In Assam, the closure is to mark the Janmotsav of Srimanta Sankardeva, a celebrated cultural and religious figure. Kerala banks will observe the holiday in honor of Sree Narayana Guru Samadhi Day, which commemorates the revered social reformer and spiritual leader.
These holidays lead to the suspension of regular banking operations in the respective states for the day. Customers are advised to plan their transactions accordingly, as government and private bank branches will not be available for service on September 21.
The Reserve Bank of India and state banking authorities have listed these regional holidays in the official schedule for the year. Banking services in other states will continue as normal on this date.
