There are certain Holidays which are known as Gazetted Holidays. These Holidays are declared as per the circular issued by the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions. Gazetted Holidays have a great significance amongst both the Employers and the Employees. This is the time when they can schedule their Holidays, Functions, Events and Chores in advance. In the List of Gazetted Holidays 2nd and 3rd April are the dates to schedule any of your activities as these are followed by Saturday and Sunday, providing you a Perfect weekend. Then similar grouped Holidays come in 22nd and 24th October but here the difference is that you will have to take Friday as Holiday whereas in the former you would have to take Holiday on Saturday which is Holiday in many of the Organisations in India.
