UP School Holiday 2024: The Uttar Pradesh government has released the annual holiday calendar for school-goers and office-goers. According to the calendar, there will be a total of 24 public and 31 unrestricted holidays in the year 2025. Most of the holidays fall on weekends, so children and office workers may be a little disappointed.
The official notice has mentioned that there will be no additional holiday in case any festival, celebration or birth anniversary of a great man falls on the same day. In 2025, 14 holidays will fall on Saturday and Sunday, so office workers and school children will not be able to avail the benefits of some holidays. Apart from this, the government has announced general holidays on national festivals like 26 January (Republic Day), 15 August (Independence Day) and 2 October (Gandhi Jayanti). Individuals can check the UP School Holiday Calendar 2025-2026 below.
