Bank Holidays in Chhattisgarh during October

All the banks in Chhattisgarh will remain closed on the days mentioned above. The banks will not perform the usual functioning these days. All the banks including Vijaya Bank, IDFC Bank, Dena Bank, and Indian Bank will remain closed during the bank holidays.

Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti: It is a national holiday. Mahatma Gandhi was born in a Hindu merchant family in Porbandar, Gujarat. He is famously known as Bapu. The Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti is celebrated to commemorate the birth of Gandhi. He employed the non-violent civil disobedience movement for the first time in South Africa, where he practised law. He used the same tool during the freedom struggle in India against British colonial rule. He famously led his countrymen in challenging the British-imposed salt tax with Dandi Salt March in 1930. The United Nations (UN) General Assembly decided in the year 2007, that it has adopted a resolution to celebrate the birth anniversary of Gandhi by declaring the day the International Day of Non-Violence.

Mahalaya: It is a period of 16 days in the Hindu calendar wherein Hindus pay homage to their ancestors by performing certain rituals and offering food. It falls in the second paksha during the Hindu lunar month of Bhadrapada maasa. The period is considered to be inauspicious, as only the death rites of ancestors will be performed during this period. During this period all the banks will function normally and there will be no holiday.
