Long weekends in 2027

What kinds of holidays exist in Bihar?

The state notifies general holidays, when all state offices and revenue courts close, and a list of restricted holidays, of which an employee can pick up to three. Bihar is known for long breaks around Durga Puja and Chhath, and schools often close for most of the period between Diwali and Chhath.
