Eid-ul-Fitr will be observed as a restricted holiday instead of a gazetted holiday in Haryana this year on March 31, a government notification said. The modification was done as March 29 and March 30 are weekends and March 31 is the closing day of the financial year (2024-25), the notification issued on Wednesday said. "The Haryana Government has declared a restricted holiday under Schedule-II instead of a gazetted holiday on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr on March 31," an official statement released on Thursday said.
When asked about the government declaring the gazetted holiday for Eid-ul-Fitr on March 31 as a Restricted Holiday, the Chief Minister told the Reporters that since March 31 is the last day of the financial year, it is essential for departments to complete various financial transactions. He further assured that there is no restriction on anyone taking the Restricted Holiday. Wishing the people of the state on Eid ul-Fitr, he expressed that festivals are sacred to all of us, and we should celebrate them together in harmony.
