R= Restricted Holiday, G= Gazetted Holiday

Will Bihar Government Office Remain Closed on All Listed Holidays?

A gazetted holiday is a holiday declared by the government, and all services are closed on these holidays. Restricted holidays work very differently. Only eligible employees can select the holidays from the approved list, subject to the applicable rules. Bihar's 2026 notification allows state government employees to avail themselves of up to three restricted holidays during the year. People should also remember that a government office holiday does not automatically mean every public service will be unavailable. Online services may continue to operate, while emergency services follow their own arrangements.
