As per RBI banks are again close on April 2 due to the second Friday. While April 4 is Sunday. However, banks will be open to the public on April 3.

Banking sources told ANI that banks have done adequate preparation so that normal services for the public may not suffer and the public should not feel any inconvenience.

According to banking sources, people will not be able to deposit money/cheques physically at the banks, since nowadays most people and organisations use online banking for smooth transactions.
