The month of August has started and there is going to be a flurry of holidays in Punjab. Due to many special occasions coming together this month, people will be able to enjoy a long weekend. Especially on August 15, 16 and 17, there will be three consecutive holidays, due to which schools, colleges, government offices and banks will remain closed.
Know which holiday on which day:
August 15 (Friday): Independence Day – National holiday across the country
August 16 (Saturday): Janmashtami – Public holiday in many districts
August 17 (Sunday): Weekly holiday
In this way, people will get a long break of three days, which can be a golden opportunity to travel or spend time with family.
Crowds may increase at tourist places

If you are also thinking of travelling somewhere during these holidays, then make your plans now so that you can avoid last minute hassles.
