The Union Government designates national holidays which are generally observed all over the country, although they are mandatory only for Union Government institutions. State governments generally specify additional holidays depending on their demographics. For example, Guru Nanak Jayanti is a holiday in the North Western states of Haryana and Punjab, and in Delhi, but it is not a holiday in other states and territories where there is no significant Sikh population. Public holidays as specified by the Union Government (generally observed in the entire Union): 14 January- Makar Sankranti 26 January – Republic Day: transition of India from a British dominion to a sovereign republic in 1950 1 May – Labour Day 15 August – Independence Day: Marks the day India achieved independence from the British Empire 16 August Krishna Janmastami (Hindu) 10 September Eid ul-Fitr (calculated) 2 October – Gandhi Jayanti: Birthday of Mahatma Gandhi 5 November – Diwali (calculated) 16 to 19 November Eid al-Adha (calculated) 25 December – Christmas India is a multicultural and multireligious society and celebrates holidays and festivals of various religions. In addition to national holidays, many states and regions have local festivals depending on religious and linguistic demographics.
