Why is there a Christmas holiday?
Christmas is the festival of the birth of Jesus Christ, celebrated with great enthusiasm and joy every year on December 25th across the world. On this day, prayers are held in churches, people exchange greetings, and homes are decorated. Many parts of India, especially the northeastern states, experience special Christmas enthusiasm. This festival gives the message of love, peace, and brotherhood.
RBI guidelines
According to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) bank holiday list, banking service counters will be closed across the country on Christmas Day, meaning all branches will remain closed. Customers will not be able to clear their checks, deposit or withdraw cash, or perform other branch-related tasks. However, the relief is that despite the bank closures, UPI, mobile banking, internet banking, and ATM services will remain operational as usual. Customers will be able to perform online transactions, bill payments, and ATM cash withdrawals.
