Telangana School Holidays in August: Every Sunday, children get excited about the holidays, because they don’t have to go to school. As, they can spend time with their family and have fun with their friends, that’s why they are happy. And if there is another holiday in the middle of the week. Also along with that if some other holidays come together on Sunday and the weekend turns into a long weekend. Not only children but also working adults get excited. Such holidays are coming next month (August 2025).
After the summer vacations end in June and schools start, there are no real holidays. June month has been a burden for students. There are no major holidays in July either. Only the second Saturday and Sunday are holidays. In Telangana, a holiday has been given for Bonalu festival on July 21. But in AP, this too is not the case. Although there is an official holiday for Muharram festival, it is falling on Sunday (July 6). So it is like missing a holiday.
August is bringing hope to students who are suffering from the lack of holidays. This month, there are huge holidays not only for students but also for employees. Many of these holidays are turning into long weekends as they coincide with Sundays. Children and adults are getting consecutive holidays. The weather is also pleasant with rains, so you can plan a good holiday tour. Take a look at the Telangana School Holidays in August.
As July ends, whether we will enter August or not will come on Sunday (August 3). Another four days later, another holiday: On August 8, i.e. Friday, there is a holiday in both Telugu states on the occasion of Varalakshmi Vratham. However, this is an optional holiday. Especially Hindu women perform special pujas to the goddess that day. Therefore, there will be a holiday for schools run by Hindutva organizations. Employees can also take leave if they feel it is necessary.
Some educational institutions have two days off on Saturday and Sunday. Similarly, IT and corporate companies also have two days off a week. If Friday is a holiday for students and employees of such schools, then three consecutive days of holidays, the weekend turns into a long weekend.
Rakhi is a festival of sibling bonds and intimacy. In AP and Telangana, this festival is celebrated with great joy by siblings. This time, Rakhi is coming on August 9. That is, the day after Varalakshmi Vratham is also an optional holiday in the Telugu states. Sunday joins these two-day holidays- that is, three consecutive days of holidays. However, this holiday does not apply to all students. Only some schools may have holidays on August 8 and 9.
Independence Day is one of the festivals celebrated by Indians irrespective of caste and religion. On August 15, the day the country gained independence, all the people of the country salute the fluttering national flag and sing the national anthem. These celebrations are celebrated in every school and government office. After that, students and employees have a holiday.
This time, the Parsi New Year is coming on the same day, August 15. With this, the Telangana and Andhra Pradesh governments have declared it as an optional holiday. But anyway, there is a holiday on the occasion of Independence Day.. So all the students and employees will have a holiday.
The majority of people in India are Hindus. So there are holidays for important Hindu festivals. For example, August 16 (Saturday) is the birthday of Shri Krishna, and is celebrated as Krishnashtami. So on the occasion of Shri Krishnashtami, there is a holiday for educational institutions and employees in Telugu states.
Thus, Friday, August 15, Saturday, August 16 are holidays. And Sunday, August 17 is a holiday anyway. Thus, three consecutive days of holidays come together and become a long weekend. These three days are holidays not only for children but also for working parents. So the whole family can plan any trip.
Vinayaka Chavithi is coming at the end of August. During this festival, every street in the Telugu states turns into a temple. The youth make a fuss by installing idols of Lord Vinayaka. In view of this festival, there is a holiday for schools and offices in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh on August 27 (Wednesday).
National holidays, festivals, Sundays, all of these combined are coming up with huge holidays in August. August 8,9,15,16,27 are special holidays. August 3,10,17,24.31 are Sunday holidays. In total, there are ten days of holidays coming up. The second Saturday, Parsi New Year holidays have been combined with other holidays. Otherwise, there would have been two more days of holidays in addition.
However, there are heavy rains in August. So if there are continuous torrential rains and flooding conditions, schools and colleges will have additional holidays. And if there are bandhs and dharnas, there will be sudden holidays. Thus, Telugu students will have holidays in August.
