Due to these holidays, there may be problems in withdrawing cash, clearing cheques or other important banking work. Therefore, it is advisable that you complete your important work in the beginning of August itself. The good thing is that digital banking services like mobile banking, internet banking and ATMs will continue to work even during these holidays.
You can use them to do your important transactions. But keep in mind that holidays may be different in different states. Sometimes holidays may also change due to notifications from local or central government. Therefore, before going to the bank, definitely get information about holidays from your bank’s website or nearest branch. This will save your time and work will be done on time.
