As I am working as an HR executive with a real estate company, I need some information regarding Election Day. I want to ask, is there any holiday for private companies in Delhi/Noida on 10th April 2014?

Hi Seniors, I have the same question. My organization has only 20% of voters in Tamil Nadu; the rest are from outside Tamil Nadu where the voting dates are different. What should we do as an organization? Please suggest.
