Dear All,

Kindly share the notification to declare a holiday for the elections in Karnataka. Additionally, I'd like to confirm whether declaring a holiday for this purpose is mandatory. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Madhu.T.K

In Karnataka, unlike other states, the Karnataka Industrial Establishments National and Festival Holidays Act itself has a provision that election day should be declared a holiday. Please refer to section 3A of the Act.
