But in compliance with the long-standing demand, we have decided to give those two days full leave.
The Chief Minister also said, 'We observe everything. We think that Bengal is the meeting place of everything in Sarvadharma Sarvakarma. Bengali does not deprive anyone. But now if someone thinks that there is something or other for 365 days, we cannot give it. So when will the work be done? But if you work well, you can expect a good holiday.
At the same time, the Chief Minister said, "Those who are government employees can expect a holiday on a special day if they do good work. Maternity leave in our state is 731 days. There is also a month of paternity leave. We do as much as possible."
