Tamil Nadu Government staff to get lesser holidays in 2014
Posted on: 20/Nov/2013 11:04:25 AM
The Tamil Nadu Government on Tuesday released the list of public holidays for 2014. There will be a total of 21 public holidays next year, down from 24 this year. In 2014, Milad un-Nabi and Pongal will be on the same day Tuesday,January 14. Four festivals fall on Sundays. But government employees can expect some respite in the form of an extended weekend in October. They will get four holidays, including Saturday and Sunday, besides Gandhi Jayanti and Ayudha Puja, on October 2 (Thursday) and Vijaya Dasami on October 3 (Friday). Bakrid is on the following Sunday. But they will lose two days as Gandhi Jayanti and Ayudha Puja are on the same day and Bakrid is on a Sunday (October 5).
This is in contrast to the current year, when in January there were 13 holidays. Republic Day, Mahaveer Jayanti and Krishna Jayanti too will be on Sundays in 2014 while only Tamil New Years Day and Ayudha Puja were on Sundays in 2013. Offices will be closed for three days at a stretch in March next year. There will be two three-day holidays in April and a threeday holiday in August.
