Public Holiday: The Punjab government has announced a public holiday (gazetted holiday) across the state on Friday, May 30, 2025. This holiday has been declared on the occasion of Martyrdom Day of Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji. Due to this, all government offices, schools, colleges and other educational institutions in the state will remain closed.

Respect for religious faith and historical sacrifice

Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji was the fifth Guru of Sikhism. Whose martyrdom is considered a symbol of religious tolerance, patience and self-sacrifice. According to history, in the year 1606, Mughal Emperor Jahangir pressured him to accept Islam. But when he refused, he was martyred in Lahore after being tortured horribly. This day is still celebrated with deep respect and reverence in the Sikh community.

Opportunity for a three-day long holiday

This time the holiday is special because there is a three-day long weekend on 30 May Friday, 31 May Saturday (weekly holiday) and 1 June Sunday. This three-day holiday is providing a golden opportunity to spend time with family, travel or visit religious places.

Summer holidays are starting from 1 June

Summer vacation is starting in schools from 1 June. In such a situation, this three-day holiday is a sign of the beginning of long rest and wandering for children and parents. This time is not only an opportunity to get entertainment and freshness, but also to connect with religious and family values.
