The month of April 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting one for students across India, offering a plethora of holidays due to significant festivals and cultural observances. With school closures on the horizon, let's take a detailed look at what students can expect during this holiday-packed month.
April will witness multiple public holidays, including:
- April 6 (Sunday): Ram Navami
- April 10 (Thursday): Mahavir Jayanti
- April 13 (Sunday): Baisakhi
- April 14 (Monday): Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Jayanti
- April 18 (Friday): Good Friday
These holidays will lead to a significant number of days off for students, enabling them to enjoy the festivities alongside their families. In Uttar Pradesh, for instance, schools will remain closed for several occasions throughout April:
- April 6 - Ram Navami
- April 10 - Mahavir Jayanti
- April 13 - Baisakhi
- April 14 - Bhimrao Ambedkar Jayanti
- April 18 - Good Friday
Rajasthan will follow a similar closure schedule, with holidays on:

- April 10 - Mahavir Jayanti
- April 11 - Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Jayanti
- April 13 - Baisakhi
- April 14 - Bhimrao Ambedkar Jayanti

In addition to these festivities, there are additional holidays to note. Multiple states, including Uttar Pradesh, will observe March 31 as a holiday for Eid-ul-Fitr, which allows students to kick off their break a bit earlier. The holiday dates are:
- Uttar Pradesh: March 31 (one day)
- Bihar: March 31 (one day)
- Uttarakhand: March 31 (three days)
- Madhya Pradesh: March 31 (one day)
- Haryana: March 31 (one day)
- Rajasthan: March 31 (one day)
- West Bengal: March 31 and April 1 (two days)
Looking ahead to the summer break, students in Uttar Pradesh can expect their summer vacations to commence from May 20 to June 15, 2025. This means that not only will students receive breaks during the festive April but can also anticipate a well-earned summer hiatus shortly after.
With these multiple holidays set to enrich the school calendar, families are encouraged to plan their activities and experiences around the cultural celebrations. This April promises to be filled with enjoyment, traditions, and ample opportunities for relaxation before the warm summer months set in.
As students look forward to these holidays, it's important to remember the significance of these observances, aligning with cultural values and communal harmony. The upcoming period will surely offer memorable moments for students and families across the nation.
