Holiday |
No substitute holiday should be allowed if any of the festival holidays initially notified subsequently happen to fall on a weekly off or any other non-working day or in the event of more than one festival falling on the same day.
If there is any change in the date of Id-Ul-Fitar, Id-Ud-Joha, Maharam, Fateha-Duaz-Doham, Sab-E-Barat depending on the Moon, holiday will be declared separately for the date on which the festival would be actually observed in lieu of the date originally notified as holiday for these festivals. In such a situation, announcement of the state Govt. through TV/AIR/News Paper will be followed.
Every teacher and non-teaching staff shall abide by the orders or circulars issued by the concerned authority as to participate collectively and individually in National programs or events like Republic Day, Independence Day, Tagore’s birthday etc and cultural events like drama sports exhibition held within the institutions and extend his support to the best of his ability in the interest of joyful learning by the students and to generate a congenital atmosphere in the institution.
Heads of the institution are hereby being instructed to maintain a separate record of staffs attending school on “observable days”.
