Schools across India may follow different schedules on September 22, 2026, with holiday decisions largely depending on state notifications and individual school calendars.
The date coincides with Karam Puja, which has been listed as a holiday in the 2026 calendars of West Bengal and Assam. Government schools and state-controlled educational institutions in West Bengal are scheduled to remain closed on September 22 following a state government notification. Assam has also included the festival as a holiday in its official calendar.
However, there is no nationwide school holiday for September 22. Students and parents in other states will need to check notifications issued by their respective state governments or schools.
For Delhi-NCR, including Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad, September 22 is not automatically a school holiday based on the information available in the cited state calendars. Schools in the region may follow their regular academic schedules unless a separate holiday has been announced.
Private schools may also have their own calendars and local arrangements. Parents and students should therefore check the school's official website, app, circular or other communication channels before making plans.
