officers Employees United Front delegation, Officers’ Association’s General Secretary Piyush Payal, Deputy General Secretary Praveen Rawat and Employees’ Association (NBSA)’s Deputy General Secretary Rajesh Pandey, and Manimala, Jatin Dua, Ramesh Pal, Dharam Singh and other colleagues were present.
