How to get a 5-day consecutive holiday in October

Collected

Bangla Press Desk: The autumnal Durga Puja festival is approaching in October. While the occasion brings a two-day holiday, you can easily extend it into a five-day break.
The Durga Puja holidays begin on October 20. This government holiday falls on a Tuesday, followed by another holiday on October 21; effectively, there is time off on both Tuesday and Wednesday.
This creates a perfect opportunity: by utilizing just one day of casual leave, government employees can secure a continuous five-day vacation.
If one takes a day of casual leave (CL) on Thursday, October 22, it will combine with the weekly holidays on October 23 and 24 (Friday and Saturday). Consequently, government employees can enjoy a consecutive five-day break spanning from Tuesday to Saturday.
According to the government calendar, the Durga Puja holidays commence on October 20. October 20 is designated as a holiday by executive order for Maha Navami, while the following day, October 21, is a general holiday for Vijaya Dashami.
