Banks to shut on 2nd, 4th Saturdays

Bringing cheer to lakhs of bank employees, the government has accepted the long-pending demand of workers to declare second and fourth Saturdays holidays, with effect from September 1. At present, all PSU and private sector banks work half-day on Saturdays. "This s a welcome move. This will be a big relief to employees and I hope that this will improve the productivity," AIBEA general secretary C H Venkatachalam said. In case of a month having five Saturdays, banks will be closed only on second and fourth Saturdays.
