Comrades,

The recent brutal assault on a lady Field Officer of SBI, Kannanalloor Branch, while she was performing her official duties, is not just an attack on one individual — it is a blow to the dignity and safety of the entire banking fraternity. Such violence against officers serving the public will not be tolerated under any circumstance.

AIBOC Kerala stands firm in condemning this barbaric act and declares uncompromising resistance to all forms of intimidation, assault, and disrespect towards bank officers. What happened in Kannanalloor is part of a disturbing trend — and we shall respond with unity, strength, and purpose. We urge every affiliate and member to join this collective protest and stand resolutely for justice and dignity. Let our voice shake the conscience of the society —

“When those who serve the public are unsafe, the system itself stands threatened.” ✊🏽

📍 Venue: Kollam Bus Bay, near Bishop Jerome Nagar
🕠 Time: 5:45 PM
📅 Date: 21 October 2025 (Tuesday)

The dharna will be inaugurated by Com. Mullakkara Retnakaran, Former Minister for Agriculture, Government of Kerala. The gathering will be addressed by Com. Biju T, State President AIBOC & President SBIOA (KC), and Com. Rajesh S, General Secretary SBIOA (KC).

Let this protest mark the beginning of a new resolve — that bankers will stand united, fearless, and firm against violence and injustice.

Together we defend our dignity !

In resistance and unity,
