GUWAHATI: The State Government has officially approved the holiday list for the upcoming year 2024.
The announcement was made during a press conference following a cabinet meeting held in Guwahati on Tuesday.
According to the newly released holiday calendar, Assam's state government employees will enjoy a diverse array of holidays. These holidays have been categorized into three distinct types.
A total of 36 days have been designated as gazetted holidays, 30 restricted holidays and two days are set aside as half holidays.
Furthermore, in a bid to accommodate local customs and traditions, the government has granted District Commissioners (DCs) the authority to declare one day as a Local Holiday, provided it holds local significance. This option, however, is not available in Kamrup (Metro) District.
