Bank Holidays Alert: If you have any important work to the bank then this news is useful for you. Banks are going to be on holiday in many states in the beginning of May. Especially on May 1, banks will remain closed at many places due to International Workers’ Day and Maharashtra Day.

In which states will the holiday be affected?

Banks will remain closed in states like Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Telangana and West Bengal on May 1. However, banks may remain open in Gujarat, Odisha, Chandigarh, Sikkim, Rajasthan, Nagaland and Meghalaya. Therefore, before going out, definitely check the status of your city.

Problems may increase due to continuous holidays

After this, banks will remain closed across the country due to 2nd May being the second/fourth Saturday and 3rd May being a Sunday. This means that banking work may get stuck for 2-3 consecutive days, due to which people may face problems.

Online banking will remain operational

The good thing is that even during the holidays, online banking services like UPI, Net Banking and Mobile Banking will remain operational 24×7. You can also withdraw cash from ATM, but work like check clearance or draft will not be possible.
