Above news is widely publicized, now lets see what are items pending leave matters are almost settled, mostly on 16th they will be finalizing the medical insurance.

AIBOC vide its circular dt. 18.03.2015 has clearly informed that they have submitted their suggestions with regard to the pay scales and we know that IBA ‘s HR committee has met and discussed the pay scales. Now IBA may submit pay structure to unions and UFBU will definitely take some time to study them. So we may have to wait for another round of talks.

It may be worth mentioning, AIBOC has informed that it may take couple of rounds to conclude the bipartite.
