Dear Mr.Janarthanan
In Bihar there is a law called the Bihar Industrial Establishments (National and Festival Holidays and Casual Leave) Act, 1977. This regulates the grant of national and festival holidays in that State. I do not have a copy of this Act. I am not able to locate it in the net either. A thorough reading of this Act and the Rules framed there under is necessary to form a view on the applicability of this law to the establishment in which you are working.
With regards

If you know prominent persons in your circle, please collect document and send to me. I will be greatful to you sir.
Thanks in advance,

Dear Mr.Janarthanan
It is difficult to get a copy of the Bihar Act. If you can send the relevant extract through e mail (may be after scanning) probably I will be able to help you.

Dear Mr.V.HARIKRISHNAN,
Can the below reference be taken as reference for industries in states where there are no clear laws / rules to National / Festival Holidays?
INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT (STANDING ORDERS) CENTRAL RULES, 1946
10. Festival holidays and leave.--(a) There shall be seven paid festival holidays or as laid down in an agreement or an award in force. Out of these seven days, the Republic Day, Independence Day and Mahatma Gandhi’s Birthday shall be allowed without option and the rest of the days shall be fixed by agreement or local custom. Whenever a workman has to work on any of these holidays, he shall, at his option be entitled to either thrice the wages for the day or twice the wages for the day on which he work and in addition to avail himself of a substituted holiday with wages on any other day or as laid down in an agreement or an award in force.
Thanks & Regards

my query is different, Holiday like 26th Jan or Mahashivratri, is it a paid holiday, since they work on daily wages.

On such holidays when the establishment is not working, treat the daily wagers at par with the regular employees and pay them. There should not be any discrimination against the daily wagers. Republic Day, Independence Day, Gandhi Jayanti as well as the declared company-specific holidays are compulsorily paid holidays for all employees.
