The main issues raised by the student body include pending fee reimbursements and scholarships.

As a result of this bandh, there will likely be no classes in many colleges across Telangana on July 3 and 4. This could turn into an extended weekend, especially with falling on Friday, July 5, followed by Sunday on July 6. In total, college students may get up to four days off. (News18 Telugu)

For school students, a two-day holiday is expected. Muharram is an important observance in the Muslim community, and the Telangana government usually declares a general holiday for it. According to the 2025 state government calendar, July 5 (Saturday) is listed as an optional holiday, while July 6 (Sunday) is a general holiday. (News18 Telugu)

However, if the crescent moon is sighted late, July 7 (Monday) could also be declared a holiday. In such a case, schools and colleges may get an extended three-day weekend, which could be officially announced closer to the date. (News18 Telugu)

More holidays are expected this month with the arrival of the Bonalu festival, which holds cultural significance in Telangana. Key dates include Lashkar Bonalu on July 13 (Saturday), the Bonalu procession on July 14 (Sunday), and Lal Darwaza Bonalu on July 20 (Saturday). These events usually prompt local holidays in Hyderabad and nearby areas. (News18 Telugu)

Since the Bonalu festivities mostly fall on weekends, students may enjoy back-to-back days of rest. In some areas, authorities may also declare Monday (July 15 and 21) as a holiday, creating another long weekend. (News18 Telugu)

The string of holidays in July is expected to bring much-needed relief to students and teachers, especially after exams. It also offers families a chance to plan short trips or spend quality time together. (News18 Telugu)

Parents and students are advised to check with their respective educational institutions for confirmed holiday schedules. While government holidays offer a general guide, schools and colleges may follow their own academic calendars based on local conditions. (News18 Telugu)
