The latest tally since my last update is 10041. Please refer my last update where in  I had indicated my target as 50000/100000. So the bank  pensioners  have to put five to ten times efforts to achive this target. The general opinion in bank circles is that signing this petition is not  going to get results. I am also aware about this.But what is wrong in trying ?.This whole universe is depending on hopes gor better things to happen. So bank pensioners have to support this petition.For this all bank pensioners who have not signed so far have to positively sign this petition. This does not require any costs and very easy to sign. So what is required is intention to sign.Total strength of bank pensioners now is around 5,00,000/(five lakhs).If 10 percent signs it will be 50000/.So acheiving 10to 20 percent is  not difficult. So I appeal/request the bank pensioners to wake up atleast now and give a try for signing.By signing you are helping yourselves. So why wait and sign this petition even though you might have signed some other such petition. I hope you appreciate my words and help yourselves by signing this petition.With regards.wishing all a happy Deepawali...M Kamalaksha Kini
