On this occasion we would like to apprise you about OUR UNIT “Bank of India Retirees’ Association”. We are, shouldering the welfare activities of the retirees of our Bank in the state of Maharashtra and Goa for last 28 years. Comrade, when we were in service, there were categories such as sub-staff, clerk, officer ....up to the Chairman of the Bank, but after retirement all are only ‘RETIREES’ of the Bank.
