A purported email written by the Deputy Zonal Manager of Bank of Maharashtra's Navi Mumbai zone is going viral on social media. The purported email by K Manikandan, AGM/DZM of Bank of Maharashtra's Navi Mumbai zone, states that no leave will be sanctioned or granted to any staff member on Friday, December 26. The photo of the purported email was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by a user named Nitin Tyagi. "In order to have smooth closing as of 31.12.2025m it is advised not to sanction leave to your staff member as on the mentioned date," the mail by the DZM of Bank of Maharashtra's Navi Mumbai zone states. The mail comes as banks will remain closed on Thursday, December 25, for Christmas and on Saturday and Sunday, December 27 and 28, on account of the second Saturday of the month and weekend holiday. With this, bankers are likely to take a leave on Friday, December 26, to spend time with their families and loved ones. Soon after a picture of the alleged mail surfaced online, netizens took to the comments section to share their views. A few users slammed the DZM's decision to cancel leave or not grant leave on December 26, while a few others defended the decision. One user said, "I feel the leave was denied to ensure that the public does not face any inconvenience", while a second one wrote, "Customers have to suffer due to such long weekends".

Union Should Come Forward for Such Days and Demand Holiday, Says X User
If Unions are anything, they should come forward for such days and demand holiday.
Somehow everyone in industry wants bankers just to suffer no matter wtf we do.

Social Media Users Defend Bank of Maharashtra DZM's Decision Over Leave Cancellation
I disagree. I feel the leave was denied to ensure that the public does not face any inconvenience. If the entire bank staff were to go on leave at the same time, the bank would have to be closed, which would directly impact customers.

No Commitment to Clients and Public, Says X User
Utter idiocy, no commitment to clients and public, not even empathy for the staff which has to cover workload after 3 days of holidays.
Bus come to SM write negative about management who just wants to run BAU ensuring least impact to customers.

Customers Have To Suffer Due to Such Long Weekends
I disagree. Customers have to suffer due to such long weekends. There should be a cap on such combined long weekends. The employees could take a min no. in a year , so everyone gets a chance
