In a recent directive from the Finance Department (Audit Branch) of the Government of West Bengal, it has been announced that various governmental entities will be closing early on June 12th, 2024 (Wednesday). This closure, scheduled for 2.00 PM, applies to all state government offices, local bodies, statutory bodies, boards, corporations, undertakings, and educational institutions under government purview. However, it’s worth noting that the offices of the Registrar of Assurances and Collector of Stamp Revenue in Kolkata are exempt from this early closure. This adjustment in operating hours is in reverence for Jamai Shasthi, a cherished Bengali tradition celebrating the bond between sons-in-law and their families. This gesture reflects the government’s commitment to honoring cultural observances while ensuring the smooth functioning of essential services. Citizens are encouraged to plan their activities accordingly in light of this temporary adjustment in government office hours. This notification was published on June 7, 2024.
