First holiday in Uttar Pradesh on 24th, now 25th November

Earlier in UP, the government had declared holiday on Guru Tegh Bahadur Martyrdom Day on 24th November, but now the date has been changed to 25th November. Principal Secretary (General Administration) Manish Chauhan issued the order and said that this amendment was made after discussions at the government level. Now there will be holiday in entire Uttar Pradesh only on 25th November. That means we got a long weekend on Tuesday instead of Monday!

So get ready, sit at home on 25th November and remember the martyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji and spend quality time with your family. This holiday is not just a holiday, but a remembrance of a great sacrifice.
