This day holds particular significance as it allows for a three-day break, and if an additional day off is taken, it can result in a ​four-day long weekend. It is an excellent opportunity to plan ahead, embrace joy, and indulge in leisure activities.

Moreover, January 16th, 2024, has been declared a government holiday in observance of Thiruvalluvar Day. The subsequent day, Wednesday, January 17th, 2024,​ is also a public holiday, celebrated as Farmer’s Day. This arrangement provides five consecutive days of respite.

Looking ahead, Good Friday will be observed on Friday, March 29th, 2024. This occasion grants a three-day holiday, including the weekend of Saturday and Sunday. Similarly, Bakrid will occur on Monday, June 17th, 2024, providing another three-day holiday ​period encompassing the weekend.

CG Offices Holidays 2024 in Chennai

Central Govt Office Holidays 2024 in Tamil Nadu: The Central Government Employees Welfare Coordination Committee – GST Chennai recently engaged in discussions, during which representatives from the Postal Department and Indian Air Force Station, Tambaram put forth a proposal. They suggested that Vinayagar Chathurthi, even though it falls on a Saturday, should be included in the list of closed holidays. This is because their offices operate six days a week, unlike other department offices which function for five days and consider Saturday as a holiday. After careful consideration, the committee has approved the proposal and decided to observe three additional holidays, in addition to the compulsory 14 holidays, for Central Government Offices situated in Chennai. These holidays are as follows:
1. Pongal – 15th January 2024 (Monday)
2. Vinayaga Chathurthi – 7th September 2024 (Saturday)
3. Additional Holiday for Dussehra – 11 October 2024 (Friday)
